Coming to terms with reality

Coming to terms with reality

Hi Readers, i am suffering from "mental health issues" and it is an ongoing, daily battle. I am pretty much constantly wrestling with the thoughts going on in my mind. And my psychical life seems too be suffering for it. (There is a huge difference between physical and mental ) something is definitely not right! So each day I'm waking up and going about my routine. And over the last few days, weeks and months. I have been noticing changes in my mentality toward myself, others and life. And some questions such as, what is my life about? And what should my objectives be? Have arisen... of course like we all are, I'm subject too making decisions... and there has been the same options in front of me time and time again for months on end. And it becomes rather draining and mundane. And i feel myself going around in circles like something simple just ain't connecting.

I enjoy writing, art, music. And peace of mind... walking, reading, meditation. Taking care of myself. Socialising. Etcetera. Getting ahead, getting in front. Planning, dreaming and so on. And do my best to look after myself. While accepting that it can only ever be so much.

But there just something not quite right. And I'm suffering for it on a daily basis. And I'm tired and fed up with going through the same stuff everyday. And in all honesty. Alot of my suffering comes from prospective and thought processes.

Does anyone wanna talk with me about some things that might help? In particular dealing with people no matter who they are. Can be very stressful and cause lots of procrastinating about pros and cons. In particularly people who i think about reaching out to for support. Because of dilemmas dramas and social dynamics. And picking up on things that "aint really happening" "gut feelings type of stuff " "intuition" that type of thing. And enjoying time with people is great! I just tend to be overly preoccupied with symptoms to be worried about socialising sometimes "Symptoms which involves others"

@Bunniekins i got out and about, thanks to the help of a mentor and friend, I've truly worn myself out; am going to have some rest time now. It's a dodge tide here today, I'm thinking it may have something to do with how I'm feeling. Also feeling fatigued and aching all over.

Re: Sharing the wisdom within

@Zoe7 Christ knows what's going on with my body and mind. I'm thinking it has something to do with the depot. And it's making me fuming mad at the treating team; because they're not doing nothing about it. So essentially the depot is causing my suffering; hence, i get angry at the people and system whom are enforcing it upon me. They're supposed to be eliminating my suffering; not, contributing to it. Very frustrating! Because, no matter what i do... -how well i live up to their guidelines of what it means to be mental well, I'll always be suffering from the terrible depot side effects. Hence... why i give up hope and think there's no point anyway... Hence... why i get so annoyed at the professionals...

Hello @eudemonism

I am not sure what you mean by that statement and I want to be certain that I understand your message so that I can respond properly..without saying the wrong thing or offending you..

Are you able to use different words so that I know that I have it right in my mind?

All I'm going to ask the psychiatrist is... 'have you got anything you'd like to say?' And then walk out on him. Because i know he can do nothing to help me any way...
