That I feel scared to them...
I suffer from major depressive disorder..ive had depression since i was about 13 and noones ever really known besides immediate family.This past year i went thru domestic violence with my husband and im still trying to get thru it.
That I have sever separation anxiety, even when my man just goes to work for the night or day if I'm home alone without him I will get very upset and even cry sometimes and it's hard and I can't talk about it because people won't understand. I sometimes get like this with family too I almost never see them anymore. I just depend on my man so much he helped me through some very challenging times when I was otherwise alone, I don't want to go back to being alone or feeling that way it scars me, even when it's temporary, because sometimes I lose control. I have talked to people in the chat rooms who also have anxiety but no one has ever brought up this type, does anyone here relate? This was very hard for me to write it's very personal and I feel it makes me look weak and now I'm embarrassed.

Dont be embarassed. I've had this problem too. I made myself like a non-person of sorts - no one forced me - but I was there waiting when he got home. I wondered if for him I seemed partially like a pet he could crate or something to place on the shelf until he came home. Still part of him must have wanted more from a mate. Something in him mustve seen something good in me. Maybe he thought I had potential? Or maybe he was so broken himself and that's why we fit together so well. He spent his days working and came home to me. I was without a phone and without transportation so unless I really got a wild hair to go somewhere (very, very rarely), he knew I was going to be exactly where he left me.
And what about me? I could seem to do no better. Those were the days of staying drunk and stoned and in the evenings he'd join me.
I dont wish it back. But in all these years all I've managed to do is get myself hermitted away wherever reside. It has to end. I deserve a life and he deserves a wife. I am the only one that can make that happen.
So, yes- I do know what you mean, I think. Mine was caused by unhealthy lifestyle choices, including depression, and a mindset that wouldnt let me see another way. I talked with no one. Do you have others you talk with? You mentioned family - how is that?
Not many things. I'm a pretty open person who doesn't like to have many secrets. I'm artistic, not a lot of people know that about me.
Its that I am hopelessly romantic person :)
I'm not as smart, strong or disciplined as they think. I am quite the opposite actually
I'm still struggling with food stuff. I've realized recently that even ive been ignoring it
That i've been suicidal, and have tried ending it all. That i still suffer from anxienty and depression. But i am slowly getting better.
@PaintedSky get well soon😊😊
Most people dont really know how struggle i am to maintain my saintness to work here while treating depression. Most people dont know how I need to do everything to maintain my health. Its not a joy anymore. Its a must do thing.
