That's me, on the struggle bus-intrusive thoughts intrusive thoughts intrusive thoughts intrusive thoughts. In the last few days, I've had ups and downs, but today, I'm so damn anxious that I can't stand it. Most of it is my emetophobia. And thanks to the agoraphobia, I still can't leave the house, and my daughter had surgery today (a breast reduction), and, here I am, the mom of the year can't go see her and comfort her. π All I can do is clean her room and make it nice for when she comes home. I don't feel good, though, so I'm not even doing that! I haven't been sleeping well. That doesn't help.
I feel like I'm spiraling down, out of control πͺ. I take my meds, do grounding techniques, and talk with my wife, but lately, it's not working. It's like, if that shit doesn't work, what will? Do I give up?
Idk wtf to do with myself. I'm in my dark bedroom with the TV on, alone, as I've pushed people away.
I just can't stand this. I don't wanna live this way. Selfishly, I do think about a way out but, no I won't because I live for everyone else, so that they don't lose me. That's my only purpose right now - not causing hurt to the people I love by not being here anymore. It would break people. So I'm here, spiraling down. Sighhhhhh. I feel like giving up.
Does anyone have ideas as to what I do with this? Or can you relate? I'm at my wit's end. Sorry that this is long. πͺ
Thanks for reading.
