I’m not moaning or complaining or any of that... but it’s just an observation of this anxiety thing and the other stuff that goes with it. It feels like I’ve lost my place in society!? I mean My self expectations have changed.. I always had massive goals and wanted to be successful and the best I could be.

Now it is so strange... the smallest thing is magnified into a big deal. It takes some getting used to

I understand what you are saying mattmorris. It's like we are a shadow of what we could be. Even the accomplishments and the steps forward were usually hindered by anxious thoughts and symptoms wearing us down.

You are not alone Matt. It is an obvious observation of what mental illness can do to one's life. And so we must focus on what could be down the road and not what couldn't.

Take care of yourself. :) x

Nothing stopping you from doing it Matt, only you !!. You gota beat it or it will beat you into oblivion !!

You are moaning and complaining. If you feel worthless do something about it. There s nothing you can get from others than you can do yourself. Stop focusing on yourelf and open up to the outside world. There s so much you can do.

Not what you're looking for?
