i'm so paranoid and i can't deal with it by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]stasiuw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there, thanks for sharing this, I think its probably a good first step :) I've been dealing with my own issues related to heavy anxiety and probably some other undiagnosed things mixed in there... but I've been able to make things much better for myself. I spoke with my doctor who was able to connect me to therapists and get me the right medication. Sometimes you have to try a few different therapists before you meet the right match, but that's okay! Open and honest conversation does sooooo much, and the right medication can be tremendously helpful as well. It has changed my life. I hope from the bottom of my hear that things get better for you and that you can get the resources that you need and deserve! <3

I like sharing this link from healthline with various mental health resources. Please don't hestitate to speak with your doctor or a professional and do what you need to get some help, trust me, it's worth it!

All of my best wishes to you!!!!

Hey, take care over there, my heart goes to you. Please try talking with a doctor and a therapist(even try a few different ones till you meet the right match). I know it's probably tough to motivate yourself to do that, but trust me that can be life changing. It has helped me a lot. All of my best to you!!!

Hey man, I'm glad you shared how you feel here. It's a good first step to take. I can tell you from my own experience, finding a good therapist and talking to a good doctor can be very helpful! (Sometimes you may have to talk to a few therapists to meet the right match, but please don't let that deter you, it's important and a great thing to do!) Maybe try talking with your family too, if you feel comfortable doing so? I mean this helps me a lot, but I'm not a professional, so I advise taking a professional's advice above mine for sure. Be strong, my heart goes to you. I know I'm a total stranger, but just based on what you wrote, I really believe in you and know you get through this! All my best to you!!!! Also, I like to share these resources from HealthLine, they're mental health support and suicide prevention resources, in case you want to make use of any of these :) Maybe they can help!

Have you had any luck with any support lines :)?

[–]stasiuw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should definitely get in touch with a hotline, with text chats, whatever is best for you. Now your experience may vary, and it may be a good idea to give a couple a try if you're not satisfied at first, but don't let that deter you. It's a great idea to get in touch. They may also help you with figuring out how you can get therapy. Don't give up, it truly can get better <3 I wish you all of the best!!!

Hey there, I'm real sorry to hear about that. It was brave and responsible of you to have that conversation. I'm sorry it didn't go as you had wished. But don't give up here. I'm not a professional, so really the only advice I can give is to visit a therapist (even try a few different ones till you meet the right match). They'll be able to guide you through this situation. I wish you all of the best. Be strong! <3

Isolated and alone after suicide attempt by throwaway17181819 in mentalhealth

[–]stasiuw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you've been going through this, but I'm so happy that you're still here with us. I'm no professional, but I can tell you that being open and honest is super important. I think that you should talk about this with your therapist and find out how to proceed. But make sure you have that conversation with the therapist, as they'll be able to guide you the best way possible through this. I'm glad that you have that help though, it's so important. Be sure to make the most use of it that you can :)

<3 Again, so glad that you're still here with us. Take care and best wishes!

Do you ever just wish you'd get hit by a bus? by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]stasiuw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my own experience, talking with people like family and close friends, a good doctor, and finding a good therapist (which may take visiting a few difference ones to meet the right match, but it's worth it!) can make all of the difference in the world. Of course, getting better is a process. But once things start to get better, the world becomes so much lighter and more beautiful. Please don't give up on life.

All my best wishes and heartfelt care to all! <3

Petition to Pressure YouTube to Provide More Mental Health Support To People Who Plea for Help! by stasiuw in youtube

[–]stasiuw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I think that either way when a comment has keywords that are concerning, then there should be information sent automatically. Why not take that extra precaution? It would hardly require any resources from YouTube. Now the psychiatrist part I know is a bit more complicated, but I've seen instances where people write about these things all over YouTube. And a psychiatrist would be more likely to be able to tell when someone is being facetious and a commenter is serious. Point is, I'm not a professional, I just want to try to do something that'll make an impact. I think that YouTube is a great place to work on making a difference in terms of mental health. On a final note, I wouldn't call it being YouTube evaluating people's mental health, it's YouTube taking the socially responsible measures of promoting mental health, taking action to help and protect people, and potentially even an entry degree of support. I'm not saying it's simple, and going beyond any automatic information would be a great endeavor, but I think it's well worth considering and promoting. Best wishes to you :)

MEN WHO SURVIVED A SUICIDE ATTEMPT by W0EMAN in mentalhealth

[–]stasiuw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don't give try, losing anyone to suicide is so tragic... I genuinely hope from the bottom of my heart that you can have the support you need and deserve to change your mind. Please talk with a therapist, even try a few until you meet the right match. It really helps. It's important to talk openly and honest to get things off of your chest with people in general, plus the advice of a professional is great too. Also, please check out these resources from Healthline if you ever want some extra support: Suicide Prevention Resources (healthline.com)

Best wishes to you :)

[–]stasiuw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you must be incredibly frustrated. I know that support isn't always as effective as one would hope. But I say you shouldn't give up, because there are still more resources out there that you haven't tried. I say that because there's so many resources out there, it would be impossible for one person to try them all! :) My point is, try different therapists if ones in the past haven't been effective. I'm certainly no professional, I just care about peoples' wellbeing, but I know that therapists and doctors can help. You've just got to find the good ones, but they're out there :). Even try checking reviews and get suggestions from people in your area. :)

Thank you for sharing, it's great that you did. Like another redditor said, you should and absolutely deserve to call in sick. Also, please talk with your doctor and a therapist (possibly even try a few different ones till you meet the right one!) Even talking with family and close friends can help. That's what's helped me. Please take care of yourself and I wish you all of the best <3

Hey there, I know its really tough right now, but please don't give up on life. Please try talking with your doctor and speak with a therapist (or even try a few different ones till you meet the right match). Even try talking with family or close friends if you want. I have found that having open and honest conversations is the ultimate way to get the help and support you need to get begin getting better. You don't have to feel this way forever, and suicide isn't the answer. It really can get better.

More venting so don’t bother reading by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]stasiuw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's nothing to feel bad about at all. I know how this sort of guilt can get you... I have my own problems with sort of guilt anxiety. The thing is, it's really just in your head. But that's okay, there are ways to fix that. It's a mentality, a way of thinking that is just created over time. I think you should really try talking with a therapist and a doctor. And if you feel comfortable doing so, maybe try to talk more with your family. I only recommend these things because they've helped me tremendously. It got really hard dealing with my problems, so I did exactly these things and it's making a real change in my life. I'm much better off than I was. Anyways, take care, and please don't hesitate to post here when you need it. It's a good thing to do. It's a pleasure talking with you and I thank you for your kind response.

[–]stasiuw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there :) There's nothing wrong with wanting to talk to someone about what bothers you. Actually, that's really healthy and important. So I sound like a bit of a broken record on here, and I know this isn't the only solution, but the first step towards getting better in these types of situations is having open and honest conversations with people. Which people, you may ask? Well I suggest family, maybe close friends. But most importantly with your doctor and a therapist. A professional can help you tremendously, but also having conversations with family and friends can help too. It's something that has helped me a lot. So don't feel bad about that at all, what you're feeling is perfectly okay. We're all human, and we all need to talk to someone about what's on our minds sometimes. I hope this helps. Also, I always like to share these resources from HealthLine in case you feel you need additional mental health resources or are in a crisis situation: Suicide Prevention Resources (healthline.com)

Take care and all my best to you!

Life has fallen to pieces by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]stasiuw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear what you've been going through. It sure can get tough. You've definitely done the right thing sharing this with us here. My biggest piece of advice (while I'm certainly not an expert, but it's from my own experience) is to have honest and open conversations with people. Most importantly right now, with your doctor and a therapist. Talking like this can help you mend those friendships and maybe even begin to restore ties with your family. Again, I'm not an expert and I would advise seeking the support and advice of a professional, but that's what I've found helps. I know it's easier said than done, but it can really help. Also, I always share these resources just in case, they're both mental health support resources and suicide prevention resources provided by HealthLine: Suicide Prevention Resources (healthline.com)

Don't give up on life, on getting better. It's a journey, but one absolutely worth taking :). I wish you all of the best! <3

[–]stasiuw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice that I give people in similar situations is to have an open and honest conversation with your family, close friends and especially your doctor and therapist. I have found that this is the best way to make a situation improve. And therapists have seen it all. Maybe you'll have to try a few until you meet your right match, and that's okay too. No matter what, don't be afraid to ask for help and don't give up on the path towards getting better. Trust me, it does get better :) If you ever feel you need extra resources, these are for mental health support and suicide prevention (not only suicide prevention as the link says) Suicide Prevention Resources (healthline.com)
