Just had that yesterday I was outside myself crying my eyes out because I just don’t want to feel like that ever again. Don’t stay here too long friend sit with the discomfort and continue living. You’re doing great and in case no one told you today thanks so much for being alive and being awesome. ❤️

@DavidSeeker It’s meant. I know how hard it is. You’re worth it. It’s not fair but it is what it is. ❤️🩹

It sucks when intrusive thoughts creep up on you suddenly! Try running cold water on your head for about 30seconds - 1min or if that’s not for you, a YouTube guided progressive muscle relaxation exercise can help with calming the nervous system. This might help bring you down from feeling highly strung from your thoughts 🙂 It’s important to note that thoughts are just that and they aren’t facts about yourself. They’re ego-dystonic! Hope you start to feel better 🤍

Oof...yeah that's never fun. Whenever I have spirals I try to remind myself to take a step back and just breathe. Hope your day gets better. 🩵

Anxiety
Hey guys, I had a thought or something I was doing that had a negative impact on me. Now I have anxiety because I cannot remember what the heck it was! I was doing so good until now. Now I have anxiety and am scared!

Today was rough…
+18 TRIGGER WARNING I’ve been trying not to post as much on here, but it’s been a rough time facing these thoughts on my own. I’ve been trying to force myself to move on and not take my thoughts so seriously but it’s hard not to sit with them. Basically, to try to cope, I’ve been watching expose videos on internet drama and those who have been “cancelled”. Sometimes, though, it can just get to be too overwhelming as I start comparing myself with the people in these videos and I just want to cry because I’m just so disgusted with myself. I’m starting to question what’s real or not, if I’ve hurt people in the past or not, and separating my thoughts from my actions. I don’t trust myself anymore. I can’t find happiness in anything. I just keep pushing my friends and family away because every little thing triggers me. Sleep is the only time that I can find peace. Because then, I know that I’m not hurting anyone—including myself.
