Triggered by everything

[lovehealingforme]

I just moved to a new city during this pandemic and I’ve been overly stressed out.

I have been experiencing loneliness and pure boredom. I work part time and I go to school full time. I have no friends no real hobbies and and I’m constantly trying to self help myself through meditation, self help books, etc. I have been meeting guys and having sex with them. Recently I had unprotected sex with this guy and im stressed about pregnancy or STD like serious HIV. But he told me he gets tested and that he’s also scared of STDs as well. I think it’s just me mostly all in my head in extreme boredom sadness and stress. I have been trying to help myself but I’m back To my old patterns and I’m going in circles. This is the worst feeling and I clearly need some help. I don’t talk to my family bc I’m always judged or shamed which doesn’t help. Honestly I’ve done everything in the book including self love but I’m back to circling sadness. Not sure what the answer is bc I have serious anxiety

It would probably help to have discussions with people coping with similar challenges. Type ‘anxiety’ in the search box (above right) to see links to other groups.
