I do the that (get lost in my head) all the time but it's getting better, and I at least got a job I start Monday which is like half of the mental health struggle I've had for the past few years. Good med dose pals ![]() deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 22:31 on Oct 18, 2023 |

Well the past few months of mania has finally turned. I took a lot of photos and learned a lot about my art. But I lost my job and quit school completely. Turn turn turn 😫

For myself, I have actually been getting better these past few years. When I graduate, my hope is to get a job and support myself independently. I might even come out ahead. I need a job that is in town and doesn't require driving, allows me to sit down while working for the most part, and has a regular schedule, leaving aside temporary and infrequent crunch periods. I am hoping an accounting degree can enable that, provided I am picky with the employer.

if anything things are on a path of slowly backsliding but also I've developed more of an ability to not give a gently caress so the crush is usually temporary

I'm about to make an appointment just to stick up my doctor for his notepad and fix this poo poo myself. it's impossible to find a doctor or plumber or electrician or mechanic or whatever else worth half a poo poo. impossible to find anyone who puts forth the smallest modicum of give-a-gently caress into their job. and everything takes so looooong

I made an appointment with a psychiatric RN instead of a doctor like 7 months ago and the experience has been great after never ever finding a good doctor. I don't know if it's because they're an RN or if I was just lucky though. |

Good luck SC. I've had experience with two APRNs. One was no longer working alongside a Psych, so they couldn't prescribe me meds for the ADHD Inattentive she diagnosed me as. The other APRN WAS working with a psych, and disagreed that I was ADHD, but got me some anti depressants that did nothing. They definitely seem like the better way to see a pshrink about healthcare, tho. —27 |

I haven't smoked weed in 7 days and it feels good ![]() deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Nov 19, 2023 |

deep dish peat moss posted:I haven't smoked weed in 7 days and it feels good that's good to hear! and also good job sticking with it. it's very difficult to reduce smoking. weed is my poo poo. I could easily smoke an oz or more per week if not for the cost. as it is I still spend too much on it. I'm trying to reduce but there are also fewer and fewer things that keep me from imploding. beer makes me feel lovely but it's cheaper, so I've been in a cycle of that but my stomach is unhappy and I don't like the way it feels the next day, only in the moment. apparently not enough to keep me from getting it, though.

some weird stuff has happened, I realize this is weird. at work, a week ago we got a call from a lady who was asking about her father who had been missing for about 4 days. They live near where I work, and so she was asking if we had seen someone who fit that description in our cemetery. couple days later we got a call, a new funeral incoming for this exact man. Afterward, I found a newspaper article about how he had been found in a body of water not far from where I work. I met with the family yesterday and arranged the site and burial information and stuff. Helped them pick a grave. it's weird to meet with the daughter of someone like that. someone you're informed about like that. that's just bullshit. they set up speakers and card tables at the funeral and partied a little in celebration of this dude. it was kinda cool. Also, yesterday I met with the parents of this infant who we're burying today. all of that is depressing enough. The parents were very, very young. Today, we got a call from the parents, at the scheduled burial time. they asked my coworker where the hearse was. they were at the site and the funeral home didn't show up on time. for their fuckin kid. Just a while ago tonight I was drinking and walked down to the little pier I fish from sometimes. I felt the water, to experience a fraction of what that man may have felt. fuuuuuck that. poo poo is too depressing. none of these things should have happened. I know it happens worldwide day in day out but man that poo poo just isn't cool, and gently caress that.

Sorry about all that, SC. Sounds like you're an empath, which is really tough at times.

Good luck with it, duder. You're putting in the work, that's the best you can do, so if it doesn't work out or takes longer than you'd like, you get to say gently caress it, I'm doing my best. |

Today was my bday and it almost always makes me a Sad Boi because life is going well but it's not the life I wanted for myself Today no one outside of y'all and my partner wished me a happy birthday, and I made dinner, and I overall just got treated like it was just a normal day when my days are always about others. It sucks. I've been riding the lows for a few weeks now and I really hoped to feel some iota of special today but I didn't get a drat thing from anyone and I would kind of like to cry about it, but if I do then my partner would stay up late to comfort me when she didn't even do anything wrong, it just wasn't a nice day and she deserves better than to stay up on a day when she has to get up at 3am. it sucks |

DUde if im with someone and they need me to stay up till 3 am and go to work im getting out the tripple coffee shots, ritalin. whatever i need to get it done. thats how relationships are supposed to work the idea that you shouldnt expect too much of a partner is bs dude/orb. its their fuckin job and if they dont like it there's the door as meah pace says

It's not about perceived annoyance, like I know she'd rather me wake her up and just go without sleep than have me sit here sad as gently caress It's about choosing to put her through my poo poo intentionally, specifically on work nights. It just makes me feel worse about it all. There isn't really a solution to the problem outside of "pick up a book and fall asleep" and I'm not tired enough to do that just yet Compounding issue is that there was a very nice lady that I was really vibing with that I was talking to for a couple weeks, and this weekend she dropped my rear end because she's monogamous. Like ma'am. We're poly. That doesn't mean we rail our friends, or that we date people together. I was talking to you as a friend, why you do this??? It's just been a rough time all together and it all fell on me today I think |

sorry i didnt realize you were poly ![]() not to judge but maybe thats not appropriate for the mental health thread which is about mh ultimately not relationships. sorry ive decided to do better by this thread so i understand posting like that but it's not like.... in the exact right arena for this

Yea, I don't know what fyad stuff is, or means, but I feel it's gross to gatekeep what qualifies as mental health concerns for other members. I felt this was a thread for members to openly and safely discuss the things going on in their life that are.affecting their mental state, and I feel it's disgusting to single out a member who has things going on in their life that you don't understand and tell them that it doesn't qualify for the mental health thread because it doesn't meet your bar for "mental health." Further to degrade their life experience by mocking their relationship views. —27 |

trust me i am surrounded by screaming people at the psych ward listening to belle & sebastian to calm down wondering if theres been any examples posted here of polyoramy leading to negative thought spirals or being affective in any way sometimes in the mh thread i will recommend taking a valium or something but its all good
