"I Get Overwhelmed"
Anxiety Support / by Aworkman91

...See more “So just don’t get overwhelmed” is a good statement (for me) for about an hour before it all comes crashing back down on top of me and then and then no amount of “it’ll be okay” ever works until I fall asleep crying or have a break down in the bathroom. And what's bad is I can feel myself slowly going crazy and I just wonder when the day will be that I'll need a doctor to tell me that Ic an't be a person anymore. That I'll need to rely on someone for money or to take care of me. And I hate that idea because there's only one person I can realy rely on and they're suffocating from the same problems. I can't just rely on them, I need to take care of myself and I... Don't know how much more I can take.
We need a plan

...See more My husband and I have been going through some sort of mid-life crisis, or something... Neither of us are happy. Pretty sure we both have depression at least in some form and neither of us can seem to find happiness in anything we do. Recently we've come to an impass where neither of us like our jobs. Now honestly, who doesn't, right? The problem is he's ADHD and very impulsive and if something doesn't make him happy he's out. As for me... I am in a very dark place and where I don't consider myself suicidle, I just want to stop exsisting. Or start over or something... I know I'm being very selfish when I say I just want to take some time off, like a year or so, and try to make a job out of streaming or art, or both. Streaming art or games. Who cares. I just... I know that's what I want to do. But it requires me to have someone that can support me while I am jobless and not making any money trying to get my feet off the ground. But my husband can't do that alone. I know he wants to do the same thing and we did try that, but it didn't work out. He has a little bit of a commissoner base for his art but not enough that he can support even himself. We need a plan... I'm pretty sure he's quitting his job like right now without a back up job in mind. I work part time at Walmart. There's no way I make enough now for him to do what he wants to do. He knows he needs another job but I'm just so afraid he wont find one (or at least one he'll keep for long enough for us to do anything). Neither of us have a car which my plan was to get one before he quit but I just cannot make him wait. I thought I had a plan but I can't... I can't make him do anything and I don't want to force him into doing anything either... I don't know what to do I'm so lost... I realize this is a lot of rambling and I don't know if it makes any sense... any help or advice would be appreciated. I can give more info too as needed...
