I am not coping well at the moment. I feel like my mental health is like a roller coaster going really fast. Moods are constantly switching so are my alters.
I feel like I'm stuck in my own thoughts at the moment and feel like I can't escape them. My panic attacks are becoming more frequent than usual. Feeling numb aswell.

@Fluttershy1 I’m the same. Some days are really hard, others I can manage better.
I’m sorry you get stared at because you have a disability, that makes it harder to cope with.
Are you a student, or do you work, or are you on a disability allowance.?
I’m watching Americans got talent atm, they have had pigs performing. They were amazing.
Donyou watch any tv?
