Last week I was in with these two ladies and this guy came and blocked the steps and said "now nobody is getting out". 😮 I said "oh well..."

I'd have to start pulling the front of my speedo down. I reckon that'd make em get outta my way. It sounds horrible but after you've showered with 49 other men in a barracks.... you really have no more shame.... or that's my experience anyways lol

I've had people get in and ask me my whole life history(at least it felt like it). I've had people get in and start b*tching about all kinds of stuff.

See, that just sounds like working and not getting paid.

I feel awful. I don't understand why, I genuinely do not. I think I had an OKAY night tonight but I am entirely skeptical on how others perceive me. There must something inherently wrong with me that is utterly undeniable and impossible to fix. I feel like I may have embarrassed myself, but I don't know, I genuinely do not know. It's an awful feeling really... to be so unsure about how others have perceived you. Did I do OKAY? Did I say something stupid that would make these people never want to talk to me again? How do I even know? Over thinking is a bitch.

What is worse is that I feel like I have to take an incredible amount of substances to even get myself out into the world, and even then I am still rattled with nerves and insecurities. Both psychically and mentally. That is NOT normal in the slightest. Anxiety and panic (even worse in my opinion) is entirely debilitating. I should not have to combine opiates, benzos and alcohol in order to feel like I can go outside and communicate with others. I often feel like I need all three at once to even get myself out there to function on the most basic levels of human interactions. I honestly might end up accidentally killing myself this way. Does that even matter though? Right now I'm okay, I'll be fine tomorrow, but a few times I have overdone these combinations and struggled to keep myself breathing. I have also woken up the next day in some random places a few times having ZERO or very little memory of the previous night. What the **** is wrong with me. Who does this? I hate myself.

I would give anything to be panic free. Again, it's absolutely debilitating. I feel cursed sometimes, by oh so many things. Cursed by feeling hideous every second of my existence, and cursed by being inflicted with all this nonsense. Not to mention all these ridiculous eye and medical problems that have been popping up lately. In a way I feel like I deserve all of it though.I am a winning combination aren't I? I wish people didn't hate me, I wish people would accept me, I wish I were physically healthy, I wish I were decent looking... I don't want to be me 🙁

By the way, sorry for this long nonsensical rant....

I know the feeling. I was so full of energy the first part of the week and then two days later I have felt like I was in slow motion and in a slump again..Oh well. With me having thyroid trouble, it doesn't help any because I never know when I am gonna crash :idontknow:

So many people here must relate with much of what you said... I certainly do, although I am at a different point in progression. And there is hope that you can progress.

Try to get out of the habit of obsessing over what people think of you. Be conscious and notice when you start obsessing. Make a conscious choice, a conscious effort to move your focus onto something else. Go exercise or cook or do something else to divert your attention instead. Whatever it takes to break that obsession in the moment it happens.

But yeah, I feel you... Fricking anxiety. :kickingmyself:

Overthinking simple situations sucks. I'm sure I, as well as many others here, know what it's like to deliberate over normal interactions. I don't believe there's anything inherently wrong with you, just that you are suffering anxiety and these are some of the side-effects of it.

You're aware of the fact you ruminate too much, and that you're not happy about using substances to get you through it, so recognising these is a good first step if you're willing to overcome these issues.

Psyche, please don't be too hard on yourself. I know its easier said than done but it can be done! Distract yourself when those negative thoughts pop in your mind and treat yourself gently. I'm sorry you're feeling like this *hugs*

Sorry to hear you're feeling this way, Srijita. A good way is to just think about what's important to you and focus on that. Having bad/sad days is a part of the human process, so think about what's important to you (job, career, family, good food, the complete series of Friends on DVD), and also to understand why you're feeling down, where it's come from, and understanding the severity of it. Cognitive processing is good in this case as it can rationalise and limit the pain associated with sadness. 🙂

Haha, yeah, I'm good today. After lots of vomiting, including a massive one at the end, I got whatever was in me out of me. I was a whisker away from going to the hospital, but there's no need to now. 🙂

I am terribly bored and alone. I can never get over this terrible loneliness. Never, ever. I have no idea how to have friends or any one outside family who cares. And thinking about it really really makes me hate everything that is related to friendship, care, love. There are so many terms and condition attached! I fulfill none of them, or a few and that doesn't count.

Interesting you mention thyroid. I've been wondering about that myself.

Do you take medication for that?

I know there's plenty of hope, but there may as well not be any if you don't have people close to you to help you see that. I'm surrounded by demons.
