Struggling to Share My Emotions

I feel like I can’t tell anyone how I’m really doing because I’m scared they don’t really care so then it would be dumping unnecessary emotions on them. But I’m worried I’m self sabotaging by doing that. I have anxiety about eating and nausea because of PCOS and it cycles into a bad mood because I feel like I can’t eat but I need to.

Sameeee. My go-to answer is always "super duper" when someone asks how I am with a sarcastic tone and people always laugh and it usually ends there. But when is it okay to actually start those conversations and why should anyone care about how I'm doing??

I think it’s okay to start the conversation because everyone feels this to some degree and people do care about you

Weed is the only thing that helps all these symptoms at once

omg i have PCOS too!! I didn’t even know nausea could be caused by PCOS. I expérience it daily and i know how you feel. I used to have the same disordered eating but right now i mostly binge:(. I go in cycles of both. Please talk to someone. Idk how old you are but if you don’t have any friends or family you can trust try school counselors or a therapist. It can take a lot of weight off and possibly lead you to find a solution.

thank you!! I’m 21 and trying to get a therapist so hopefully it works out. The disordered eating gets really bad with stress from school and I have very little appetite unless I’m high :/

Holy crap...I have the same issue. I go through cycles of being totally nauseous most days where even thinking of food throws me into anxiety. I'm already a skinny person so losing any amount of weight causes even more anxiety. I'm working with my therapist in this bc it is controlling my life.

I tend to treat my co-workers as unwilling therapists. I have the kind of anxiety that manifests itself as word vomit. So...Idk. It's actually easier for me to tell shit to strangers. I don't talk emotions well with people I'm close to. So I just kind of, let it out during a lul at work and let them be my yes men. Haven't done that in a while tho (haven't had a job). I also have trouble with not eating btw, it's a recent developement as a result of anxiety about leaving my room. Long story.
