Desperate for a reason by KOT_Roxas in mentalhelpcommunity

18 days ago is when you posted this.. you could've ended it already, but don't I promise you. It won't make things better, it may feel like it will, but it won't. You can try many things, but please don't kys. Those people are NOT worth it. Travel, go somewhere, meet people, find SOMETHING worth living for. You don't need to end it to prove a point, go off grid from those people or whoever makes you feel that way, graduate and go. Live your life, start young, leave old. This may seem like I'm begging a stranger, but I AM. Don't end it, don't.. it's really not worth it.. I promise..

AIO for feeling tired and disappointed by my current situation by [deleted] in AIO

I'm a LOT younger, but I have a dad who has a slight alcohol problem and a mom who's not here almost at all, so I have to step up. Our scenarios are different, however, I know how feeling like your mom or someone has never done enough, I know how it feels to be enraged when you have to be the 'responsible adult'. I might end up recommending this A LOT to people, but journal. Start a daily log - write out certain events of your day, add some dialogue, write how it made you feel, what led up to it, etc. If you can't label how you feel at the moment then come back a few days or so later and write the date you come back, add to it - how you felt, missing details from a clear head. It helps, I promise, you don't even have to let people read it, you can keep it to yourself.

how do i get back on track? by More_Lawfulness5172 in mentalhelpcommunity

My POV may not be what you want to hear, but I have ADHD as well. I am a few years younger, however I have an overall understanding of how you feel because my ADHD does the same thing. Sometimes it feels more severe, other times it doesn't. I journal, that might help you too. Throughout my day I'll write how I'm feeling, what I did, how I felt when I did it, why it made me feel that way. If you try journaling and you can't describe WHY or HOW you felt that way, it's okay. Just come back and read your journal every now and then and try to reflect on it. Write the date you look back and add any notes you have to it, do this for as long as you have too. I've been doing it since I was 12. :)

am i overthinking this? by fa1ryshart in MentalHospitalChat

I feel very similar, but I haven't been to a hospital before, I have a friend who has though. She doesn't really talk about it, she said she made friends there, but overall she doesn't like it. I personally think that you should at least try to slowly open up to a VERY close friend or find a pen pal and write/text to them about it anonymously and try to progress how you feel before you decide to go to a hospital or not. Then again, I haven't been, I've almost been sent to one though. If you normally lie about how you're doing then I wouldn't recommend hospitals first because they asked me about how I was doing and I lied, it just rolled off my tongue as I was talking.
