I’m back for my shift for this new job. I an currently in the toilet trying to calm myself. Jeez this really sucks

Guess what? I’m feeling down again that’s why I am here. A lot of things have happened since then and it’s mostly positive things. First, I got a new job apart from my current job. It’s the job that I really wanted to have and fits my personality. Second, we’re building our own house pretty...

On the day I was beginning to recover from my depressed mood is also the day I learned that my father is diagnosed with cancer. Now I’m sinking back worse than before. My dad is still young. We’re continents away from each other. I haven’t seen him from a long time. I’m now thinking how many...

I think I am having some depressed episodes again. It’s not obvious from the outside and I am still functioning like doing the usual stuff and routine in life. However, it’s been a week and I could not relieve this feeling of anxiety. Like everytime I wake up I feel anxious for no reason at all...

I think my main issue is that creating real connection to people requires some vulnerability and I don’t want to do that unless I am convinced that the person is to be trusted. I dont want the person end up judging me or backstabbing me if he/she gets to know the real me.

Ugh speaking of I’m about to go to work and I’m having really bad anxiety RT. This often happens to me whenever I get the long shift and I dont know why. I’ve been silently stressing about this day for several days now. I just binged eat some chocolate wafers just to comfort me and it’s such a...

Aside from my anxiety is that I have a terrible trust issue. Everytime I meet new people, no matter how good is their impression to me, I always have this default perspective that people are not nice until proven otherwise. Because of that, I usually stay on a polite relationship with them- nice...

I know I have improved a lot compared to myself in highschool but aside from social anxiety, I struggle a lot with expressing myself well. I know it’s not just the anxiety because I am comfortable with my husband and my sister but when I’m sharing stories or giving an in depth opinion about...

Hi, you may not remember me but I used to be very active in this site. I started the 'whatever journal' thread when I was in College and finished it after I got married. Now that I'm a mum, I decided to make another part 2 journal thread so I can collect all my thoughts in this new SA journey...

Hello! I'm back and for those who can still remember me, I used to be active in my journal way back when I was still a Uni student till I got married. I decided to end my journal thread just because I felt that I had to put a conclusion somehow... and I guess it was the best time to end it...

Hi the title of my thread says it all. Let's make it simple by following this format: Born in what season ? (Autumn, Spring, Summer or Fall) or if you were born in a tropical country (Wet or Dry season) Major health concerns or Problems? (Allergies, Neurological issues, Chronic illness etc)...

This is becoming more of an issue now. Before, it doesnt bother us much because his social interactions are mostly his teammates and i am not obliged to meet them since i always have an excuse and i dont really watch sports. Now, he has formed close friendships with some of them and my hubby...

Today i realized that its not only social phobia that i have but "perfectionism". I have a chronic case of maladaptive perfectionism and i learned it because of my over disciplinary mom who spanks me everytime i make a fckin mistake. I know i have an anxiety temperament. Maybe i was born that...

I dont know if it has been discussed here. But I recently read new research about serotonin actually aggravating anxiety. According to them people with anxiety disorder have higher than usual serotonin and even uses the excess back to the brain. I dunno if it's real but if it's true then maybe...

Soon I have to renew my passport. I know it shouldn't be a big deal but I have the option to change my surname to that of my husband's. However, I am hesitant to do it. It's just a name right? But for me it is something that I am so attached with. It feels so wrong... impersonal... it's like it...

I feel like I will never learn to drive well... EVER! I am so pressured, confused, unsure when I'm on the road. Multitasking just stresses me so much. Too many things to see, too many things to look out for. Too many things to remember. It's just overwhelming. I've already done like 30 hours...

Hi, a friend wants to sell her Toyota Yaris 2013 for 14000 aud coz she's going overseas soon so it's a rush sale. The mileage is less than 7000 and the car is in good condition... is it a good deal???

In Japan, there's what people call Sanpaku eyes, Illuminati, wolf eyes or three whites. It is believed to be a sign of imbalance whether emotionally or physically. It is often associated with depression or people with a tendency to be violent. So sanpaku is perceived as 'dangerous'. I have...

I've started reading this article when suddenly a friend commented on my Facebook page that the movie I rated deserves a 3.5 instead of 1. I was about to reply that it's too boring for me when I suddenly hesitated and thought that maybe I shouldn't reply at all or atleast put a smiley face...
