Tired

[Truetomyself]

At the moment I feel really tired and exhausted from my anxiety that is now impacting my depression.
I am also tired of having to hide it. Especially with work.
I can't afford to loose my job but I can't say what's really going on.
I am scared and unsure of what to do. I have lost jobs because of my mental health being so up and down.
I have no one to talk about it to.

I am affecting everyone around me. My mum said I am making her nerves go. I miss my grandma. She was my safe person.

I don't want to go to hospital. No one knows what to do with me. I feel afraid. I can't stop crying and I feel frozen to my bed.

I am a nuisance to the world and my family.

Good morning Truetomyself,

Thank you so much for chatting to me 😊

ohhh your grandmother must have been a beautiful lady, I understand how much you must miss her…

Im sorry your mum isn’t being very understanding …..your mum s behaviour reflects the person she is it’s not you……..

You are a beautiful human being with a wonderful life ahead of you….. you can get better from what you are going through…. You really are a very strong person…. Look at how much you have gone through already…….

I understand you don’t want to go to hospital……….. do you think you could see a gp? You could talk about the way you have been feeling…….. there are people who care about you and want to see you well………

I understand the way you are feeling is scary… it’s a strong feeling….. but it’s temporary …………. I also experienced these feelings…… I was really scared aswell……. I received help from my very caring doctor and psychologists …….I’m now better thanks to the help they gave to me…. You really can get better….. Truetomyself ………

Please keep chatting to me, I’d like to be your friend and help you…… hang in there things will get better…… 😊

I have no friends so thank you for offering to be my friend. I feel so alone.

I haven't showered for a week and I am afraid. I live back with my parents. My father caused all the trauma and my PTSD is high. I am eating on and off. This week I ate nothing. I am afraid of outside.

But no one understands I get agrophobic.

My parents don't understand. I am tired of being yelled at. Make it go away. I have suffered enough.

Hi ttm,

I would gladly be your friend also m, and person to talk to.

Is there anyway you could move in somewhere by yourself - eg some kind of Centrelink benefit etc?

Im assuming you live with your parents?

Good morning Truetomyself,

Thats ok 😊 glad to be friends….

im sorry you are feeling so scared it must be hard…….. have you ever tried meditation? It’s quite calming…. You could find one on your phone that suits you…… look for a guided meditation…….. I do one for watching my thoughts……. Also remember to slow down your breathing……..

im sorry your Dad behaves the way he does remember that’s a reflection of him not you….

It must be hard being yelled at It’s not nice and it doesn’t help you…. When people yell that’s their choice it’s their emotion………. not yours…… with practice you can begin to realise this……. You can choose your emotion aswell instead of reacting to their negative emotions…….( with practice)..

please tell yourself positive things about yourself every day….. tell yourself positive things in general This will renew your mind….

read positive affirmations….. google positive affirmations…… this in turn will give you positive emotions… 😊

it’s hard when others don’t understand what you are going Through ……… just hang in there….. you are strong…. Keep going……😊

here to chat to you
