I don't know how to begin this entry. I'm tired of my entries being depressing as I can only imagine how much it sucks to read my whining all of the time
( Read more... )
When I am depressed, I generally grab squishy things and squeeze them a lot, as well as cry. I find that letting the emotions do what they do as apposed to fighting them makes them go away faster. Leaving the house, even though I don't want to also helps. ...In the rather mid way away past I have gone to therapy, but, I feel that it is a last resort...which it sounds like you need.
I wish that I could think of something to say to you. Some wise sort of advice that could help things. But at the moment, I can't. I'm not good with stress or depression either, as we have talked about before.
I wish I lived closer to you. I may not be smart but I give really good hugs and my shoulder is really comfy to cry on.
Know that I love you Sets and if there is anything within my power to do I will. If I can think of healthy ways to get through stress I will for sure tell you. Please try to get something in your system, you're small enough as it is I don't want you wasting away.
i know i am the last person in the world to give advice about stress... but i think what has worked for me lately is not worrying about things i cant change, and then working really hard on what i can change.
i cant help the fact that school starts in a week- so there is no point to thinking about it, but i can make sure my handouts are ready and that my clothes are ironed.
i hope that helps! let me know if you need anything else!
You are doing a good thing in reaching out. You have a wonderful support system. We're all here for you.
Advice for coping - it took me forever to get this right for me. I am a perfectionist and I live with anxiety disorder. One spell I had was so bad that I cried so much I got salt burns on my face. But, I lived through it. I attempted to get away, join a cult, and find a new me. Then I realized I'm stuck with me <3 I started knitting which helped to lessen the tears. I was so focused on finishing rows and seeing the stitches that I had to stop crying. Recently I took up roller skating which puts in kinda a trance when I'm at the rink and keeps me focused on not falling down. Travel is still a big outlet. Now I have a car I drive to the ocean whenever I am not feeling right. Dipping my feet in the water seems to help with reflection. The panic attacks have not stopped, but they are becoming fewer each month. It was more important for me to find a balance than a final solution

Hey, long time no talk I know but I thought I'd drop in this and give you a giant hug. I have no advice to offer you that hasn't already been offered. The only comforting words I can think of are all cliches and those just piss me off when I'm feeling bad. So I'll give you another hug and think good thoughts for you.
