I had to purchase a new phone today. While adding contacts from my old phone I realized there were maybe three contacts I felt necessary to add. The rest I could do without, and I haven't been in touch with for a couple of years. Thought it was funny. :giggle: For now I'm actually ok with not...

As the title suggest, I have to head back to my highschool to request transcripts be sent out to colleges. My counselor and some of the same representatives still work there. That's good in a way but, they're going to remember me. I will have to make chit-chat. They're going to ask what I've...

I'm aware that theory is inaccurate in some events. I come to my senses and can brush it off. What hurts the most and doesn't leave, just drills a hole in my heart, is when I think loved ones are judging me. Or friends and family of people I care deeply about. I was feeling motivated today...

This has been happening to me the past couple of months. Random speed races I call them. I'm not thinking anything inparticular at the time, nor is it a negative thought playing over and over. Usually it happens when I'm in the shower. It's happening right now. It feels almost like being hyper...

Sorry guys, no offense. You're still welcome on this thread haha. I wish I could meet some girls who share similar personalities. But where and how? There's so many here that I think I'd mesh with, but you're all so far. *reaches hands out and grasp air* I need girls in mah life! Just a...

Sitting here thinking. If I want to attempt to go the pre-med route I'm not going to be able to do a half a** job like I do with everything else. Though, I've taken time off school and work so that already sets me back. I need guidance of some sort.. aside from an academic advisor who else can I...

Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing ok today. I most certainly am not. Anyway, that's not the point of this thread. As cheesy as this may sound, and as much as my anxiety heightens expressing myself- I just wanted to say how much I appreciate the members here. Even if I don't know you...

My mate was on a mini vacation for a couple of weeks. I was supposed to have gotten some school applications out of the way. Due to plain slacking, depression and a financial issue (which haulted me and made me anxious so I gave up altogether in getting this done) I did not complete this task...

I was given a journal recently that I'm required to write in. Don't have a space to call my own, and I don't want to lug it around everyday in my bag. What are some really good spots I can hide it that family wouldn't think to look? If they ever read it, I'd melt. Is it possible to lock it with...

Thought this would be an interesting article to post. Feel free to discuss. Pentagon opens combat roles to women I was pretty excited when I heard this. Mainly because the idea of joining keeps shifting in and out of my mind.

It's art based healing mixed with CBT. Today was my first session and I have to say, I think it went well. It's a bit difficult to focus on drawing while talking. I was introduced to mandalas (buddhist, hindu symbol representing wholeness), and was given a journal. I was told to decorate a...

I've always had a huge problem making and sticking to a schduele. Maybe it's a question of motivation, discipline, and lacking focus- don't really know. If there's something that involves going out, I feel as if I have to prepare for it. Using planners hasn't worked. To do lists are never...

I had a consultation with a therapist today. I get very upset when I'm not able to articulate myself clearly, especially around strangers. I get choked up, can't think of a word and just overall come down very hard on myself. The therapist asked me a simple question about a topic that is the...

I know the logical answer. Step out of my comfort zone, make a collected effort to keep in contact and hang out. But these actions feel like things I will have to relearn and force myself to do. How hard is it to text someone right? People ask me that alot. My answer is, incredibly hard for me...

I was feeling pretty lousy today. My anxiety and depression have increased due to a medication I'm taking. I decided to stop taking it today and was heading outside when a family member alerted me they heard meowing in the bushes. I love animals, I'd jump in freezing ice water to save one...

Hello all. I'm not looking for a diagnosis, just some insight. I'll be seeing a therapist shortly. I'd never considered the possibility of OCD before, though I find my anxious thoughts loop over and over again in daily life. Aside from that I have a particular habit I partake in. I pluck...

:question: I'm sure this thread has been created before. My view might be a little bizarre though; I'm wondering if anyone else thinks the same way or has shared similar experiences. I've always had poor eye contact. If someone is engaging in a conversation with me I can hold it just fine. I...

Hiii, New member here. Yet to be diagnosed but i'm pretty sure I have AvPD which stemmed from social anxiety.. that is now generalized. :thumbup: The last few weeks have been terrible; just woke up from a long sleep. I've got to search for a job and i'm dreading it even though i'm on very...
