Therapy isn’t working obviously.

I heard that Kate Spade died yesterday and I can’t stop thinking about this struggle. I have never been suicidal but the last couple months I have had thoughts that are scary. I feel alone, in pain mentally and physically, I think about how empty I feel but full of sadness and heartache... people say ask for help but I have so much shame in what I feel because I have told people my struggle, it doesn’t seem like they care. I don’t have support. I’m looking so hard but I’m so uncomfortable around people. What more can I do.

Hi wyetmoodie

Share here whats going on with you and what your thinking. There's plenty of people here going through a struggle like yours maybe a little different but we all support one another and listen. Sometime just writing things down helps.

I've been here about 3 weeks now and share alot more. I've bottled everything up for 23 years and finding this group has helped me to open up and share. It's even helping me open up more to my therapist as well.

I don't feel as alone as I used to. I feel like my life can change. It's gonna take a lot of work and I'll have setbacks. But knowing I can share here is a big help. So please open up.

Welcome. I am glad you are here. Sharing on here with others who understand has helped me. You need to be with others who understand what you are dealing with. People can’t sympathize with us unless they have experienced the burdens we carry.

hi and soo sorry about your struggle!!🌸I also was super sad hearing about Kate Spade!!!💞It's shocking and upsetting- I have soo many questions about why that happened-didn't she have help she needed??& so on..... & not just her but about others as well!! it's not ok!!!! it's horrible!! I myself am soo emotional and feel feelings soo darn strong!!! I feel empathy soo strong that apparently it's unhealthy and harmful???? What does one do for this kind of issue I suppose there's a medicine for it but it's hard to sometimes even wrap my head around the concept of - just take a pill and your brain will stop feeling soo much -it will numb it down a bit!!! I'm thankful this exists though it is pretty cool someone researched & discovered this that could help some!!! Anyway tho so I'm still in a continuing search of other different options &ways that maybe can help my brain do its job & think the way it's supposed to it!! Or process things a little better?? I guess??? Anyway thanks for letting me rant a little! But I really do hope the best to you and for you to have some happier more hopeful days🌻☺️But you are not alone and there are some great caring people on hear so that's something- right?🌼💜
