Enough already. I can't take this anymore.
For those who don't know my story, I was recently hospitalized, ive done it all. ECT, TMS, DBT, CBT. I see my therapist twice a week my psychiatrist once/week. I've had suicidal ideation for a long time. I'm on trintellix and have been trying to find the right dose to no avail. My marriage is breaking

social anxiety - always feeling inadequate
In most social situations, especially group social situations, I always feel inadequate, like I am flawed socially and there's no way I can fit in. Then I start comparing myself to others and trying to fit in and trying to come up with something to say. Then I get more anxious which makes it more difficult

This is really odd
A musician with
social
anxiety
and so. They're afraid to perform and have a performance really soon. Just like my character. And in the story the character deside to face their fear when the main character gifted them a piece of their art. So i'm wondering whether to send the story.

Tired
I'm so tired, I've had nightmares all week. About people, I'm trying to cut out, the end of the world, etc. My OCD has started seeping into my dreams and I feel like I can't get away. I just had minor surgery so i went to grab my next dose of meds. My sister was In there, playing around and I just blew

Even keel
Yup, that discomfort continues. I’m trying to accept it. To feel it… to float with it and know it won’t hurt me. The simple act of asserting myself and saying NO, has triggered this damn anxiety and the feelings of “the bottom is going to fall through “ ruminations. The good news is that I’m talking

Suicidal
I'm so depressed and my
social
anxiety
has never been this bad ever. Due to heavy smoking it has now cause severe skin sagging on my face. It literally looks like my whole face just fell off. I'm humiliated when I go outside of my apt. I'd rather die than be humiliated in such horrific ways.

Not for everyone i agree but for me a change for the better.
Apart from heart medication which is essential that I must take,I took myself off all antidepressants, melatonin etc etc several months ago which i've been prescribed for many years.In my opinion they solve nothing in the long term,they can mess your head up and make us dependant on prescribed medication

Loneliness
I have been struggling with anxiety and depression for about 9 years. And have had a rough go the past 2 years with health problems. I am looking for some sort of support group to have, because I go through some really dark depressive episodes, and can't afford to go down that spiral

Had a terrible nightmare
I am having nightmares again. Was really tired and went to bed still stressed. I'm gonna now tell the nightmare. In the nightmare mom was saying "You're guilty that your dad left.

Desire & Realization
I'll always remember my very first " Realization/ Shell Shock" was discovering that my psychiatrist and therapist were not going to be able to cure me of my severe
social
anxiety
and depression. My Second realization was neither my meds or anyone was going to save me.

Social anxiety and speaking in class
I have gotten my
social
anxiety
under control in almost every other situation (not gone but manageable) but I just started back to school and speaking in class sends my anxiety through the roof.
