my mind is a contradiction. sadly I'm am in an active addiction. thankfully only with nicotine. it got to the point where I lost control over my mind. I am struggling with understanding my efforts. as I write this out, I realize I've practically gone through the same amount of stress of a mid life crisis combined with heaps of trauma. my voices never shut up. it's so confusing. coffee and nicotine stunt the efforts of my medication, making it even harder to cope because I am an addict and these were my compromise drugs for such a long time. I just want everyone to understand, in my mind, and in real life that I am stressed. I am not lazy. people still don't get mental health issues and it breaks my heart every day. you are loved, you are worthy. I need to understand that it is not all my fault. how do you feel? and can we be friends <3

      Seems like you realized some really important things! That’s a big step to make things better. I relate so bad to wanting people to understand I’m not lazy. I rarely meet new people but have had several good experiences. I realized that my perception of society is a little warped to the negative, it feels like everyone would judge me for my failures because I’ve always been in an overachieving and demanding crowd. But when I meet real people outside they’re often understanding. I hope you can get some more validation in real life too, though ofc your own self validation is most important.
