gently caress, goddamn fishmech isn't in the top3 contrarian or awful people I know, and that's just the neuroatypicals. The bar is so much lower than you think. We's a species of fuckups.

print out the last 24 hours of your posts and bring them to your therapist. If you're reluctant to do this then you aren't being honest with them in your sessions. speaking as a person that was married for almost a decade to somebody who responded to any and all criticism with "god i'm so stupid, i loving suck, i should just kill myself," it's an incredibly difficult thing to break through for parties on either side. But we're not trained, certified or under any responsibility to do so.

you have a long life ahead of you and though I know it doesn't help anything now, everybody in here will assure you that they were similarly lost and scared at that age. the world is terrifyingly large and incredibly complex machinery and it's hard to learn to navigate it and find your path. i'll be 42 next month and i'm _still_ writing my story. Nobody has it easy except for born-rich kids, and those have a disproportionately large voice in society compared to their actual population numbers.

you can also spend your life making wacky off the cuff justifications why you can't do things, like how you think your therapist is too stupid to understand "i worked on a computer project a whole lot the past few days and it was unfamiliar territory, and i got frustrated and upset because i consider myself to be good at this stuff"

hbag posted:this just sounds like further proof as to why i should go on a snack run to the medicine cabinet yeah dont start doing suicide-adjacent poo poo, and don't joke about that kind of stuff. if somebody's using the forums to spray suicidal ideation and stuff like that, they quite often end up permabanned and referred to a helpline because it has a real and very damaging influence on others, and letting someone say that poo poo without telling them to knock it off normalizes it in their thought patterns and thereby makes it worse on the person saying it, too suicidal hyperbole isn't cute it and it isn't acceptable (at least not in a medium like this one). i dont know if you're really in that bad of shape or being hyperbolic, but please stop repeating that sort of thing in either case. please get more help. go to the therapist every day if necessary. please do not hurt yourself.

dude/dudette: being honest here doesn’t get you help being honest with your therapist gets you help, and either your therapist is incompetent and saying everything is fine, or you’re clamming up with them and not telling them anything like look, I’ve literally been in a mental hospital (nearly 10 years ago now) for stuff I don’t really like talking about (<5 people know), and during group I basically clammed up and pretended everything was fine I got nothing out of that and it isn’t until now that I’m 24 that once I’ve got health insurance on the first, I’m willing to be open and honest with a shrink

hbag posted:no as you get older ive noticed you get more and more responsibilities and guilt piled on top of you I don't have responsibilities piled on me, I choose to have responsibilities because there's a lot of poo poo I think should get done, and if I'm not willing to take on the responsibility, who, exactly, gives a poo poo about what I think should happen? Yeah, I ramble on, I sometimes melt down, I'm a sorry sight most of the days, and yet... I'm often the only helping hand when one's needed. I could complain about how none of it matters seeing the shape the world is in... but saving the world isn't the responsibility I've chosen to have.

my first real job where i put on slacks and a button up and did computer touching for a wage was at 14 years old, at a hospital. my parents were deadbeats both who lived off constant remortgaging and splurging on useless poo poo like riding lawn mowers and lots of booze, and i was on my own for clothes and poo poo so i kinda had to
