I wish I could tell everybody that...
I AM GAY!
@DancingMasha YAS AND THAT IS WONDERFULLY OKAY !! :) shout it all you want
I wish I could tell everybody that forcing someone with anxiety to go to school where they are bullied is like forcing peanut butter down someone's throat who is allergic to peanuts.
@silencedskies129 you describe it very vividly. It is really hard to nearly impossible. I have figured out a special program for my son where he does not have to be with kids all day. Made such a difference!
I wish I could explain that I am not a girl. I am not a boy. I am just a human, and that's not too hard to understand, right? Because if people understand that about me I will be a lot less stressed and frustrated and angry as much. If you understand.
Actually, not even if you understand. If you just acknowledge that I am a human and respect me for who I am, I will be less scared of you.
I also want to tell you that I know who I am. It is not a phase, I'm not doing it for attention.
My identity is not a lifestyle, it's just a life. My life.
People also annoy me in the way that they care too much. Yes, I understand you mean only to help me. I love you. But you need to trust me. I know myself the best; I know how my body will react to things. I know how to take care of myself and ask for help, even though I am often in denial about how much help I need. Please respect my boundaries.
Thank you.
I fight the pain and fear of losing my dad, everyday. I don't see him making it 4 more months.
@temper3
I am so sorry to hear that. What happened to your father? @TallApple138
That I'm slowly not myself anymore looking for love because the guy I loved left me for somebody else. That I'm slowly started to see myself as not pretty anymore because the love of my life left. I wish I could have him back so badly but yet I know it isn't the time to have him back until I get myself together but I don't know where to start.
Hello @Destinee25
It's easy to start feeling bad about yourself after a breakup, but that's when we need to be the strongest and find a way to feel awesome.
You shouldn't rush into a new relationship. Learn to love yourself and remember, your relationship status doesn't effect your awesomeness.
Perhaps you should ask yourself questions, find the answers. Experience new things and focus on yourself for once.
All of the best
That just bc im different in so many ways.. Native American, Have a mental illness and LGBT. Im no different then anyone else I just want to be happy and be loved for me.
I wish I could everybody that I'm trying my best, and actually get some positive support and feedback from them instead of ignored or told that they know, but I'm still not doing good enough. I wish I could tell my old friends that I love them and they would actually care, but I'm starting to think that I was just stupid for assuming that they ever did, or that our friendship meant anything at all. I wish I could tell everyone how alone and scared I feel and not just be judged for it because other people may feel that way too but they bury it inside and seem to just want everyone else to do the same, because to have empathy for someone requires admitting to your own pain, and everyone I know is never willing to do that or make themselves vulnerable, they just get annoyed that I'm not able to bury it away too. They just want to drink and forget about everything and "have a good time" and cut off anyone who brings them down and bothers them with their emotions.
I wish I could tell everyone that I feel so ready to give up but they wouldn't care even if I did.
@lemortvivante
I think if you didn't survive this, your friends would be hurt, even if they have a hard time showing it. But you totally have a right to feel neglected. Have you tried bringing it up with them?
Don't give up. I will care. And God will care. You can always turn to Jesus with your problems. HE CARES. . @lemortvivante
and we here won't judge. You can tell us all your fears and deepest emotions
Heyb@diplomaticPerson3302
Don't be sad.
Okay that doesn't help at all, but.. you should know someone care, and perhaps someone can know help if you open up about your feelings
I'm alone a lot and need support. 8 weeks weening off Cymbalta and think I'm going mad at times. Trying the holistic approach. I'm not giving up though. I have 2 more weeks of weening off completely. Then, my understanding is my brain doesn't start creating its own serotonin for another 3 weeks, usually. So, technically, 5 more weeks. The physical withdrawal has been the worst for me.....anyway, thanks for listening!
Thanks for not giving up @soul2020977
I am not unbreakable. There's so much going on below the surface, had I gone one more year without treatment I wouldn't be here. How strangers saved my life and how deep my emotions really are. How I feel nothing sometimes but that's better than feeling sad. That I have bpd and that doesn't define me but understand that words don't even begin to cover how intense these feelings can get.
@starryNarwhal63, I relate to your post.
@Kenny954
I'm so sorry that you do. It's comforting to know you're not alone. :)
@starryNarwhal63, we are not alone and that in it self helps.
