Something’s not right

Completely Lost

Completely Lost

Hi sorry I have been away I was in hospital but it was not helpful at all and kind of made things a lot worse which I guess isn’t unexpected considering my previous experiences with that hospital.

Everything is too much I can’t even sit in my living room without feeling overwhelmed. I am still struggling to communicate I am trying I am but no one understands what I mean and then they think they do but they don’t and I feel like I am not speaking English to people anymore because they always say something weird or maybe I am not saying the words I think I am and something different is coming out. Either way people are still not understanding. I am trying so hard but I feel like any minute I am about to snap. I want to scream but I can’t I want to cry but I can’t I keep shaking cause I am scared all the time and I still can’t sleep and everything looks weird and feels weird and I am trying and no one is understanding me and I keep trying to “get help” before I can’t because I know soon I won’t be able to I can feel it coming again but worse than the last time and no one is understanding I feel trapped in my own body like I am screaming in there and no one can see or hear because outside I am sitting quietly and that is all they see. I am trying I just wanted 3 things only 3 and they aren’t big things only one is a little big but not something impossible just 3 things and I am trying so freaking hard to cling on in case I can still have them but I know deep down I won’t get them I know deep down I am fighting for nothing fighting just so that I can lose I know this and yet I am still clinging but I don’t know if I can’t let go because I don’t know how or because it is the only thing keeping me in this world keeping me attached to anything. 1 day isn’t a long time for most people but 5 minutes is long for me 5 minutes is me pacing unable to sit, 5 minutes is me wincing because they keep hurting me, 5 minutes is me biting my nails until the bleed and not even realizing until it hurts. I can’t keep waiting and I can’t keep standing where I am. Nothing I am doing is working so I can’t fix this myself but no one will help and no one understands.

But then what can I expect when this was all just a big trick a joke from the start I was never meant to be ok and they knew that do I go where they want and give up or are they having too much fun playing I am trying I try and make everyone else happy but I can’t and I try and I can’t even explain it here nothing I am so tired I am so freaking tired but not the kind of tired sleep or rest can fix.

I am just so stressed and anxious and everything is too much all the time. I am hearing things a lot and I am struggling to do even basic tasks this will sound super gross but I haven’t been able to clean my room in like 5 months I was meant to be studying to keep up with stuff and I haven’t done any of that even typing is getting difficult I keep muddling up the letters like if I was dyslexic except I am not and never was unless you can develop it randomly I keep running out of clean clothes because I can’t keep up with my washing, I can only manage to brush my teeth once a day, I feel like a horrible person because I am supposed to be doing more for my pets and honestly if it weren’t for my mother helping I would have had to give them up because I am not able to look after them properly which I hate and makes me feel so horrible because I love them so much and they deserve so so so much more and I feel like I am running their lives. But I pretty much can’t even look after myself and everyone on the outside seems to think I am fine because I look “ok” I seem like these things aren’t so hard and it isn’t a motivation or depression thing it is like I can’t organize my head around doing even small things. These things I type here take me so long everything takes me so so long. I feel like my mind is melting and I keep pacing and stopping in the middle of things and I am just struggling so so much and no one sees it even my parents don’t see the full extent no one does cause I hide it cause I am embarrassed and don’t have the energy to explain it to people. Plus I am scared they will realize and stop me from being able to do independent things altogether.

I feel like my worlds are melting together and I am so scared all the time because I genuinely don’t think anyone here is human and I also think everyone is trying to hurt me and that I am being watched constantly and that a group of deities is trying to make me do things so they can sacrifice me and eat my soul and I am so tired and everything looks wrong the walls move the ground moves, peoples faces change, even the shadow people look weird, everything is crumbling and I am trying so hard to keep looking normal but I nearly curled up in a ball and screamed in the Woolworths yesterday and it is even getting hard to keep up with a short conversation. I honestly don’t know what to do, the hospital won’t listen, the crisis team won’t listen, I can’t seem to make my psychiatrist understand even if he is trying it is too slow, my psychologist is still new and I am not sure if I can tell them and if they will understand because they already haven’t understood a few things and I am trying but I am not able to stop this and I don’t know how to fix this.

I am really sorry this this is so long. I guess I am not expecting anyone to know how to fix anything I just feel really lost and emotionally exhausted and I don’t even know what to do.

Re: Completely Lost

@Maggie Thanks

I had a really bad night I had huge panic attack that lasted like 6 hours and I didn’t get much sleep and when I woke up I was still really scared and agitated and I still am and the beings keep telling and showing me how they are going to hurt me and they are asking for things I physically cannot do and I am trying really hard to keep distracted and as calm as I can but everything is a mess and I keep saying sorry to them because I know I made them mad and i didn’t know why at first and I am still saying sorry but it isn’t enough and a really don’t feel good and everything is really overwhelming and I don’t know what to do but I keep messing up and I am trying so hard to make everyone happy and I just there is so much going on and I can’t explain it all and I am really scared of everything and I just don’t feel right and I don’t know what I am supposed to do and I keep thinking “people” are trying to poison me and I just I don’t even know how to describe everything and I feel really off and I don’t even know.

Re: Completely Lost

@Eden1919 You are sounding very distressed. Would you be able to reach out to a helpline? I know you have the numbers, so I won’t put them here now, unless you might need help there. Please take care. 💞💞

Re: Completely Lost

Hi @Eden1919

It sounds like you had a very intense and distressing time last night. Not getting much sleep can make things feel harder too

I can hear you are feeling scared right now but are doing all you can to stay calm and distracted. You are trying your best! I'm glad you are reaching out on the forums, we are all here to support you and sit with you. Also, sometimes we need a little extra support so if you feel up to it could you contact a helpline like @Maggie suggested?

One moment at a time @Eden1919

Re: Completely Lost

@Eden1919 Am so very sorry to hear you had a 6 hour panic attack and are so distressed still. I can hear how hard you are trying. I want to echo @Maggie in saying, can you reach out to a helpline? I'm concerned about how scared and unwell you're feeling...

Re: Completely Lost

@Eden1919

I feel for you about having a panic attack. I echo @Maggie and @NatureLover @concerns over how scared and unwell you are.

If it helps when I have had a panic attack I find somewhere that is quiet and calm to sit or stand. I try to focus on slowing my breathing down and I have some water to drink to help feel better and to stay hydrated.

Re: Completely Lost

@Maggie @Jupiter @NatureLover @jem80 I am kind of scared to call a helpline in case they make things worse plus I don’t want to say something wrong and sometimes when I try and talk it is too hard because there is too much going on. I tried to have a nap before but I couldn’t cause the other beings kept telling me stuff and showing me stuff and I am trying to just lay still and breathe, my family was out and they all just got back and the same time and my mum fainted just before (that happens the her fairly often she is ok) and I am still really stressed though and I am hoping the next few hours will be ok or idk I am just feeling weird still and still agitated and scared and I am just not sure how tonight will go again seeing as I had another panic attack before but it was shorter but it is like they are not completely going away and it is like any minute it might get bad again I can’t explain it properly. I am not even sure which helpline I would ring anyway. I am just stressed cause I am supposed to see my psychologist in a few days and I am trying to just keep calm until then but I am really scared for the appointment and I don’t know how to explain it. I am just trying really hard but I feel like I keep failing.

Re: Completely Lost

@Eden1919 It sounds as if you're really struggling. Does distracting yourself from the beings by watching a movie or playing some music or something that's audible help? Well done for trying to keep calm...

Re: Completely Lost

Good evening @Eden1919

It sounds as if you are really struggling at the moment. Please call a Help Line if you need support off the forums this evening Eden. It may be good to talk it through.

The SANE Help Line is open until 10pm AEST on 1800 187 263 and they will call you back promptly if you leave a voicemail. I am confident the counsellors will not make it worse and may even be helpful.

Please take care,

Witehawk

Re: Completely Lost

@NatureLover Sort of i made dinner and had the tv on in the background which kind of helps but it is hard to focus on the actual shows.

@Former-Member I am not sure I have time to call sand now... I did call them the other day but it didn’t really help and kind of started this stuff all getting so intense so I am still kind of nervous. I know here isn’t for like that sort of thing I just am feeling really unsure about calling anyone plus I am struggling to talk a bit a I am not sure how to explain it I just feel very weird still and I am trying still to stay calm but I just keep getting really scared of everyone and everything and I don’t really know who to trust cause I don’t think anyone is a human still and then if I try and talk to someone on the phone I just get reallly scared and can’t explain it and then it just doesn’t go well. I know everyone here is probably a demon too but at least here I don’t feel like people can find me as easily.
