Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Got something that's bugging you?

Want to vent, but don't want a response?

Sometimes our minds can get stuck in circles trying to sort out an issue. This can keep you up at night, or make it hard to focus on other things. I find that putting things away, and not thinking about it temporarily can be helpful.

This is the place to get it out, and then give yourself permission to let it go.

Maybe you will need to get back to it some other time, but this is space where you can put it in a place so that you can leave it for some time and (try) not to worry about it in the mean time.

It's a thread where people don't need to reply, it purely just to get it out your worry and concerns.

If you want to show your support for someone, hit the 'like' button. In this thread, 'like' doesn't mean that you 'like' someone's issue, but you support them in letting it out.

So write down your concerns, put it in a vault, shut the door, and allow yourself to walk away from it.

Pls note: If you are reading other people's posts, please respect that they don't want a response. Show your support by 'Liking' their post.

I don't respond to any form of treatment except medication and when I finally got onto medication after a lot of unsuccessful treatments my life changed. They were really helpful. But I've been reading over my journals from about 4 years ago (when I was right in the thick of it being traumatised & confused by unsuccessful, talking therapies and drinking heavily to cope with the mental, physical and mood symptoms) and it's pretty sad stuff. Becuase I seem to be in exactly the same place now, getting kicked around by mean people. I recently had a male colleague terrorise me with emotional abuse and a male friend get all snippy, snappy and vicious with me when I stood up for myself. I don't like to make generalisations about gender so I don't think it's a guy thing that they were both aggressive towards me but it has made me scared of men. It's triggered really bad mental symptoms in me.

I almost feel like I'm not on any medication at all they've gotten me down so bad. I'm adjusting my meds to cater for all this stress I feel but that is taking a long time as it's a slow process. It's revolting that these two people felt more than free to lash out at me however they pleased and have not a care how strongly they've impacted me. I've withdrawn socially and wanted to spend a lot more time on my own. I've cancelled social plans. But I had nice social plans today with nice people who are sweet and kind to me, and I woke up with a horrendous migraine (I think it's a side effect of the meds) so I've had to cancel. I'm just waiting for my prescription pain killers to work fully.

I feel like a total failure and a loser. I haven't showered today, I ate about 10 biscuits yesterday from the batch of 20 I baked. My kitchen is a pigsty and haven't brushed my teeth in I think 2 days. I'm really a disgusting slob. I seem to have made little progress since 4 years ago except I'm fatter and have more wrinkles. I still feel exhausted a lot and just about pass out from fatigue every afternoon, I still struggle every day to shower, do the dishes, brush my teeth, wash my hair, cook, clean the kitchen, vacume, stay on top of the laundry. I just don't have the energy. I feel so lazy & like such a slobby failure. I don't understand where everyone else gets their energy from. And I still don't know 4 years later why I'm so vulnerable to and so weak in the face of emotional abuse, no-body else seems fazed by it like I am.

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Yea well... life aye... it sure hasn't turned out to plan or how i wanted it to...

Each day is revealing a new battle, new challenges and new difficulties... literally... I'm constantly dealing with the forefront of my issues/problems... and yes there's a big long list of them... I've tried desperately to deal with them and get my life sorted ~ but they always come back... it's hard to even identity what the problems and solutions are somedays.. it's hard to tell if the problems are internal or external.. and same goes for the solution.. internal or external?? I really don't know.. i get tired of the whole cycle either way it is..

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

I'm achieving very little. It's an effort to shower and get dressed. I've only done a few errands today. I seem to be so unproductive and feel like a fat slob. I'm sooooooo sensitive to the slightest offense or insult, I feel sooooo invalidated by pretty much everyone, it's like no-one understands me and none of my feelings mean anything yet my state of being is taken up almost totally by my feelings. It's extremely annoying to be so sensitive and vulnerable, over-reacting to everything and everyone, I can barely even participate on the forum without triggering my symptoms, it's pathetic. I'm so sick of it.

And it's ridiculous trying to abstain from alcohol. It's just impossible.

I can't cope with saddistic people and insensitive people and angry people. I just can't. It's because I was raised by my saddistic, insensitive, angry parents. But I thought I was over that. I can't beleive it's still a problem for me. In my 40's. The first lot of anti-psychotics I went on were good, I was numbed out on them and could tolerate the company of almost anyone, even my cruel mother. But I had to get off them becuase of diabetes and cholesterol concerns. The ones I'm on now just aren't very strong right now.
