Essential The Mental Health Thread

[Tunez]

um. i have suffered with mental illness since i was ten and i am too far gone for any type of treatment to help me. i am not living, i am just existing and it is tiring repeating the same thing ever day, feeling less of your old self everyday. death is the only way i will feel free of this burden

nothing happened to me at ten, i just got a lot sadder.


um. because i use to be a happy child and that is what i want again

You are an adult. Why are you trying to be a happy child? The measurement of happiness should be completely different. You need to learn how to be a happy adult. I would be sad too if I was grown trying to be in the same place mentally as I was at 9 years old.

Well as we realize we are entering the world of adulthood, we tend to suppress that happy inner child.

It is actually the crux of life. Be responsible but keep finding new ways to make that child happy.

You should be asking yourself that every day. Focus on the steps. Not the outcome. Start small. Start at home. Start with a good meal. Humility and appreciation for the small things is best.

The fact that your posting on the internet shows your doing better than 3-4-5 billion on the planet.

Changing how you think about them does.

Obstacles are there cause its called hurdling, not sprinting.

Some of y'all really need to supplement with vitamin D and or get out in the sun more.When the sunlight hits your bare skin your body starts making vitamin d, releasing serotonin and dopamine, enhancing and stabilizing the mood. Lack of regular sunlight is a major cause of depression and anxiety

I'm being very helpful.

"God helps those who help themselves." I've been where you are (mentally), I'm guiding you out of the darkness step by step.

A trick I learned from my therapist.
