At what point do I say, "I'm done."?
General Support / by Drifterbynature
Last post

...See more I feel like the walking dead. A world scorched, still burning, with ash coming down and coa6ing my once hopeful future. A world that was once brighter, after decades of darkness and pain, now dark and getting darker. At what point is enough, enough?? This mind, this heart, this body. Weathered through trauma and chaos and loss. This mind so fractured and weary from so many battles, exhausted by trauma. This heart so battered and shattered with no way to repair it, anymore. This body struggles to breathe, to keep it's head above the waters, where there are only storms now. At what point exactly does one choose to put the final end to the story? There seems no logic or reason to continue down this road. Why? Why should I stay? Why should I keep breathing? Why should I go on? When all is lost.

Has raising a Puppy made your mental health worse? πŸΆπŸ•

...See more I would like to hear the perspectives of you good people 😊 I know this may sound like a strange question, considering how much joy Puppies can bring and I think I would absolutely adore raising a Puppy 🐢 . BUT... I just don't know if my situation is compatible with raising a Pup. I'm long term unemployed, due to struggles with my mental health. I have an apartment, live alone and have no support from friends or family. I live with C-PTSD, OCD and Depression. For which I take medication to help me sleep. I have taken care of children and animals before in my life and have wanted a dog for as long as I can remember. I'm just not sure if I will be able to manage it or if it could cause my mental health to deteriorate. So, if you'd be so kind to offer your honest perspective, based on experience, I would be very interested to hear them. Thanks for your time and responses πŸ’ͺ
