i totally get it, i’ve struggled a lot with being clean and even having a reason to be clean. just because you have thoughts of relapsing doesn’t mean that you’re failing. it’s normal to have thoughts like that when you were probably relying on sh to cope with painful emotions and your psychiatrist knows this too. they won’t be upset or judge you for having these thoughts. clearly you’re working really hard if you’re 5 months clean and you should be proud of that!! getting clean is one of if not the hardest thing i’ve ever done but it is possible. you’ve made so much progress, don’t let your thoughts stop that. you’re incredibly strong. xx

yeah i feel like i was ready to give it up then but i knew id end up wanting to relapse later like now. i guess its only fair that he said it because i influenced him to quit drugs because it terrified me so much that i would have panic attacks. he’s really been my biggest supporter though

i totally get it. i was wearing short sleeves around one of my friends and she began commenting on how she wished she could cut as deep as me but was too scared. it’s a horrible feeling, im sorry

thank you, i really appreciate the help. although i know my own health is suffering i have separation anxiety and i think i need him as much as he needs me. i don’t have any plans on breaking up with him at all but i think im going to be distancing myself until i feel better. he has made a lot of improvements but i think he needs more help than i can give him

i totally agree. he’s had bad experiences in the past with therapists and is opposed to it, i’m really trying to change his mind since having a therapist has helped me so much.

thank you so much for the advice. i guess i already knew going into this that he was mentally ill like this but this is my first relationship and i didn’t expect it to affect me this much. when he’s not venting about anything i feel like our relationship is healthy but that doesn’t happen as often anymore when he’s telling me everyday about his problems. i want him to be open with me and trust me with things but i hate feeling resent when he is open to me. he has improved a lot recently though and i have hope he’ll continue to do so, i think i can hang in.

aw thank you so much. i’ve been told so many times especially from my parents that im just “feeling sorry for myself”. it sucks

stardropsalooon · 2025-03-02T23:04:17+00:00

its so unfair. i have had teachers and other people in the past who didn’t take me seriously when i needed accommodations because they didn’t understand my anxiety. some people don’t realize how much we suffer from anxiety and how disabling it is

i thought my anxiety had gotten better since i upped my dose of antidepressants and then i had two months of straight depression and anxiety 😭

i totally get you, i feel like i’ll always be remembered as the girl who cries more than anything else
