I’ve been struggling over the past week. I just want to be normal again.

How do you guys deal with stress and anxiety? I try to walk daily, journal, and do my breath work. Still, I get anxious and stressed. How do you deal with this?

I hate Sunday nights. The scaries are real. What do you do to get through it?

I’m curious, I’ve been taking low dose lamotrigine now for around 6 months. At first I felt a shift, I felt more centred and each day I get a sense that I think differently, I am making better choices, my thought patterns feel more coherent, can anyone relate.

I feel like I’m only mildly on the spectrum of bipolar 2, hence the late diagnosis at the age of 57.

My psychiatrist is assessing the diagnosis and is no longer certain, now considering maybe an anxiety disorder. think bipolar2/anxiety disorder are both pheasable.

I feel I have been anxious all my life and masking depression, I think the manic behaviour has been a result of trying to escape or fix my anxiety.

Now I am taking lamotrigine I feel like the mask has come off, I am no longer manic (or as manic) but I also can’t escape the depression I have been masking.

Can anyone relate? I told my daughter they are reconsidering the diagnosis and I could see she was anxious about this.

I explained I am doing much better and she agrees but only since I have been medicated.

Can anyone relate?

So I don't want things to be too politics but I have no idea where to vent. So I guess here we go. So my family is divorced. My mother has been dating this guy for about a decade now. It was a rocky relationship. Wasn't compatible. Where does politics come into play. While not too long ago. They got into a massive fight. Two conflicting were head to head until it ended a decade long relationship, now I know it wasn't meant to be but I just feel bad for me mom as she is lonely and this had to happen. My empathy is going off the roof, I'm sorry if I don't have much to say.

Trigger warning: Hopelessness.

I guess I’m a glutton for punishment to try to reach out again, as I know no one will respond, but… is this the way things will be forever? Feeling depressed, anxious, stressed? Stuck? Is this the best it gets? I have a lot to be grateful for, and I am. Sometimes, though, I just feel hopeless.

Hi

My name is Stephanie and believe it or not it was chatgpt that suggested I join The Mighty. I have never even heard of The Mighty and dont really know how to do this. But here I am. So ever since 2019 my life has been in a bit of a downward spiral. First, my dad passed away and then 10 months later my mom. I have only one brother but he lives so far away, it might as well be in another country. I don't have any other family like cousins (both my parents were only children) and all my grandparents have passes away. I have a senior dog and she is my whole life. So long story short, I have a very stressful job and anxiety is my number one friend. I'm just here to meet people going through the same thing as me trying to navigate this thing we call life. #MentalHealth #Anxiety #Stress
