Mental breakdown. Any good advice?!

[Croissantcris]

Truly feeling overwhelmed. At this moment all I do is cry and try to understand.

Welcome to a safe place Croissantcris

You cry because you can't reach the hurt you feel.

I too was at a place like you but overcame it as I worked

on the root of the problem.

Welcome to the group 💗

I’ve been having so many mental breakdowns as well lately. I am so exhausted. What’s causing you stress though?

Lately I’ve been smoking weed to deal with my emotions and my dad caught me today. When I apologized and tried to explain that it was a coping mechanism, he said “is that the best you can do?” Which is when my sister stepped in and told me to go to my room

I’m sorry I know those who smoke weed it can make them paranoid and have even more anxiety. What did your dad mean by that?

[Croissantcris in reply to FearIsALiar]

He was referring to me coping with my problems. Then before I left he said “we all have problems,” overall just a bad night 😕

[FearIsALiar in reply to Croissantcris]

I think he was just trying to let you know that you’re not alone and you’re not the only one who deals with problems. I’m sure he meant no harm by it. He cares about you

Same here! And everything feels like an emergency. I keep starting thing, can't finish them, and jump to another piece of work. Good luck.🥴
