Managing schizoaffective and DID symptoms with no meds. and not much peer support. Lonely. Ranting a bit. Kinda cringey. Just my thoughts.

Things are pretty bad. They always are. But this month especially. Anniversary of an attempt is coming up. Just reminds me that I failed. And I wish it would have worked. February has always been my ideal suicide month. I’m tired of the psychosis. And not having my own identity. I don’t know who I am. There’s just so much confusion in my mind. My brain feels so broken. I usually say it feels like scrambled eggs. But lately it’s just felt hazy and broken. I wish I didn’t have to go through this alone. There’s just no one who can support me in the way I desire. I fantasize about having friends who act as caregivers that I could live with and get support from. Like a mental health roommate lol. It’s exhausting taking care of myself. More than anything I think I want physical contact. Someone to just lounge on the couch and watch a movie with me. Maybe get a little cuddled up like friends do at a sleepover or something. I just want to feel someone physically caring for me. I need that type of touch support. I’m all alone. And it hurts like a bitch. Everyday I just ache. I’m sure there’s people out there who if I got close with would care for me in that way. But I can’t just wait around to meet them. I can’t live with this pain that long. I just want to be held and comforted with zero judgement. I want to speak freely about my thoughts without getting hospitalized. But that will never happen. Just have to keep day dreaming about it until I die. #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #DID #Suicide #lonely #SuicidalThoughts #rant #Depression #MaladaptiveDaydreaming #Maladaptivecoping

Does anyone relate? #selfharmthoughts #Maladaptivecoping

Hi everyone. I’m in a tough spot...my marriage is falling apart and every time my husband is unkind to me, my dysfunctional coping techniques...i.e. self harm and binging, come out. He is my biggest trigger. We have a teenage daughter and I really don’t have anywhere else to go, so I stay here and try to cope like a “responsible adult.” Can anyone else relate to my situation and how do you cope? tia
