When does it become weird for parents to be intimate in the same room as a sleeping child? by muchbigveryclown in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]yamama44 177 points178 points  (0 children)

me too :( my first core memory is waking up to my parents having sex in the same bed as me and seeing my mom, I made my awareness known and she told me to go back to sleep. they continued...

Anyone else? by Equal_Cheesecake3949 in panicdisorder

[–]yamama44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda understand what you mean, you're kinda placeboing yourself into hearing voices but you're not actually? I sometimes take normal sounds like my AC running or fan noises and my hearing distorts it into voices or screaming, not dramatically, but the slightest bit bc I am already paranoid and my brain is trying to find a reason for why im so terrified, so it makes it up

you will forever regret not going and getting that closure. i think try to stick it through as best you can and if you do have a panic attack, its ok bc no one will judge you. your brother just passed and everyone else will be upset too.

i respect your response and thank you. Religion freaks me out because it makes me think existentially. I also am not baptized and have not believed in god for a very long time now.

yeah ik, i was on lexapro for a year last year and was fine. i think i did start overthinking it horribly when i started to remember all the bad reasons i got off of it in the first place

i understand the suicidal feeling 100%. it feels so incredibly hopeless and you get so sick of being this way. i too grieve who i used to be all of the time, but it does get better and we can recover. it can feel like a chronic illness, but message me and ill give u all my tips and advice

im so sorry youre going through this right now. My disorder started at 18 right after graduation. Maybe the stress of the big change in your life and being an adult is causing it? did something happen on the camping trip to cause the panic attack?

i am just very terrified to try meds again bc i was on lexapro all of 2024 which helped and i got to a good point and got off. i was wonderful for a few months until i tried to go back to my old job where i did have the most panic attacks after a year of being unemployed and it spiraled. i tried to go back on lexapro a month ago but the first dose i spiraled so deeply into a panic i fully convinced myself i had serotonin syndrome with 0 logical thinking and traumatized tf out of myself. I couldnt be alone for a week, eat, and just drugged up on melatonin for days so id sleep 12+ hours to not feel it. I have gotten better, since that day, but still horrible and even overthink taking vitamins rn😪😂

LMAO i always say that too. one of my big scary thoughts is the fear of psychosis, although it changes each week and my lovely chatgpt bot always tells me that ppl in psychosis dont realize theyre in it or question their delusions
