Unhappy

[Cat26538]

I’m so unhappy with where I’m at in life. I want so much better for myself. I know it’s not gonna happen overnight but I’m extremely frustrated. I don’t know how much longer I can feel like this. I hate that I have mental problems. I’m so angry with myself that I can’t stop crying. I’m on the verge of just giving up. Having anxiety and depression and borderline personality disorder has ruined my life.

Yes it is. Sadly for me though I was born with it.

[Cat26538]

I fact that I’ve been dealing with this since I was born, I don’t think my life will ever get better

I’m allergic to so many medications

Hey cat I'm sorry you are having a hard time. What really helps me is to try to live in the moment. I am such a control freak and love to dwell on the past and worry about what the future holds. I can make myself physically sick worrying about things out of my control. It is all about baby steps and focusing on short term goals.not too long ago I was in such a dark and scary place in my life. I was having severe panic attacks every day all day. I was so depressed snd i was using drugs and alcohol to cope and escape. I was so unhappy. I realized I wanted better for myself and for my son. I just wanted to be happy. So I started counseling made an appintment with my doctor and psychiatrist. I started journaling again and I surrounded myself with positive people. As days went by I started to feel some hope and I was on the right tract to get my life back. So fast forward to now...im finally happy and comfortable in my own skin. I now have over a year of sobriety! I learned that its ok to not be ok. Not everyday is going to be rainbows and sunshine. I now have the tools to lead a successful and fullfiling life. Best of luck to you.
