I want to give up #CheckInWithMe #PTSD #SuicidalIdeation
I don’t want to be here anymore.
I can’t take anymore pain.
I feel so alone.
I want to give up.

I had typed up an 8 paragraph post and it went poof. Oh well.
The only important thing from the post is what my womanly nethers is doing. My mom said "women get a period. It's normal." And I said I'm gonna call my doctor on Monday to schedule an appointment cuz I shouldn't be bleeding. Her response "what the hell are they going to do other than say it's normal? Don't go see a doctor. Just get some tampons and deal with it." Of course I'm also in menopause. I really shouldn't have a period. So something is very wrong. I accept my mom is an ignorant old codger. But I don't have to like it.

I was chatting with Pauley about how last week I got some really yummy snacks from Thrive market and I was sad because I didn't have any more. She said I'm pretty sure you got more in the box. She went to look and omg I got 2 more bags of asparagus, 2 more bags of artichoke hearts, and a big bag of asparagus and artichoke salad. I ate the salad 5 minutes ago and oh em gee I love veggies! It also had roasted red peppers! I think it's been really good mixed into hummus. Or put with squiggly pasta and a vinaigrette dressing.
If you're interested, it's also on Amazon. The brand is called Poshi. The asparagus (not the salad) is marinated with rosemary and oregano. It's delicious. But it's pickled so your mileage may vary.
I have always loved the foods that most people think are yucky. The only veggies I don't like are cauliflower and corn and that's cuz it makes me very sick. And my favorite food is seafood. I love oysters rockafellar and clams and mussels and crabs and lobstrosities. And I love it even more cuz I catch the fish and my dad used to filet them and we ate them. Fresh fish fillets are some of my favorite things.
How do you prefer your steak cooked? I prefer rare or blue. And I like dipping in either garlic butter sauce or honey mustard.
Do you like seafood? What is your favorite?
What's your favorite kind of French fries? I love Burger King fries when they are wiggly and salty.

I know it's been a while since I last posted. My health is shit. I've been getting worse as the weeks go by. Right now I have quite a lot of pain in my tummy. And my right hip feels like it's being ripped off. But I'm trying to stay optimistic.
I'm gonna call for an appointment with my PCP on Monday. Unfortunately my doctor is booked out for at least 2 months.

What exactly is a limiting belief and how does it affect our growth?
A limiting belief is a state of mind or a perception you have about yourself that restricts or stops you in some way from where you want to go or how you want to feel. Limiting beliefs can range from a simple thought that stops us from making specific steps in our life, to ideas and perspectives that influence our behavior and how we act around others.
Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks says a limiting belief she wants to change is the idea that no one could fully accept her due to her mental health diagnoses, triggers, and highly sensitive needs. She wants to flip that mindset and open herself up to believing she is worthy of all the love and acceptance in the world because she definitely deserves it!

Faced an extreme panic attack this morning... It continued for long and I wasn’t able to calm myself.. Took me long.. This is probably the scariest I have ever faced.. It wasn’t stopping and I was scared.. Even my medicines weren’t working.. It kept getting worse.. When I realised, it wasn’t stopping.. I had to do so something..self-harm.. That's what I did... Cause nothing was working... And,that's how I was able to shift my focus and after a while, I was able to calm myself.. It was scary... It’s all due to my extremely anxiety.. It's just I am having such a hard time... #Depression #MentalHealth #Anxiety #PanicAttacks #Selfharm #CheckInWithMe
