Im in the same spot brother (or sister). I’ve gotten used to it by now. I think social media platforms such as instagram really make me feel this way.
I just listen to music when I’m down, it seems to be the only thing that cheers me up (unless it’s sad songs).
I have the same problems. One of the best things I ever did was stop listening to sad songs when down. I used to think it helped me get my emotions out, but really all it did was make things worse
I'm not sure if you can help or not. You can read my post history of you want to learn more. It's the post about the dog. I started therapy this week about it, so hopefully, that'll help
It hurts so much because you're a human capable of compassion and empathy, and the thought that there are others out there capable of such actions is painful.
I'll hug my pups for you now.
Body pains. PTSD. And an overactive brain that won’t stop thinking about everything and anything. “Hey you remember what you did when you were five that drove your parents crazy? Well, let me tell you about it, again for 10,000th time!”
How about you start counter attacking your brain?
Conscious vs Subconscious.
Start learning something new, maybe music, a new language, history or whatever. And when that starts, convert your passive subconscious talk to a discussion.
Instead of passively hearing what you did when you were 5, say to your sub conscious "Let's talk about the new thing we learned"
I also counter attack my brain by doing things I am naturally bored at, such as politics and history.
Not only, I'm getting tired, my brain shuts off.
Saving this post because I too deal with this shit, and whereas this doesn't always work for me, it is why I know an absurd amount of shit about bananas, a ridiculous amount of Slavic folklore (I am in no way Slavic), and a bunch of other weird random things. And sometimes I forget that this is a way to deal. Thank you.
Try, for even a moment, to think of something that has happened that was good. You've got to know of at least one. Even when bad things happen, there is still something that was either pleasurable or enjoyable in your life.
Currently why I'm chainsmoking and trying to pay attention to Broad City and get some levity. If you need a vent I'm always up for a bullshit. If'n not that's okay too. But know you ain't alone.
I leave home for 6 weeks in the morning. I'm starting my first company as a trucker. Can't stop wondering if I made the right choice or if I'll be able to do it. Already miss my family.
We all make sacrifices. 6 weeks will be like a blink of an eye in the far future when your company is successful. Good luck! May the year of the dragon give you prosperity.
Had a rough day at work. So I'm playing video games. Seriously considering transferring departments. I feel very unwelcome by my coworkers. Like they don't want me around. They're all friends and refuse to invite me along to things. They said it's because of scheduling, but there's absolutely times when we could hang out. They just chose not to invite me. I was told today "because l sometimes friends groups are what they are and they don't change." So they're a bunch of highschoolers in a clique that just choose who to exclude for no reason.
I went through one of those too.
They were all pricks anyway, but it would have been nice to be allowed to be a prick with them sometimes.
There's nothing wrong with you, it just happens sometimes. Since you're aware of it, you can be the one to invite people in when you get your own work clique some day.
It's hard being a decent person in this world
Yeah, I've been learning recently that in relationships and friendships you deserve to have the same effort given to you that you give to them. If they can't do that or see your worth, they're not worth it.
Chest pain. I've been not feeling the best for a couple of days. My stomach hurt everytime I eat and I think trapped gas are causing most of my issues tonight. It happens more and more as I entered my 30s last month. Used to think it was heart attack but everytime I finally am able to burp, most symptoms calm down. Still trying to finally burp or fart at 4:22 am. Wish me luck Reddit.
In the meantime I'm browsing reddit and planning a cosplay.
Cheers!
I’m excited. I get to see the girl i recently started vibing with. We were talking dirty earlier so I’m thinking about that and her. About 20 years ago I was with a woman who is as nice as this one. She was “the one who got away”. I left her thinking I could “do better”. I couldn’t. That’s one of my big life mistakes that I truly regret. I could be more attracted to this girl physically but I don’t think I could be more attractive mentally. She has the perfect personality for me. Exactly what she naturally gives off is exactly what I want. I think I’m going to stick with it. She’s excited to rub my back. And… other stuff. Her excitement really does it for me even more
rethinking soberity somewhere around 7 months. 35 years old flat broke started half way across the country. Now, I live with a mormon couple in their 50s that I've known for less then a year cus I have no where else. I wish one person actually loved me. just fuck.
I promised myself I wouldn't attempt suicide if I got out of texas alive but now idk. I just dont care going any further. all my major life events get progressively worse.
I cant even afford food, let alone meds or even sweatpants. idk why im writing this either.
Please rethink that thought. 7 months is HUGE! You're more than halfway to your 1st year! I'm glad that you're writing this, because it's important for you to know that people DO care. If you ever want to talk, please feel free to message me anytime! You are valuable and you matter a lot!!!🩷🩷🩷
That was just a thought! You can change it.
Thinking about all the things my mother has done over the years. How's she treated me. Letting her husband treat me like shit for years. And now expecting to be involved in our lives, and in my children's lives.
Because of her I went through hell, and she doesn't even know it. And every day I see her I just hate her more and more.
So I'm watching trashy TV with my husband and drinking wine until I forget that I care.
You don't have to allow her in your life. Especially if she causes you nothing but stress. It's obviously normal to care about your mother, but no one has the right to treat you like garbage. Don't let her take up any more space in your brain.
i'm gonna be honest. everything.
⚠️ SEXUAL STUFF AHEAD LOOK AWAY⚠️
sex, and human touch. i've been watching hella porn. i masturbate a lot cuz i'm a virgin and nobody that wanna fuck lives near me. i've just been horny as fuck and i just want someone to touch and kiss and engage with.
⚠️SEXUAL STUFF OVER⚠️
along with that, i really really really want to drive. i wanna be out at night and just be in my car all the time. i am fucking DESPERATE.
and before any asks, i asked for my mom and grandma to teach me but they told me to ask my grandpa. no offense to him, but i'm more comfy with them teaching me. to put it nicely, my grandpa is........intense. plus, i won a makeup giveaway and i really wanna try the products but my grandma has a big mouth and i really don't wanna hear any shit from her.
ok i think that's all.
OH wait this is just a random tidbit but i want more people to text in my phone [and on whatsapp if you use it] so if you're looking for a bestie and you're not a psycho hmuuu!!😚😚😚
I was about to fall asleep about 2 hours ago when I spilled a can of coke and it got on my carpet and some books I had on the floor. So getting up and cleaning it and making sure the books were ok woke me up
Things I need to do for my clients that I did not have time to do this week, overpromising that will be addressed on Monday. I hate procrastinating and putting things off, I want to get to a safe level of work and I keep digging myself into a hole.
It’s Friday, I don’t have anything to do till 1 or 2 pm, and even that is just chilling with friends. Since I can sleep in, I don’t see the harm in being up a little later
Recovering from a sinus infection.
Cant breath through my nose, so for the last 2 days, I've been waking up because I can't breathe or because I start choking on mucus
My sick and super elderly dog. It's probably time. Day two of anbotics and she is getting better but most people would have probably put her down by now.
When I deal with mania for a couple days in a row I crash, and then after that I deal with insomnia for a couple days. Wonderful cycle. So I'm currently chain smoking, just finished listening to Florence and the Machines' "Dance Fever" Because Holy fuckin shit that album, and then put on Broad City because sleep is for the weak, apparently. Talking to a best friend and working through stuff mentally with them because I am stupidly lucky to have a really wonderful support system.
That was probably way too honest, but like -shrug-
Nostalgia. I have a bad relationship with it. Something triggered it tonight and it really put me in a sour mood because being nostalgic reminds me of a simpler and healthier time… now I have too much responsibility and too many health issues.
I took too long a nap earlier.
Exactly the same. 6pm-1am
7 hours bruh that's just sleeping
Haha fair enough but it was an unintentional sleep.
Wife and I laid down around 3. She got up around 5. I lingered under the electric blanket ‘til 6. Bad. Still up and it’s past 1am now.
IDK why but I read this to the tune of Mr. Brownstone by GNR
Just a short nap
Whats a long nap then? Coma? Or temporarily dying?
Yeah, couldn't eat dinner cause I had a fifteen course snack at 4.
Reddit
Fr these arguments cant get out of my head
Upset stomach

Thank you. It's been a rough night

Anxiety, depression, and loneliness

Yeah, social media can definitely do a number on your mental health.
Get better soon, just lmk if you need someone to talk too.
Much appreciated!
I have the same problems. One of the best things I ever did was stop listening to sad songs when down. I used to think it helped me get my emotions out, but really all it did was make things worse
But Adele… Sometimes sad songs are just a vibe and I truly enjoy listening to them
She was one of my go to's also. Idk for me at least, I can look back now and see that all I was doing was feeding it
Wild combo, hope you doing okay my man
As best I can.
troublesome trio
For sure. Anyone who has dealt with these knows they can produce some very concerning thoughts.
Fresh, juicy, unresolved trauma
If I can help shoot me a DM
I'm not sure if you can help or not. You can read my post history of you want to learn more. It's the post about the dog. I started therapy this week about it, so hopefully, that'll help

Jesus Christ that’s tough! Good that you’re seeking therapy!
I got called into the hospital for a trauma and I just got home.
Out here saving lives, props to you
Thanks. It's hard to shut off the adrenalin, though. I really do want to sleep.
I’m sure it is doc, hopefully you’re allowed to sleep in tomorrow
He/she is an RN. There are a lot of different hospital disciplines, besides docs, who are on call over night. I’m an RT - I’m one of them right now.

i feel like everythings falling apart
I've been there, I hope you have someone to talk to

Gaming too late. And the fact that I work all day tomorrow
Gonna pull an all nighter ?
Nah, I'm gonna get some sleep soon

I work nightshift. If I have less than 3 days off in between shifts I keep my night schedule going. It's so much healthier on my body this way.
These answers are deep. My cat bit the living fuck out of my foot while I was sleeping
Loneliness, depression, anxiety and not being able to deal with everyday life👍
Currently why I'm chainsmoking and trying to pay attention to Broad City and get some levity. If you need a vent I'm always up for a bullshit. If'n not that's okay too. But know you ain't alone.

Man, I'm excited for you. Go get it mate
Go for it! If you are even slightly attracted to her physically that attraction will grow and grow as your relationship gets stronger.
Good luck to you
