Feeling Overwhelmed and Stuck in My Mind

I have this too. I call it “the wall”. It feels impenetrable. Sometimes it feels like it will never end. But it always does. I still deal with it, and I’m sorry you’re going through this. The only thing that helps me is finding a universally safe place. For me that’s bathrooms. Pretty much everywhere has one, and even if it’s public, you can generally find a stall. If this isn’t possible I just leave. Sometimes, depending on the circumstances, that’s not possible either. But by now, I’ve done it enough times that my brain has kinda learned, okay, now is the time to calm down. It took a long time to get to this point, but I hope it helps.

Visualization. Picture calming, beautiful, peaceful things. Go in nature and just breathe. Grounding. Observe your surroundings, focus on something and study it. Journaling. Write it down to help release.

I’m on a lot of medication too. I also use cannabis. I just hope that you can kinda relax becuz I’m a little concerned for you becuz you feel like you want to die. But you’ll get through this day just like you did yesterday.
