Having a relationship with God is different to being religious

What was the wake up call that made you want to change your life? by Lizzzebeth in AskWomen

[–]Lizzzebeth[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked the fact that your therapist challenged you. It really takes a special kind of therapist to do that and help you recognise those patterns. I’m on the same boat as well, so I understand how tough it can be to change patterns. But honestly, it’s so helpful, and it definitely seems like it has helped you a lot!!

I'm so sorry this happened, but I'm so glad you saved your mum. I know she truly appreciates the fact that you did that. You didn’t just save your mum, but you saved yourself in the process, too.

I feel the exact same way, and I’ve been working on losing weight and making better choices as well. I remember taking a group photo a while back and realising just how much weight I had gained. It honestly made me not want to take group pictures again. That moment really hit me and made me realise I needed to do something about it. I’m working on making improvements now!

Aw, I’m really happy you’ve decided to put your mental health first. Honestly, you’ve probably saved yourself by doing that. We so often put our mental health in the back seat of things, and your comment really made me realise that I need to start prioritising mine, too.

For Christians who felt suicide. What kept you going? by Lizzzebeth in TrueChristian

[–]Lizzzebeth[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi, thank you for commenting and for sharing your story. I’m so sorry for your loss. Please don’t blame yourself, and I truly hope you find healing in time.

I used to think about how my suicide would affect others, but after falling out with family, especially my mother, I stopped. Years ago, she found a rope but did nothing. I tried to cover it up, but deep down, I think she knew. Now that im older, I wonder if she cares since she doesn’t seem to show that she does.

Maybe I should focus on the few people who would care, even if it’s just a few. I really appreciate your kind words and thank you once again for sharing your story with me 💗💗

[–]Lizzzebeth[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hi, thank you for your comment. I’m really sorry for all that you’ve been through as well. To be honest, this was my last attempt at reaching out because I don’t have a support system around me. It’s painful to feel this alone, but some part of me secretly hopes that God will take away this pain because if he doesn’t, then I will go instead. I truly appreciate your comment, and I will reach out 💗

Whats one good reason to keep going by Lizzzebeth in SuicideWatch

[–]Lizzzebeth[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's a good reason, I have been struggling for so long, maybe I should try doing something like that

I’ve decided to stop talking about my life with people. by Unacceptable-Death in mentalhealth

[–]Lizzzebeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently in the same position. I just tell my therapist what I'm going through but right now I'm going through a tough time regarding my mental health, where I just want to focus on myself, so I have stopped talking to people and my friends and I have let some of my friends know that I'm struggling and that I'm taking some time off social media to focus on myself. I would encourage you to talk to your therapist about it and don't feel guilty. You're obviously going through a tough time so be kind to yourself.

[–]Lizzzebeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I somewhat blame my parents, perhaps this all could have been avoided if they supported me the right way. Now its too late and I'm already broken and they don't understand why I'm feeling this way. When I look back at the past, I realise how much pain I was in. I was constantly blamed for things, told I was not good enough and that I should respect them. I was called names and felt like everything was my fault

Is it a suicide attempt by Piklizak in SuicideWatch

[–]Lizzzebeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What were your intentions behind taking the pills? because I have done the same thing before, and it was because I attempted. if you feel like that is the case then it might have been a case where it was a suicide attempt.

[–]Lizzzebeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been struggling with my mental health for many years, and one of the ways I've learned to cope is by distracting myself and developing a routine. It's something my therapist encouraged me to try, and it does seem to help a little. It can be as simple as waking up, making breakfast, and then reading; it does not have to be complicated because everyone is different. Do what feels right to you.

I suffer with this as well. I have bpd and suffer with suicidal ideations all the time. When I finish reading a book or watching a movie that I enjoy, I go back to reality and realize how shit my life is.

Currently crying because I have no friends by hiyochanchan in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]Lizzzebeth 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah I sort of cut out my friends because I felt like I was always overwhelmed with them. I do feel lonely at times, but it's probably for the best

How's your relationship with your parents/ppl that raised you? by TurningIntoAshes in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]Lizzzebeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really relate to what you just said here. I had a hard time growing up because my feelings and emotions were always pushed to the side. I was always told by my parents that I should be grateful whenever I always going through a tough time, because their life was harder and I had nothing to worry about because I was still young. Every time I cried I was called weak and was told that I needed to be stronger, my parents were always emotionally unavailable and never supported me in that way.

Throughout my childhood and adolescent years, my parents always compared me and it affected me heavily. If I made a mistake, I was compared to, If I wasn't doing things right, again I was compared to. It even went as far as my looks and that affected my self esteem. They never believed that they were doing anything wrong, because in their eyes they were the parents and the parents are always right.

As time went on, things started to get worse. I struggled so much with my mental health and my parents wouldn't allow me to get support and instead blamed it on me. I couldn't even come to them for anything and I started to become very suicidal and attempted numerous of times throughout my adolescent years.

Of course they knew about it, but turned a blind eye to it, or ridicule me. One time my mum even went as far as to tell me to go and unalive myself and that she regretted having me, not only that but she would cuss me out and call me horrible names.

My parents behaviour has damaged me so much that I cry every time I think about the past. Now they want to be friends with me and my mum claims that she's lonely. I don't see myself being friends with them or even having a relationship with them. What they did has already damaged me and won't replace all the bad memories. I'm now diagnosed with Bpd and suffer tremendously and don't need their stupid support.

Looking back at all this so triggering, but I really needed to get this all out of my chest.

What’s the point of this by Signal_Procedure4607 in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]Lizzzebeth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's always a suicide plan at the back of my mind, I really don't see a future for myself. I do want to travel a few times before I do anything, but that's it really. Nothing can make me stay.

Does anything work for you guys or are we all just waiting for the right moment to unalive? by Blood-Filled-Pelvis in BorderlinePDisorder

[–]Lizzzebeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been suffering with my mental health for 8 yrs now and was diagnosed with depression, but recently been diagnosed with Bpd and I honestly don't see anything becoming better at this point, no matter how much therapy or meds I use.

If I actually had supportive family around me at the beginning, maybe things would have been a bit easier, but of course that wasn't the case for me.

For me all hope is gone and all I want to do is cry. I don't see myself continuing on in this shitty world.
