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

Re: Trying makes it worse

It is so funny you linked me to this song @TAB it plauged my highschool years

My brother & his friend would put the CD on (loud) as soon as we got home from school night. It's not really my style, & after having to listen to it every single night for months, it started to really grind on me😄 so thx for those memories!!

I might send it to my bro. He will probably love it!

I can however appreciate the haircuts✌️

Hi @EternalFlower,

EVERYONE is talking about the watcher. I am a massive crime fan, so I already know the story. But I do want to watch it as well. I love American horror show, but I have never seen glee.

Hey @maddison,

Glad you could get something from my message ❤️. it has been so interesting navigating my way through the forums and what they are used for and who and how they are helping. It’s a great system.

And I have dog that I just love! I have never had a pet before him, and now I understand when they say that pet can bring so much to your life. And the old saying that a dog is a man’s best friend, really resonates with me now. I would love to have a cat to, but some members of my family are highly allergic.

I love art! I love drawing, but my favourite thing to draw is monsters. So do you draw? Or paint?

Hi @Former-Member how are u?

I'm doing OK today, it's nice weather, and I had a nice supportive drop in by friend. She is going away soon which I'm bit nervous about as I've been really lonely otherwise.

Ur name is pretty I agree.

I am now watching the OJ crime one @maddison . Coven was great!

I loved the Watcher and am now trying to see all of Ryan Murphy's stuff. I also watched Dahmer but I know there was controversy over it as they did not require to consult with victims prior to making it,

@maddison I am most drawn to the ones u mentioned, probably cult most, but I know it's quite scary. Not sure if uve heard of YellowJackets, it has a bit of a similar vibe, I scared myself a lot with that show! But still so good.

@TAB the DSP is ok but was hard to get, prior to that was very hard financially. Hard wirh job providers and just rent and not having a support person really when things go under. Sometimes I have no energy to wake up and do things and yet bills gotta be paid. Atm I'm ignoring my water bill though I know this isn't the answer!

@Appleblossom I don't know if similar but I truly love driving at night. Ur walks when u were growing up and working sound like good soul time. I feel that when I drive and listen to 90s music 🎶

I don't know that song @TAB but the haircuts are wild!

I think they sent if too many hours over a certain period then bad things happen @EternalFlower

Hey @EternalFlower

It is always difficult when your support person isn’t available. We are always here! I know it is not the same as a physical presence, but might get you through!

I love the cult season too! I still think my favourite is the haunted house, though, the very first one. Maybe it was because it was the first one I watched? You know how sometimes you look through rose coloured glasses the first time you experience something great?
