It's not that I'm antisocial, or isolating myself...

I just don't want to deal with anybody for a month or so.... 🤔😅 #BiPAPSupport #bipol #BipolarDisorder #DepressiveDisorder

Struggling #ChronicDepression #DepressiveDisorder #AnxietyMedication #Therapy

I'm struggling in a big way rn. I just has a psych reevaluation and the doctor wanted to consult with my previous psychiatrist. I've just had to get off my recent meds because they were jot longer doing the job. The nurse then tell me that I should try a different type of therapy and that meds don't seem to be working for my personality type. Well, I came to find out if I have borderline personality disorder... so...? And meds are literally the only thing that kept me going for the past 4 years. Without them, my brain is scrambled and I'm not myself.

#PTSD #emotional /psychologicalabuse #retrainingyourbrain #DepressiveDisorder #depressi

I’m live under the same roof as my abusive spouse. I keep me emotional barriers firm but a strange existential force prompted me to do something I’ve never wanted to do: I revealed I was experiencing a period of manic low. I described the struggle in detail. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 36 YEARS, he listened! Intently. Respectfully. Asked inciteful messages. —-I am working on retraining my brain. The committee in my head always lies. ME! Working on me is my priority. I’be strapped on my tool belt and ready to do the brain work😁. As for the huge anomaly in my husband’s behavior? Not my concern

Always left out #Depression

So. Ever since I was a teenager I’ve always felt left out. When my group of friends split due to an argument I was always kicked out for some reason even tho I had nothing to do with it.

Fast forward thirty years.

Still hang out, virtually now, with the same guys. And somehow I’m still on the outside looking in. We are a bunch of gamers/roller players. We’ve been playing a game of Friday nights for over a year now. Recently I found out they’ve been playing on Sunday nights so our GM could actually play instead of just running a game. I thought that was cool. But of course they didn’t invite me. And to make it things worse I found out today they have another online game they are playing with two other guys too. And yet again no one thinks to ask me.

The odd part is I doubt I would play. I like to spend time with my wife and kids. BUT. It still hurts that they don’t even think to ask.

I WOKE UP NOT FEELING LIKE I WAS NOT GOING SURVIVE THIS DAY!!

I’VE NOT GOTTEN MORE THAN 3.5 HOURS OF SLEEP A NIGHT OVER THE LAST 4 DAYS AND I AM FEELING IT HEAVILY! THIS MORNING I WOKE UP SCARY DEPRESSED & NOT ABLE TO REALLY SEE THE FUTURE PAST THE MOMENT I WAS CURRENTLY IN. I FORCED MYSELF OUTSIDE FOR A WALK AND SAT ON ON A SESSION ON WELLNESS AND WAS HONESTLY TRIGGERED BY SEEING HOW MUCH PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING RIGHT NOW.... BUT ALSO,...I’M NOT ALONE!

I WAS STILL IN A VERY BAD PLACE SO I SHUT MY COMPUTER TO MEDITATE AND ENDED UP FALLING ASLEEP FOR A LITTLE OVER AN HOUR . THAT HELPED SO SO MUCH AND I WAS ABLE TO TURN SOME OF THOSE TRIGGERS INTO POSITIVES AND PUSHED OUT MORE IDEAS FOR A MENTAL HEALTH WORKSHOP SERIES. THEN I BANGED OUT SOME FUN IDEAS FOR OUR WORK COMMUNITY SERVICE DAY! NOW I HAVE SO MUCH MORE WORK TO DO THIS WEEKEND AND NEXT WEEK, BUT IT’S WORK I THRIVE ON. EVEN THOUGH I’M GOING THROUGH A LOT AND I’M DEALING WITH THINGS RN THAT I DON’T KNOW HOW TO NAVIGATE I FEEL LIKE TODAY WAS A SUCCESS. I MANAGED WAY MORE THAN I THOUGHT I WOULD GET THROUGH THIS MORNING . THIS IS A REMINDER TO MYSELF AND TO OTHERS, IF YOU’RE HAVING A BAD MOMENT IT WILL PASS!! ❤️ #DepressiveDisorder #Depression #SuicideSurvivors #MightyTogether #LGBT

Today

Today I am dark. Today I can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. Today I am exhausted from the war in my head. I am over today and it’s only 10am. I just have to get through today 😔 #DepressiveDisorder #SuicideSurvivor #CPTSD

Depression taking over

At this point I wish I could post "fighting depression" but I don't have the energy to fight it.... It's just taking over. I just want to go back to bed and let it.

How do you cope?

Hey guys,
I'm pretty new to this but I know many of us feel alone and i wanted to post this to see if anyone was also like me. I have always thrown up from being anxious, sometimes 20 times a day if it's a really bad day. People say they understand but manger times i feel like a burden. So many things are going on in the world but that hasn't stopped the anxiety from sticking around. (Clearly anxiety doesn't not want to social distance). I would like to know what are some coping techniques that you guys do to help anxiety. Or if anyone else does the same when they are anxious Feel free to reach out and remember we are not alone even when we think we are.

9 months free and fresh

I’ve been mia for 9 months, due to a breakup and break down, I thought I’d never get through it, but here I am still standing, I’ve cried, I’ve laughed, I’ve broken down but I’ve stood back up, anyone going through a dark patch just remember, tomorrow is new day, there is a light, if you can’t find that light then make your own, recently I’ve learnt life is precious so don’t waste it.
