I need a hug...my Christmas was awful, i have a very toxic family gathering i HAVE to go to in a few days, i miss my mother ( she passed away many many years ago but i miss her just as much), my only family ( that wants me, respects me, loves me or is even kind to me) is one person and she is very elderly and nothing is the same now. I am terrified and ashamed to go to therapy Tuesday because i emailed her and told her about my past traumas ( bc i cant speak them out loud with her), i am lonely but when friends reach out I isolate bc i cant even begin to explain where i am, emotionally, right now nor can i listen to them talk on and on about their drama ( sorry, i just cant right now). And I look out at my immediate future and it is just as damn bleak as it is for me now. i am beginning to start to feel very hopeless... sorry i rambled and vented.

*hugs tightly* 🥺 sorry to hear all that

Sunisshiningandsoareyou December 26th, 2021

Hey @blissedNblessed , you have absolutely no reason to apologize for sharing your feelings . Things sound challenging for you, it is valid to feel overwhelmed and to need a space to vent and share, or simply a place where you can be , as how you are , without feeling judged or uneasy by what might others think / say ( as opposed to how you've been feeling around your extended family ) . Talking in person can be difficult, I commend you taking the plunge to tell your loved one , the one way ,you found feasible ~ you tried being honest with her despite feeling hesitant , and this step alone is huge . I for one , am really proud of you. ❤

It is also okay to miss your mom, no matter how many years after too , your hurt , your grief, your love for her is always valid and * okay * to be there !

I am sorry to hear Christmas wasn't great for you , here's sending lots of comfy hugs and sunflowers full of hope ~ to assure you, things take time but change is possible, the future might seem bleak at this point and it is okay , you're hurting , you're healing ~ it is not a definitive time period thing , hopefully someday perhaps would be a whole lot better , because you're trying and it is all that matters . You got this, okie , one day at a time .

Warm *hugs* 🤗

I need a hug.

I have to go to the side of my family that is very toxic and mean tomorrow and i really don't want to but i have to.

im so depressed and its getting worse - each day i just try to waste time - so that i can get to the end of the day and sleep. So that I can wake up and do it all over again. and yes, i realize all i am doing is just waiting for life to be finished.

i have an appointment with my dr today and i am so so scared because i am very sick and tbh, my dr said if i get sick while my lung function is so low as it is now, i will not survive it.

i want to live my best life while i still have life to live and i just cant seem to find that light, that spark - that keeps me fighting. i do not know how to make myself and my life better - i feel so trapped in myself and i hate myself.

@blissedNblessed

Hello, I suffer with lung problems and im newly oxygen dependant (about 2 months so far). My anxiety actually takes my breath away which scares me so bad that it causes anxiety or makes it worse. So basically i have to stay grounded and calm if i want any relief. I search online for short guided meditations and practice maintaning calm. Does my description resemble whats going on with you? Ive had to learn to advacate for myself and to ask for help. When im at peace and not suffering i can find some quality in my life.

Im sending you a great big hug and a calming smile

HUGS!😊

i am so sorry that you are dealing with these health problems - i know how terrifying it is. I am not oxygen dependent during the day, just at night with my bipap machine for sleep apnea. They drs TELL me to use it during the day on exertion though. But i do not - i just struggle through and do what i can. i am so scared to use oxygen during the day and fear THAT look - the pity look, the thereby for the grace of God go I - look...it is heartbreaking. Do you struggle with this, too?

My issue is asthmatic lung damage. as of last month, my lung function for inhalation was under 50 percent and exhalation at about 29 percent of functioning :( The doctor said , during my visit last month, that as my lungs are - if i were to get any upper raspatory infection - even something common during winter, I would not survive it. i am so sacred to die.

i have my next appointment to test lung functioning, this coming Tuesday. I will retake the test to see if this steriod inhaler improved my lungs or not. if not, i have to get these biologic injections. this causes my anxiety to sky rocket - hell, it skyrockets ALL the time bc tbh, i never know when i wake up if this will be my last day or not.

i am hoping that this test will show enough improvement that either i do not have to take the shots and i can just continue the inhaler ...and the best would be lung function got up enough to not be in the danger zone of not being alive anymore...but i know it will not be that because i still struggle with breathing....it also could be heart damage :( getting heart ultrasound in 3 months.

i totally feel the anxiety that you are talking about! thats a great idea about guided meditations to reduce anxiety to help breathe better...is there a favorite one you use that works well?

@blissedNblessed

Hi, i quickly and unexpectedly went from 02 in my BiPAP to needing 02 95% of the time and im afraid of dying too! Anxiety causes breathing problems and breathing difficulty causes anxiety. I have to stay focused and grounded and wear my 02 in order to feel ok but i may have a few moments each day where i feel some sence of relief. I sleep way to much because im exhausted most of the time. It gets harder but managable if i do what im supposed to and as long as im using my o2. When it comes right down to it, each person has the same fears and confronts mortality. I use the free parts of an app called insight timer to find short 5-10 minute meditations. You can type in a subject such as ANXIETY, FEAR, OR any adjective that describes your mood in the search on the app. I noticed that just talking with anybody can bring me much relief. Keep up the thirst for knowledge😊

Blessings, Day

oh my gosh - that Is very terrifying - stuck in this place where if you have anxiety, you cant breathe and if you cant breathe , you have anxiety so you have to walk this eggshell walk of Living in a state of almost perpetual meditations to stay calm!

Yes, your right - we, all of us facing mortality - and all of us must, just some sooner than others - there is so so much fear! For me , not so much fear of dying as there is fear of leaving behind everything i know - and fear of the pain.

II have worries like - i have made no difference by being born into this world - because of my life here, the world and ppl are not better off - those fears. Are you pondering these, too? I am so sorry if asking too much or talking on and on - you are the first person i have talked to in a similar situation and it feel just so....supportive to know i am not the only one.

I will check out the app! Thanks for mentioning this!
