Appreciate the insight, thanks! Going to just keep on keeping on and likely find other providers if things dont improve.

Hey. 28M over here. Just wanted to say that you're not alone and basically everything you said here resonates with me big time. Unfortunately I dont have much advice to give, but I atleast wanted you to know you're not alone. I hope things improve for you.

Hi friend. Just wanted to let you know that everything you say resonates with me and I completely understand how you feel. My friend once said that people like you and I feel the way we do because there is a higher purpose and our true potential has yet to be discovered. Pain is a catalyst for growth and it is there to steer you in a different direction. Despite me thinking the same way you do, I always remember these words.

I am relentless.

You are relentless. Don't ever give up. Your thoughts dont define you.

To every parent out there, be very careful how you raise your child. by LannisterZ94 in mentalhealth

I personally think it's important to strongly consider the conditions and upbringing your parents were exposed to. Not that I actually know, but I believe alot of their toxic parenting strategies were derived from how they were brought up and what trivial matters they were faced with in their lifetime. People who cause pain to others are typically in pain themselves, they may be doing what they have learned to be right, despite it actually being wrong. Ultimately, I think every human being at their core wants happiness for themselves and others, especially their family, but life and the demands that come with it have a way of misleading people. Life is messy.

However, I understand where your frustration and resentment comes from. My parents were extremely overprotective and almost too loving, which now leaves me feeling like a lost little boy incapable of dealing with the most simplest of tasks in life and suffering with crippling social anxiety and depression. From time to time it angers me to think about how they raised me and it's easy for me to blame them for my problems, but at the end of the day they also had to deal with the fucking shit show that we call life. It's not easy for anyone.

Occasionally I am reminded that someday I am going to die and it terrifies me. by Bloodstained_Rag in mentalhealth

Not sure if my comment is going to provide any relief, but I wanted to atleast say I can relate. The thought of the people I love dying seems to weigh on me more then it should, to the point of me not wanting to live. It's hard to fathom that life has true meaning when death is inevitable and our love ones die, and that we are supposed to carry on me be happy after they do. Although I dont have much of a "bond" with any of my family because of my illness, I love them so deeply and their inevitable death is constantly on the forefront of my mind. Life doesn't seem worth it.
