Is it so hard to understand someone who's mentally sick?
My roommate scolded me again for cleaning. How the hell to tell her i'm not doing it because i want to harm or because i'm lazy but because i have a lot in my sick brain and i didn't notice the bin? If i try, she says everyone has sth, she has it worse and etc. Same was at home. Now mom stopped and i'm

Adjust Crown, Mood Roller Coaster Begin
I meet with my nephrologist this week. Always nerve wrecking. The highs and lows of all of this are definitely a roller coaster and I know I still haven't fully gotten on. I'm waiting on the day when my nephrologist says I have to start dialysis. My fistula seems to be doing well, vibrating away. Why

Should I tell my 12 yr old he has ADD? If yes, how?
My highly sensitive and intelligent 12 yr has ADD since 3rd grade. We have not told him yet since my husband believed that it would make things harder. He was able to mask this in elementary school. Now that he is in middle school, he struggles socially and has lost his spark and is beginning to lose

Newbie justs need to talk-sorry for long post
New here-just found this site in hopes it can help me with my crippling depression and passive thoughts of suicide.

My life has become a nightmare
It's been so long since the last time I posted here. I've been feeling very vulnerable but I'm being trying to hold everything in my heart. I've been going to therapy during the last 2 months. My boyfriend, the one I've loved since 5 years ago, the man I've done everything to be with, he does not love

Little boy with a serious heart condition needs help. Please read..
Thanks for taking a second to look at this for me. I'm currently 7 years old and have a serious heart condition, called a double inlet left ventricle. It means my heart doesn't have enough pumps and Chambers to function how it should. My condition is life threatening and life limiting, and will result

Desire & Realization
Hello Everyone,. I always use my own experience in the hope that someone out there can use something from it to help in their own personal struggle.

How long do you give a new therapist?
How long should you give a new therapist before you decide they're not the right fit? My introductory call was ok, although she already started pushing for medication without knowing me (and she's not a doctor who could prescribe it anyway). Then we had our first real session today and she seemed annoyed

Transport A Scooter
Good morning everyone. We are considering purchasing a new vehicle, probably an SUV. I need help figuring out what type of carrier/ramp/lift would be best to transport the scooter. My niece is an occupational therapist who has warnings against buying a newer vehicle because she said the frames are lighter

I, too, am still struggling
I have lived in my own apartment for 7 months now. I have no family and no friends. I am very lonely most of the time. I recently adopted a cat, and that has helped, a little. But otherwise I have a 50 minute conversation with my therapist once a week. This is not my hometown and it never felt like home

Cisgender Spouse
I’m new here. Struggling to come to terms with a failing marriage, gender fluid husband. Experiencing unrelenting pain and internalized suffering. Can’t find a therapist that has the LGBTQ experience needed to help me work through it.

I hate it here
I am really frustrated. I want to participate in a treatment program and while I was in the hospital I was recommended to do a partial hospitalization program because they are SO good. I thought this was a great idea and I immediately called to ask for help but it's super expensive and I can't afford

Coping skills advice
Hi. I just joined this group today. My therapist thinks it will be good for me because I’m struggling with some extreme anxiety mood swings. I had to stop going to my pain management dr because I would get so nervous and upset by the things she would say that I scratched my skin off in multiple places

Auto-immune hypothyroidism or not?
Good morning all, How can I find out what kind of hypothyroidism I have, please? There is hypothyroidism in my family, but I was told by an alternative therapist many years ago that I have an autoimmune type condition and would like to know via blood test, if that is possible? Apologies if this has been

PEMF mat therapy update
So I finished my pemf mat therapy and here is what I experienced. While on the mat my tremors would stop on average 10 minutes into a session. The sessions would last 30 minutes to 1 hour. I started at the lowest setting and worked my way up. I used the unit daily. I also noticed that my tremors would

Maintain crisises? I'm in a crisis. I haven't passed my previous crisis and now a new one. Trying to self soothe. Inner child work.
It's really heavy on me. My dad, mom, sis, half-sibling, Grandma, roommates, my previous anxiety, unable to cope with university and my project, being let down by people i got vulnerable with, not finding good therapy, the stuff that happened in my previous post. I was texting with sis and i got so anxious
