Just one of those days #BipolarDisorder #Anxiety

Yesterday at work was overwhelming, cried a lot during my shift. It’s tiring when my emotions become too much to bare and it sends me into a spiral. A lot of suicidal ideation going on, but I have to repeatedly tell myself that these feelings will pass, but my stupid brain follows up with “but it’ll happen again, and gain, and again…which pushes me over the edge. It’s the next day and I definitely feel guilty for existing, for feeling this way, for how I acted yesterday the fact it effects all aspects of my life. I just feel like a terrible unlikable person. I’m physically and mentally exhausted today I’m trying not to blow $$$ and stray away from suicidal thoughts. I’m considering ordering takeout because I know I won’t be able to get out of bed today.. but I’ll feel bad for ordering food. I wish someone could tell me ‘it’s okay’.

I’m picking up a second job! Finances has always been an issue with me, but now I feel like I’ve hit rock bottom. I’m 23 and had to move out when I was 19 I’ve always been in fight and flight mode since 16 when I started working to support my family the burnout is real…it does suck that I had to grow up fast (starting at 12)

Another thing I’ve been struggling with is self love, what is self love?? I feel it’s so broad I don’t get it…I struggle with the concept of love in general… I’ll be seeing a new therapist next week so I’ll bring it up with them. I read articles about it but it’s still hard to grasp.. I’ll need someone to explain it to me to my face lol

I’m also not enjoying this new medication, I wish I could go back to my previous one but I can’t cus of the allergic reaction…I need to throw them out cus I keep getting “what if…” thoughts on trying them out again.

Losing Someone to Suicide--------TRIGGER WARNING!!!

Losing someone to suicide when you're already suicidal is a lot of stress to put on your plate. Trust me. I understand. Last year, March 9, 2023, I lost the most important person to me. My Mom. I was only eleven, and I was in a facility for suicidal thoughts and attempts. I kind of already knew that she had died because the last time I saw her was October 20, 2022. I got the hint. But, I'm about to turn thirteen, and I'm out of the center. I got out on February 9, 2024. I still grieve about my mom everyday. And, yes! everybody has those days. It happens to the best of us. Suicidal thoughts are really just us gas-lighting ourselves. So, next time you feel suicidal, tell yourself, "I AM enough. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN enough. and, I WILL ALWAYS BE enough." I know I'm only twelve, but trust me on this one. I hope this was an inspiration to you all and remember, Confidence is key!!!!

🧠 Absolutely Everyone Deserves Validation 🧠

Please consider copying this onto sticky notes, or printing off enough copies to tape onto multiple surfaces of your home/office/vehicle. Our brains are one of the most highly complicated organs in the entire body. It should then deserve just as much professional or specialty treatment. Enough of the archaic beliefs that have shamed some into thinking that it can be done without help from others.
