Nobody believes or understands me usually when I say that it's "bad timing"

Your comment makes me angry and gives me the urge to prove you wrong

No wonder this site is dying. People like you.

Meds or Me?

I dunno if they are. I have never told any family or people about my issues other than my friend and this site and medical professionals.
I think my mom has told some people things but that's probably just cause they can see the scars and ask. They never ask me. I dunno if that's cause they already know or if they just think its not polite to ask.

I never choose to make a scene. I'm behaved. When I melt down it's like a triggered thing I have no control.
I'm too timid to ask such a thing. But it's okay. For now I'm okay. I dont know how I'll be the whole time but I will try my best to be okay. I just hope they respect my space with as little as I will have.

Meds or Me?

Growing up the way I did. I'm afraid to fall asleep and not be somewhere secure and safe. I need a lock and I sleep best knowing they cant get in I dont feel safe upstairs even though I probably am.

See I can recognize my behavior and thoughts as irrational but I still cant change them. That's how I truly feel and think.

Tell us more about the stupid guests and the hunting trip they all seem to want to attend. Do they not own their own printers?!

To make matters worse mom made me give them my room and uproot all my cats and myself upstairs where I cant get away and we are in a small bed room. Scared to leave the room and pariniod that they will open the door when in sleeping so that paranoia over powered my night meds. And now I gotta do it all again this whole week starting friday
And again for Christmas.

I'm worried I wont be ae to keep it together because this is alot of stress for me. But I'm trying

The Struggle.

Yeah my body hurts from holding it so long but my stress overpowers me sometimes.
I'm pretty stable now as far as depression and crying and meltdowns but I'm still paralyzed by anxiety and paranoia. If I am paranoid to leave my room, I won't.

Iโ€™ve been off my anxiety medicine for awhile now since I lost my health insurance a few months ago.

Do you live in the USA? If so, go to your local health and human services. They will see you without insurance and if you cant afford your visit, they are usually willing to waive the cost.
They will have a counselor sit down with you and figure out about you. If they think you need help urgently theyll work there magic and get you help asap.

I have anxiety too. My anxiety usually leaves to pariniod thoughts and an agitation that makes me not fun.

There are natural ways people have chosen to get rid of anxiety but I've never found a very affective one other than animals.
Unfortunately though they are just a distraction for a while and if you got bad anxiety like me you can find a million new reasons to be anxious.
Sometimes just having someone validate your feelings can be enough to ease your anxiety. When you feel someone is truly listening and hears you out without judgement of how you feel or think. Then they can slowly help you lessen your anxiety.
I'm willing to be that friend whenever. If anyone knows what your going through its me.

Essential oils have worked for alot of people in the mental health world. I dont see how oils can help and I havent tried it.
But maybe you can buy the scent for anxiety and give it a go?

Otherwise I'd try to get in touch with some local services.

I tried essential oils (lavender really calms me) but then I read that if my kitten accidentally ingests it he will die and I freaked out and stopped using it. ๐Ÿ˜“

I need someone to talk to other than my husband but the problem is I donโ€™t have time to dedicate my friends and I feel like if I canโ€™t be there for them, I should expect them to be there for me, right? So I donโ€™t even ask.

Iโ€™m going to look into going back to my therapist. I think I need to carve out that time from my schedule. And pay for it out of pocket!

If you cant afford it, your local health and human services center has therapists that will see you for free.

I wish I could do anything.

Venting is always good. Letting off the steam before you act out. That's what I do in my writings too.
