I really feel like I’m about to break (1 Viewer)

[Wingfrost]

I don’t want to get into everything but I’ve been really struggling mentally, busy and stressful things that keep piling up and overwhelming me and I’ve gone back to overeating to cope in the moment. My medicine just seems to be useless to me right now. Yesterday I was feeling a little bit better and today I was excited to do the things I had planned out for myself but now I can’t do any of that and instead do other things that people just throw at me and feels like them pretty much saying“You’re helping me with this, all the activities you planned today are out the window until I don’t need you anymore.” I’m just so stressed, I feel like I’m being suffocated, about to burst into tears at any second. The only thing keeping me going is that hopefully things will get somewhat better tomorrow even though I really don’t see that happening.

I’m sorry this is such a depressing post, I usually don’t like to talk about things like this but I have no other way to get these feelings off my chest, everyone else just tells me “Just keep taking your medicine” I’m not looking for sympathy or anything, I don’t really know why I’m making this post other than expressing my thoughts...

Hopefully I’ll feel a bit better tomorrow

I'm sorry that you're going through all of that. Please remember that you can take a couple moments to take care of yourself if you need them. Screw the people that don't let you do that. If there's anything that I can do to help you out a bit, please let me know and my dms are always open

maybe the best thing that you can do is just ... STOP .... everything, stop thinking, stop working, sit down, listen to silence or to your neighbours running around like elephants, listen to the rain, watch the snow, take a walk. practice mindfulness, start journalling, don´t really think about anything. I know meditation is not for everyone and it can be very difficult, but you don´t have to do the full 50 minutes of reaching Nirvana, just try to meditate for five minutes? try to clear your head. and yes, yes, it´s hard but you can do it! trust me.
maybe just do nothing, let your emotions overtake you and if you feel like crying just cry, get it all out. write some angsty posts, browse the Internet and just don´t do ... anything specific?
people underestimate boredom and peace way too much.

I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a hard time right now, I do hope for things to get better for you soon. It's a good thing to let our your emotions and feelings in the open just so you feel like you're not keeping it bottled up inside. You have friends here to talk to and rely on even if they dont' get better, you can always feel free to message me to get something off of your chest

Sending you lots of hugs and support! <3333

Just chiming in to say that I think @yellowcoat's post is the most useful. That's all.

I’ll be sending lots of virtual hugs your way.

Just remind yourself that you’re more important than anything else and that focusing on yourself is sometimes the best thing to do.
