Well, I feel like I'm losing my vision. It's hard to describe, but whenever I try to read the words on a page they begin to shift away from the page like being turned on an angle.

I had a thread on here the other day about pretty much losing it while working and not knowing how much longer I'll last doing it. Trying to push through it, like I can maintain this course will push me to insanity. Just thinking about work today had me dizzy and my heart racing to escape my chest.

I'm going to have to pick up the pieces to rebuild once more and I'm afraid this time, unlike the last time. Gonna need to give my therapist a call tomorrow.
Is it a mental or physical thing as far as you losing your vision?

To be honest I don’t blame you for not fukking with her. Most people would tell you to bury the hatchet, but they don’t have to deal with that headache.
What I would suggest is to tell her how you feel about the situation, so you don’t carry around that bitterness. Once you air out your frustrations see how she reacts :yeshrug:

Didn’t read the thread but just seen it and am curious if anyone has dealt with any form of disassociation, basically lately I’ve had instances where I blink my eyes and hours are gone. There’s evidence I’ve been awake the whole time (cat is fed, I’ve eaten food, lit cigarette burning in my hand when I come around etc)

the worst was last Tuesday, I came to on Wednesday morning and realized I nothing in my head since Monday afternoon..lost a whole day of my life

having panic attacks that are fukked too, my ex has been helping me. She comes over and cooks/cleans for me and keeps me company

the other day she showed up and I was sitting on the couch staring at the floor, breathing really hard and literally dripping sweat. Took her a half hour of rubbing my back and talking to me to bring me back

there is a lot that has happened in the last few years to get to this point, currently on stress leave from work and have an online therapist but he doesn’t seem to know much about the lost time problem

I went back to my crib today. Said wassup to my roommate. Packed some of my things up.

I can’t wait for the end of the month. While I do wish things were different, it will be extremely sweet to move out.

That's crazy and reminds me of a few years almost a decade ago now. I was 15, maybe 16 and would blackout for exactly an hour and a half at a time; it would always happen outside of the house too, but I always made it home before I came back.

Never thought much of it until it happened again. I would wager it has to deal with a consistent part of me that tries to hold onto things so I remove myself and recover temporarily. There's more to this but I can't say as it's not completely necessary.

This week, my sister said I sat outside in shorts, a blanket covering my shoulders just staring. I only remember being in my bed and seeing her talk to me.

I talked to my doctor and he is referring me to an optometrist because of some vision issues I'm having and he is hoping it is only headache or migraine related.

I was in a similar space of hate and mistrust with my mother and brewed on it for a good 18 years.

Then I realized, why do I have to be the bearer of this. Hit therapy and with over 13 months came to conclude most of that saga. The effects are everlasting with the way my family had been structured due to my parent's inability and lack of foresight among other issues. You can only fix how you feel.

It sounds like something that has been with you for a while and it will be a longer time before you get rid of it unless you do.

that’s fukked up, it’s really weird not being able to understand your own head

this week has shown improvement for me, seems to help having my ex around. Familiar company, my family is mostly unavailable due to the current virus shyt

all the best to you man
