Feeling worthless today
Hello everyone, I just joined today in hopes that I can find comfort in community. I've been depressed for most of my life. My depression stems from body image issues and the disordered eating eating patterns/thoughts that follow it. I knew it was getting bad when I had daily suicidal thoughts.

It feels like too much…the way things seem…
I find myself very overwhelmed with my responsibilities, and with my racing anxious and negative thoughts and fears about the future. I feel tired all the time. I push to exercise and meditate each day and barely eat and have been sleeping more. I thought I was depressed. My therapist says sounds

A Social Anxiety Success
I have social anxiety and I’m about 4 1/2 months sober. It’s hard, but I go to two in person 12 Step meetings and I do more on line. Anyhow, I’m terrified of speaking, and at the beginning of the meeting, they call on certain people to read passages to the group. Today the secretary handed me “How

Just when I thought things had settled down & we had his ADHD well managed....
Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like just when you think things are finally going well the sh!t hits the fan? My husband and I just had a conversation last month about how things with my son had finally settled down and we had his ADHD well managed. It had been 2 long years getting him diagnosed

hard time overcoming morning anxiety today
yesterday I spent the evening at my boyfriends house and it was great. I was anxious about going, but everything ended up being fine! This morning however I woke up anxious. This has been the norm for me recently. I’m having a bit of a harder time today compared to most days pulling myself out of it.

Late submission for Off Topic Friday: 'Fish'
My art therapist challenged me to produce something on the theme of 'fish'. Having no imagination for pictures (I think in words), I produced the attached piece. Once I had done, she did not ask me what kind of fish it was (it is my take on a parrot fish about to eat a bushy alga), but rather, seeing

How can I stop digging?
I have been dealing with anxiety on and off since 2020. I tend to produce more stomach acid when my anxiety gets bad to the point I have developed acid reflux and some peptic ulcers back in 2021. I tend to latch on to an unresolved issue and catastrophize the situation. That starts the spiral and

Coaching or CBT?
I'm on meds and do
psychotherapy
but I need help to work more consistently on a specific research project that I don't have much time to complete. My medication helps a bit for some tasks, but overall I'm still unproductive and have little sense of the passage of time.

What does ADHD support look like?
My daughter is 14 and was diagnosed years ago with ADHD. She has a 504 plan and is using it at school. I am thinking about trying medication again. We tried unsuccessfully in her younger years. So she has 504 plan I will investigate medication with her primary care doctor. I am looking for a therapist

trying to push through!
I have been struggling with my anxiety recently. It is higher than usual and I’m having a difficult time pulling myself out of it. I talked to my therapist and she did tell me that there are outpatient day programs I could attend, but that would require me to take a leave of absence from work and pause
