Trying makes it worse

Trying makes it worse

Hi,

I'm EternalFlower and I've been feeling completely overwhelmed, sad, and pessimistic.

I've tried and been a responsible patient and person, reaching out to various services when I started feeling scarily anxious and suicidal, 2 years back..

My Dr is new, a young guy who regularly admits he's inexperienced, and aside from some good jokes, he actually does very little

I notice how easy it is to blame myself that I don't feel better, a total shame spiral, but I wander if my treatments just are bad....

I wanted to chat and hear anyone and hope I can use this space to help not feel so alone.

Thanks xxx EternalFlower

Hey @EternalFlower

Welcome to Greystone Rock! Tis an imaginary wild west town on an island. You will find the history of the town over on

Introduction from the 3rd April 2023. I believe it existed elsewhere prior to that but you would have to ask @tonys .

So anyway I have a diner in town and every day I post a daily dish. This is the sort of place where everyone eats the same meal that day. All sorts of wild and crazy wild west type meals. Enjoy!

Re: Trying makes it worse

Hey there @Sophia1 @Oaktree @EternalFlower @Appleblossom @FloatingFeather How are you

all.

A lot happens in this forum in a day. Most times I am playing with the rabbit, tormenting the cat,

poking at a log in the fire. and responding to friends on all these threads all at the same time.

No wonder I lose track of things. May I say Welcome back @Sophia1 I hope some form of peace has come knocking at your door, and stays for a while.. You are right that one does not need to travel a thousand miles to find answers. They are there inside us. We either find them , and accept

them. . . or we don't. Depends if we are receptive to truths, are ready, capable. Etc etc..

Remember the "simple Mans prayer" That you liked so much Sophia. I always default back to that

little poem..

I know nothing of M H . I only know for the most part, I'm very happy. But then I dont expect

anything much from life. I do weave my way around stress in search of peace. Thats not running.

Thats just common-sense. Every other mile I travel is about this little tune https://youtu.be/CnQ8N1KacJc which I play way too often... I hope in some way that answers your question too @FloatingFeather. And Sophia, I pray the arms of peace embrace you and hold you so tight, all you can do is catch your breath and make peace with that waters edge

inside you.

If I had one wish regards Sane it would me to repaint this thread to, . . . trying makes it. . . Better.

Sorry to post you all in one go but I got smashed in a tomato fight with the shed girls

Warmest thoughts to you all. tonys moonbase 1
