Anxiety Support Group

Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...

Struggling

I have never considered myself to be suicidal, but today especially I find myself thinking about death, about just not being anymore.



I am pretty sure I am in the middle of a mental breakdown, but I can't seem to stop it. I keep fighting with myself over whether or not to just stop, but when can I. When can I get myself taken care of? The answer that I keep seeing tells me just to go fuck myself because I don't deserve to be taken care of. And it is all my fault because I can't talk to anyone about how I feel. 


I can't be uncomfortable (being half-naked in front of a window) without it negatively affecting my relationship. I can't be uncomfortable because my husband gets mad if I am unable to be apart of the conversation, and if my husband gets mad, it could mean getting me or the rest of my family hurt. So I can't be uncomfortable, or angry, or hurt by anything that is going on in my life.

Uh-oh. . . Do I hear the heartbreak of a soul fresh out of a domestic tit-for-tat skirmish? I always feel somewhere between death and hell for weeks after a bloody skirmish. Domestic tit-for-tat gets my vote as the most brutal sport in human history and everybody seems to do it in one form or another.

Forgive me if I guessed wrong. Gentle support while you recover from this downturn, whatever the source.

You are a beautiful human being and please don't let anyone or anything make you feel otherwise! I would recommend talking to a therapist. I'm sorry that you are not able to express yourself and have someone that supports you through everything (the good and the bad) that you are going through. Please seek help and know that there are people that care. Sending hugs <3

Today seems betterish. Not every thought is about how low I am. I would say probably half my thoughts...
I still feel like crap though. I still feel like I am not really allowed to show how I feel about things.
Part of me wonders if it would feel better to have a reaction every time I get mad or upset. Just start carrying a bat around that way I can just smack something... Then I rethink it because I think I would end up hurting everything, and then have no nice things, and it would be all my fault.

angelascrydragon, I am so sorry that you are feeling this way. I would strongly suggest that you stop worrying about everyone else and how your husband is going to react and get yourself some help - find a counselor (1-855-771-HELP (4357) weekdays from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. (Mountain Time)), call the suicide hotline, walk into your nearest emergency room, please do not keep on like this. I am praying that you get help ASAP!!

    Jay's podcasts are really good.  I watch them on YouTube for free.  Today, I watched his video about motivation.  In fact, I've been watching a few videos on this subject.  Jay gave us an assignment to complete the following sentence:  I am stuck because?  I don't describe myself as stuck, but to finish the sentence, I would say that I am stuck because I am tired.  When I have energy, I do...
