I am so frustrated and stressed

Years ago my dad took me to a dietitian and they put me on this weight loss pill called Adipex and it damaged my whole face with deep acne scars even worse when I stopped taking the pill a few years later I gained back more weight than i was before. My highest weight has been 190 pounds. My dad is really bothering me about my weight. I am on Mounjaro right now. I do want to lose all the weight permanently but my face is damaged and I have been to more than one different dermatologist. It looks like there are holes diged into my face. He wanted to put me back on the same weight loss pill that damaged my skin and I had to fight him. It is so annoying because he thinks he knows everything that is why I don’t always listen to him or my mom because I feel like they don’t always have knowledge about stuff even though my dad is well educated; my mom doesn’t have the most education and worked in retail her whole life. I am not even the prettiest girl even when I was 90 pounds; I didn’t like the way I looked. All the really good looking attractive guys always turned me down and never really payed interest me. I have been called ugly so many times.

I hate my appearance. I have been called ugly and rejected my whole life by men i thought were attractive. I never had a kiss or even a boyfriend

When I was in school even in college, there were boys being rude to me & I was bullied. All the men I liked throughout my life made comments about the way I look and they were very attractive men. I am diagnosed with Schizophrenia Bipolar. I stay home and don’t do much because I have had so many people be rude to me especially men. When I was younger my cousin put on pornography in front of me and yes I do watch porn. I used to pose as other girls online and men would be so nice to me and when I showed them a real picture of me; I get shrugged off or even blocked. I was in and out of mental hospitals, self harmed, suicidal thoughts, several different diagnoses. I do consider myself different and a child of special needs. I almost got attacked in school by men too for no reason like they wanted to beat me up. I am close to 30, a virgin and never had a good looking attractive man ask me out or give me the time of the day. It makes me feel bad about myself like I am not pretty or good enough because I have been called ugly so many times and no men that I ever liked pay interest in me. My nationality is Guyanese (West Indian). It sucks that I was made this way but hey I guess they say looks aren’t everything.

Coping with dads funeral

My dad died suddenly. I have been diagnosed with bipolar 2 head injury and anxiety and depression and have religious trauma. He was a seventh day Adventist and mum is very religious. I have been living with them since my head injury. I have really high anxiety about how I'm going to cope with the funeral. I also have social anxiety. I'm dreading the sadness, the religious themes that trigger my fear feeling like people will be watching me and seeing how I am coping and then when we have afternoon tea. There may be people I may want to see and talk to but I'm fearing the small talk and how I am functioning. I have a friend who is going to be there to support me. Any ideas on how to get through it.

I was on a walk and used both earbuds. Since I had #PTSD from trauma I only used one earbuds when listening to music fear of someone running up behind me. I let my guard down which was scary but I’m ok

Some elevation in mood today. #Bipolar2 #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder

My depression was so mild after my intense hypomania now it’s elevated again. I was so happy walking into Starbucks today and I was flirting with the man who waited on me. I had a risky thought walking around today.

Bipolar blackouts #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #Bipolar2

I just came off of a 5 day hypomania episode. I had lots of delusional thoughts about jobs. I told my group chat that I wanted to be a criminal lawyer, defense attorney, state attorney and a federal prosecutor and I was going work each job 7 days a week and take the highest pay they got from them. Everyone kept telling me that’s impossible to do that and u need a college degree. I didn’t believe them at all. I was talking to my therapist and took there side. I told him I found a lab that will make a cure for my mental illness. I flirted with my therapist and said I find saxophone very sexy and it puts me in the mood then I asked him what puts u in the mood. He said we are not talking about me we are talking about you. I don’t remember anything after that. I texted him did I cross a boundary or was I inappropriate with you and he said you did not do anything inappropriate or cross a boundary.
