I’ve been feeling really down these last days. Just a lot of sadness and hate towards myself. I hate myself for who I am right now. Not able to stay alone, not able to go to college, not able to be good for the people around me. I binge eat on sweets then feel sluggish. I didn’t have much physical symptoms but my mind was chaos. Just wanted to share and get it off my chest.

You need to learn not to judge yourself so much and not to give yourself such a hard time, but instead appreciate the good you have. For example you commented a nice, warm and caring message on my post today. That is the sign of a good person. A kind soul. You need to recognise the good in yourself
Thank you Matt, I appreciate it. It is just so hard to examine yourself objectively and conclude that you are a good, worthy person. I always had self issues but know they really do take a toll on me... thank you once again on encouraging words.🙏
So sorry to hear you are feeling like this. I experienced horrendous anxiety and after around 18 months am almost fully recovered now.
You always have such caring wise advice for others I have noticed. I am sure you will recover.
Do you still struggle with sleep, if you are not against meds to help I can let you know what I did to over come my sleep problem within a few months but we are all different so it may not be that easy for you. I do however think that we can be too afraid of sleeping tablets such as zopiclone because they are very addictive. With very careful and limited use when I needed it, I no longer need meds at all for sleep but will use them for jet lag in a way I never would have before. It is so helpful to have a great nights sleep and not suffer the way I used to but know I will probably never need to resort to them unless on another long haul holiday.
Hello Kim and thank you for the kind words, means a lot. I’m so glad that you feel better! I’m happy for it and at the same time it gives me hope that I will feel better too!
I just try to be helpful and there for people in need as much as I can because I know how hard it is to feel lonely and like no one understands you. I don’t want anyone to be in that place, especially if I can understand and say a word or two from personal experience and knowledge.
I do still struggle with sleep, I can’t fall asleep at night, and I in fact already do take meds, I take Seroxat and Xanax in the morning and then Xanax again before bed to help me relax...I should se psychiatrist next week and then I was thinking of asking her if something could help. I took Bromazepam also and it didn’t help so she switched me to Xanax.
I haven’t heard of those pills (zopiclone) but I will surely check and see if it fits with my other medications! Thank you on advice.
