My vent

I’m so tired of my body,my body is in constant physical and mental pain to the point that I actually feel like I have no choice but to die.My body doesn’t even feel like “my” body it just feels like I was shoved into this body without warning. I have medications I take to help my depression,anxiety and ADHD but they don’t work.I feel more anxious and depressed then ever,my mind is feels like it’s melting slowly,slowly making me suffer and ache. I try to explain what I feel to people who want to help and understand me but every time I do they still don’t understand,I even tell them multiple times but once I understand that they will never get it I give up and don’t try to explain anymore,I am not going to force someone to understand. I had a talk with “someone” and they were telling a lot of things about how I’m not the only one struggling and that I’m going though a phase and that I should get over it.My feeling are not a “phase” it’s how I’ve felt for so long but barely put it out so they could see.I hated that conversation,they made me guilty about my emotions. This is ever the surface of what I wanted to say but I’m to “lazy” to write anymore

😢 I went through a mental health crisis about six months ago and participated in a partial hospitalization program (PHP). I was then diagnosed with ADHD, in addition to previously diagnosed chronic headaches, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and major depressive disorder. I totally get feeling frustrated by my body and low energy. Suicidal ideation was the reason I took part in the PHP. I now know that thoughts themselves are not dangerous - it’s how we react to the thought. For me, recognizing the thought, validating my feelings, and working with a therapist, have been very helpful. My therapist specializes in cognitive and dialectic behavioral therapy (CBT/DBT). The coping skills I’ve learned have helped tremendously. Sending positive vibes!

Hi J- I’m so sorry you’re going through this. No one should have to feel this way! There’s no one like you, and even if it may not feel like it, you are loved! At least by me ❤️ I’m grateful to know I wasn’t alone during the times I’ve felt the way you’re feeling now. I wanted to not be alive because I was exhausted and feeling hopeless that nothing would get better or change. What helped me was starting by reaching out to friends just to tell them that I was NOT doing ok. Then I told my doctor. Then I decided to go back to therapy. It turns out, my body chemistry was out of whack, so was my nutrition, and I wasn’t getting the right kind of exercise for my body. I also wasn’t sleeping well and that made all the other things worse. It took time and some trial and error, but things started getting better. I’m glad you’re here in this community and I hope you keep sharing because I think you probably have a lot of insight and experience to share. Love, Your friend Saylz

I understand the constant physical pain and being tired of your own body; lately, I feel super conscious about my body (and it’s not about body image) to the point I have an impression that I'm breathing too loud 💀 I have anxiety/ADHD meds and they seem to work plus I started my diagnosis with endometriosis, and it seems like the physical pain can be related to that. Fingers crossed for your journey!
