Just want it all to stop.

[mn15]

I just want everything to stop. The feelings, the guilt, the anxiety, the food stuff just all of it. I just want my brain to stop to just be quiet.

Isn’t that the truth. I would love to have just a moment or two without having to be tormented by the worry and anxiety. Just a moment of peace and quiet would be much appreciated.

Me too! To just feel relaxed, no worries, feeling ok with myself and life! It would be awesome!

I feel when I'm out and about, visiting friends for example, I come close to that state. (Unfortunately often, as soon as I'm back home the anxiety kicks in again...)

I wish I could just drop everything and go away for a while. When does this feeling ever go away? I just always want to disappear.

[mn15 in reply to its_Gi_again]

Yes! I wish I could just go... I’ve thought about it so many times but then once again the guilt kicks in! It’s a never ending cycle.

[its_Gi_again in reply to mn15]

I hate that stupid never ending cycle. My anxiety is kicking in right now because I didn't finish yet another school assignment... definitely want to disappear.

[mn15 in reply to its_Gi_again]

I’m a teacher,so believe me we feel the anxiety too.

[its_Gi_again in reply to mn15]

I know you do, and I'm sorry. I just don't know what to do anymore about school. As a teacher, if I've been open and honest about where I am mentally with my professor but still unable to do the work successfully, what do I do now? I've been given understanding and chances and I keep blowing it. I feel so ashamed I almost don't even want to go to class; I'm just so embarrassed. I've had time, this is my fault. I just don't know how to be a student anymore with such a messed up mind

[mn15 in reply to its_Gi_again]

You need to say that to your teachers. Again, they will keep helping as long as your trying to help yourself too.

[its_Gi_again in reply to mn15]

But I've told them already. And I just can't be a student. I'm halfway through the semester, how can I still be struggling this much? How do I explain that the war inside my mind takes up so much of my time? I'm more than ashamed now.

[its_Gi_again in reply to mn15]

I'm sorry if I'm causing you any anxiety, @mn15 . It's not my intention, and I know you have a lot on your mind already

[mn15 in reply to its_Gi_again]

I can’t help you make a choice but you need to do what’s going to help you cope best. Because that’s all we need to do. Cope.
