Need to talk
I started crying over feeling overwhelmed with physical and emotional pain but I had to immediately stop crying because Coco gets sooooo upset and anxious so I soothed her. Me? I left a message with therapist invited a close friend over but neither are available at least I tried. I did shopping therapy

Kind of frustrated
I've been diagnosed with ADHD for years now, but there isn't really any help where I live. I got diagnosed as an adult in her mid-20s years ago. All they suggested was pills. Pills scared me since I knew a kid had the same problem and he acted like a stoned out zombie when he took them. I've seen pills

Your story
I am curious if this has happened to anyone. I had major depression, took meds, went to therapy for some time and everyone seemed me stable enough to not take meds or therapy anymore. I was thriving! Then life threw a curveball and although it was stressful waiting for an answer to something, I kept

OCD's False Sense of Security #WellnessWednesday
I have been thinking a lot about OCD’s effect on my life. It’s something I’ve lived with as long as I can remember and has had a profound effect on all of me. From my mannerisms to the way I approach life; OCD has been an ever-present influence. As I approach the very top of my exposure hierarchy,

Spinal tap is Thursday
We met with oncology this morning and as I suspected, we didn’t really learn much more. They plan to do the spinal tap Thursday. Pending those results, they’ll make a plan. Brain radiation is off the table also pending spinal tap results. Should the cancer be in sheath/spine, they do not feel brain

Anxiety / abusive parents give you superpowers 😅
I got back from the fest and was like getting my stuff, getting water and so. Like walking around the apartment. I felt my roommate and her boyfriend are there but didn't involved. Then said hi when they got to the common room. Then he (he's a military unit) was like "oh my God, how you appeared out

Bipolar 2?
Today i got up at eight and have barely left my sewing project at the couch all day for about 14 hours. I made five fully clothed felt dolls, made myself drinks and dinner, and experienced about 0 depression or anxiety symptoms. Yesterday i hardly had the motivation to move, and for the past couple weeks

I’ve had 7+ panic attacks today
Tell me this isn’t normal. I feel wretched and want to die. I’m already on Cymbalta and seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist. What more can I possibly do? These are happening despite slow breathing and grounding exercises. How could anyone want to live through this? Nothing even triggered any of it.

Dont ever give up, the power of Hope will turn into Gold
At this time several months ago, I was ready to surrender my life and escape this horrible world we live in. I hung in there with a new therapist, new Psychiatrist, new diagnosis, new medication, and finally a new job in my field, Now I have a new found hope that life will be ok. I am not a religious

Anyone feel this way?
I have a lot going on that triggered my most recent depressive spiral. In my mind, it’s a lot. But the big picture is I have a roof over my head, a healthy family and a good therapist. Here’s the deal though: I find myself wanting (hoping? Wishing?) for something big to happen. A death of a loved one

I'm scared of People being mad at me. Feels like walking on eggshels. Similar experience? Tips?
At least good my therapist noticed it and said it's common for anxiety. I was so scared of getting my parents not to be angry that now i stay with "tail between my legs and ears down", scared of someone being mad at me. I'm always scared of someone i live with. I always apologize. I feel so guilty. I

Apologizing for being so negative
I'm sorry that it seems like I'm such a negative person. I'm just majorly stuck now days and its only gotten worse over the last 3 months. It's very frustrating I'm trying everything everyone suggested and its not working. I'm trying so hard to retrain my brain again like I did in the past when I was

Negativity Feeds Negativity.......
In what seems like many years ago, I would ramble to myself and others about all of my bad feelings. Every "symptom", every "label" I could place on myself, every fear of the future..... Friends left because they were tired of hearing it. To them, I was "Toxic". To myself, my thoughts were very self-destructive

Tough day
Husbands job just turned its back on him after 21 years. Losing our rental soon. Searching for a house to buy in the market with what income we have. Dealing with it all has me so down. I push my family away and feel numb. Think about how it could end all the time. Therapist told me to only worry about

Wondering.....🤔
So it seems like medications don't seem to be helping a lot of people on this site..??? I read numerous posts from people whose problems just go on and on, every day it seems, with no improvement?? Something is wrong here. The famous quote: "The definition of insanity~doing something the same way every

I really am struggling
I don’t know how much more of this I can take I haven’t felt like myself for weeks/months after having that panic attack while trying to get a stress test and the wave of constant panic attacks during that week after. I do try and get out I’m doing okay with it but I noticed I’m getting dizzy or lightheaded

Marriage
Has anyone had marriage trouble going thru all of this? I am afraid that my husband is waiting until I get a transplant and am better before he leaves me. He said he would never leave me and will always love me but since all this has happened, I feel like we are just roommates. He even started sleeping

We need to talk with each other
Hello everyone, I have been on this site for years. I must say it helps a little. But im the type of person that wants a conversation about my problems. Reading and texting doesn't do it for me. I need conversation, someone that can " FEEL" where im coming from. Sometimes I ask my girlfriend to act as
