Up All Night 2y

I’m struggling #COVID19 #MajorDepressiveDisorder #SuicidalThoughts #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #quarantine #Isolation #Upallnight

So I have been in quarantine for almost 5 days now with COVID-19 and I feel like I am losing it. I have been unable to go to work and have only seen two people this week my husband (who had it right before I did) and my therapist ( teletherapy session ). I have been very emotional this week and it has gotten to the point where I don’t want to be around anymore. I have no plan or method and know that I could never go through with it. The isolation is messing with my head terribly. I’m just throwing my thoughts into the void and hoping maybe someone somewhere can relate. I just want my normal back.

Even though I know I’m sane. I feel like I’m loosing it with the way COVID has almost everyone so scared that I have virtually no one to hang out with. The few friends I have are so busy that I rarely see them and rarely hear from them. I’m told that building a social network of friends is a good thing; this COVID though is making it even harder than before to build such relationships. I’m not saying that I don’t have a hand in my own problem: my OCD, Asperegers, and ADHD have made socializing difficult for me.
It is also difficult for me to enjoy myself anywhere because of the mask mandate. I have chronic #seborrheic Dermatitus which the masks will aggravate. Come to think of it even though a primary care physician told me that was what I had on my face and head; a formal diagnosis from a dermatologist would be a good idea, just to make extra sure that that is what is causing the cradle cap and white to yellow flakes that generat on my face.
I just feel really like I’m loosing mental health through the #quarantine like state that people still live in, the prison of fear, the lack of seeing people real people smile.
I feel like all my #dreams are crashing down around me. God is in control though. I may not be able to see hope through this storm ⛈ but God has a perfect plan for my life. He has a perfect plan for all of you my brothers and sisters! Don’t give up! Keep your eyes on the prize! Keep your eyes on Jesus! God bless you all!

Holiday Blues and lonliness

There have been many posts that have stated that quite a few people will not celebrate the holidays due to the holiday blues and a host of a myriad of factors. One of them is loneliness because of depression. Do me a favor, reach out to someone who may be alone or do not have a tribe of friends or the positivity to spend with family (family can be toxic)? Also, some people are social isolated, have social anxiety, have mental conditions, in quarantine, working, etc. Do me a favor, reach out and check in on folks? #Depression #SocialAnxiety #holidayblues #social isolation #quarantine

How I Protect My Mental Health Against the Isolation of Quarantine

The outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) has rocked our world and caused all of us to isolate in ways we never dreamed of doing before. For some of us who have a severe mental illness diagnosis, this isolation is more than we might have ever experienced with our most extreme symptoms. While I have to fight my [...]

Lockdown 3y

How has ableism in our society been highlighted for you this year during quarantine/lockdown?

Do you feel a "That's what I'm saying?" sentiment when people who have been involuntarily working-from-home for months now--people who have been in lockdown/socially distancing--are talking about how miserable they are to not be able to leave the house and work full-time and lead a productive life? I think we're all doing the right thing. I'm just saying it's not glamorous. Binge watching and stress eating get pretty old, pretty fast. I feel like people may be beginning to understand disability, am I being too optimistic or is our ableism showing?

Working From Home

Hey guys, Happy Friday. Let me start this out by saying that I’m so very grateful to able to work from home, that I still have a job during a time that many don’t. Also, I’m not complaining, I’m just stating a fact in what I’m about to say...

When I “clock out” for the day, I don’t know what to do with myself. Like, now what? Any ideas? #wfh #quarantine #help #Anxiety #dontknowwhattodowithmyhands

Trouble mind

I feel sick. Quarantine is making me feel ill. I feel so many feelings yet nothing at the same time. QI feel like i'm unable to express what I'm feeling to my family and my friends, I can't ask for help. Because I do not know what I am feeling and what's the problem that I am having but I feel like everyday worst.
Accidentally I cut my meds and didn't take it back and now I'm regretting but don't know where to start. I don't even know if coming back to my meds will solve my problems. I just feel like quarantine existed I also buttled up all my feelings with it and now I'm a mess. I'm also missing a lot my friends... 😔 #quarantine #MentalHealth
