Tough time

[Jaybean101]

Right now it’s like every sad feeling is hitting me. I don’t even know how to feel or know how to describe how I feel. I just don’t know what to do right now.

I have times exactly like this!

[Jaybean101 in reply to MaziS]

I just wanna be alone and cry right now honestly. But I’m in a place where I can’t.

[MaziS]

Slow deep breaths

I just wish someone understood. Or I had someone who could stand by me through the day.

Plus I keep having random moments where my mind is empty and my body numbs. Why?

[MaziS in reply to Jaybean101]

I didn’t think I had anxiety for a very long time when in fact I did. I thought it only came in the form of anxiety attacks but come to find out it effects us in so many different ways.

Thanks MaziS. I’m glad I joined this today. A way to talk about how I feel anonymously like this is good.

[MaziS in reply to Jaybean101]

It’s great! I was on talkspace for a long time in a group forum but talkspace has decided to end the group option this month so I came here. I’m glad I signed up as well! You can always talk to me!

Has something happened to trigger your sadness? My sad or angry feelings are usually triggered by negative thoughts or events. Sending you a hug 🤗

[Jaybean101 in reply to RAYOFHOPE88]

Nothing triggered it that I know of? Not how this is but other-times my sadness comes in forms of daydream that replay bad memories from my life. It’s really odd. Thanks for the hug!

Oh. Your bad experiences continue to cause you pain. I try so hard not to get lost in memories. Letting go of the past can be hard but it's not possible. Try letting the pain that these memories bring become a reason to let them go. I'll never forget my past but I don't let thoughts cook in my brain that might make me anxious. I have panic attacks so I'm very cautious about the things that I keep on my mind. You're welcome ☺
