so right now I feel lonely, lost, depressed and worthless... I'm so tired of not being able to take care of myself and my daughter independently. every since I lost my job I been feeling extremely worthless. I haven't worked since 2020 and so much gas transpired since then. My mental health was out of control and I tried to SA. Now I feel stuck waiting to see if I will get approved for my disability claim for my mental health. I miss the old me. the focused, ambitious, independent and outgoing me. I don't know who I am anymore. each day I feel like I'm losing myself. From a suicide attempt to a scary pregnancy to now back living at my parents house the main place and ran away from because of all the toxic dysfunctional trauma. I do not feel ok mentally. seriously wish I had someone to talk to. The few friends I have left got their own lives to live. the last thing they need is to hear from me with my issues. I'm so ready for my life to get better I need a change a break through! tired of faking like I'm ok. I hate feeling like a burden, worthless and a failure. idk. I know I'm probably telling too much of my business but I'm try my best to keep my mind straight I feel so depressed and I don't want a suicidal ideation episode to creep up on me again. 🥺😭

      @Zenah 👍I agree that learning to recognize the lies you tell yourself is huge in recovery. We're usually our own worse enemies so if we can silence that ridiculous, negative inner voice it's a big weapon to fight with. Same with recognizing that every single episode DOES EVENTUALLY PASS. No exceptions. Just hold on ChrissyB. You've got this. You're not alone.

      First of all you are absolutely not alone. You have so much support on this platform. Please give yourself grace. I was in one Of the most darkest nine years of my life from 2011 to 2020. I was having panic attacks, and the most scariest debilitating thoughts. I had two little girls at the time. Scared to be home by myself. I thought I was losing it. One night I couldn’t sleep the anxiety was so bad. I turned on the television and this ad came on called “from panic to power” by Lucinda Bassett. I couldn’t believe it I’m in shock that that’s all that I was going to is decided to pop up on the TV late at night. I was so desperate for help. I bought the program and began to follow it and within the 3rd week my panic attacks were gone. I started implementing so many positive things to fix my thought pattern. She said in her program That 95% of your anxiety and panic from your negative thoughts, what we say to ourselves on a daily basis. Everything is a habit thinking positive thoughts and or negative thoughts we must turn around to think negative. When you have a negative thought say to yourself “these thoughts are all lies, they are not my thoughts”. Negative thoughts are just gray clouds passing by. They will pass just try not to give them power. You are not worthless! You are a wonderful gift, a precious mother to your daughter. From one mama to another YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Here for you🙏🏽💐
