I feel like I’m walking through each day and I can’t breathe. I just want to come up for air and it’s like it’s always something else to suffocate me. I feel trapped in my own body and in my mind. I feel like there’s a million people around me but no one to talk to or be there. No one I can run to or to cry to. No one who can save me from myself in that moment.

Today is a gift thats why it is called the present we have no control of the past but we can plan our future. Some days feel like an uphill battle and it seems easyer to give up then to push on through. I know personally giving up is harder then pushing through. I live with my scares everyday and the horrific memory of what i did to myself. I felt the same i was being followed by a black cloud everyday and only i was feeling the storm. But i never really tried to run away from the cloud i just felt sorry for myself. Then i decided i was going to escape the cloud i was in a constant battle with my mind for months. Then i started winning i got a job i met a girl i found myself again. It took alot of hard work being honest with myself and excepting responsibility for my own actions. I forced myself to be social and ask other people how they were and if they are all good. I noticed my anxiety paranoia and depression disappeared as long as i kept running. It still gets me it always will i think but i try my best to plan my future and what i want out of life. I dont always get it but its easyer knowing im trying my hardest for myself. Look to the future bro and look inside yourself and find what you truly want from life start simple and step it up each week and dont b affraid to fail thats how you learn your limits. You must try though no one can fix it but yourself we can help but at the end of the day we are all stuck with what we created. Be strong mate be rasilient and never give up its not to late to find peace. We live in a crazy backwards world you just have to find the right balance. Stay positive bro take care

I don't know if I feel trapped in my body but I do sometimes feel uncomfortable in my own skin. Without my daughter I feel lonely too. There are many people on this site that can talk to you. We have all been there or are there now.

Hello Ashes155,

I'm very sorry you're feeling this way. I just wanted to write to let you know you are amongst friends here and are not alone. I hope you can take some comfort in that knowledge and will continue to reach out. There's salvation in human connection. Take care and be well.

Hi ashes don’t be alone out in the cold 🍀🌞

Stress can feel so overwhelming that it feels physical. Remember although you may feel alone - you are not alone. Everyone feels alone at times but it is healthy to find someone you can talk to. Just sharing and having that connection could provide you some emotional relief.
