New and Lost

[StillGoing96]

Hey everyone! I am new to this whole group support culture. I joined for a variety of reasons but the main one being anxiety. Recently it’s gotten worse because of finances and stress from my relationship. I find it hard to talk about the things going on in my head with family and close friends. Mainly because I feel like my family would brush it off and that my friends would just say the usual “I know what you mean.” I’m not sure if I’m in the right place. Meaning posting this here. If I’m not please let me know.

Have a wonderful and beautiful week,

- G

As Luna said, U have definitely come to the right place. Finances definitely can be stressful and for those of us, who already Have anxiety depression issues, this becomes magnified. This group is supportive and can relate to your anxiety issues. I’m here 4 U.

Hugs 🤗 M

Welcome to the Community! You have come to the right place. We are all here for the same reason, some of us are further along in our 'recovery'. and we come to support others with similar problems.

Sit down, grab a coffee, and talk to us!

Cheers, Midori

Thank you for your post. You are in the right place. It's hard to know what to say sometimes when you think people aren't really listening. We are here to listen. I am sorry you are struggling with anxiety. If you feel the struggle is overwhelming, it might be good to talk to a counselor who will listen to you and give you feedback on what you are requesting. My counselor has helped me so much throughout difficult times. Hang in there!

Sorry it’s been so long! I’ve been busy with work and being sick. After coming to the realization that I was unhappy in the relationship, I ended it a few days ago. It’s going to be rough because our lease isn’t up for another two months and I feel guilty and like a pos for the pain I’ve caused. I know you need to do what’s best for you but the impact it has is horrible.

Thank you so much for the support. I feel like it’s going to be my fault if she has housing issues. She decided to quit one of her jobs (the one that paid more) a few months the ago. I don’t want her living in her car but I can’t be financially responsible for someone else who is able to work. It just tears me up inside.

Thank you so much. I really needed to hear that. She has family in the area who I’m sure would let her stay until she gets her own place. I guess the only thing i can do is focus on what I’m going to do to better myself.
