head spinning

Well, today was a day. I feel like maybe I should be writing things in my journal on here but I like the feedback.
Anyway, I don't really know what to do with myself. I'm losing any hope I had for my future. It's all feeling really awful.
Every breath I take is making my head spin with anxiety.
I just don't wanna keep doing this nonsense. I feel like there's no point to anything.

I assure you... There will be days when all is well and days when I wish to bury myself under my covers and avoid the world completely... One thing I learned is to journal... That way I have a clearer perspective regarding those good days and bad days and realize they are not forever... Best wishes to you...

Please stay strong I am new to all of this myself and it is going to take time for us to get better baby steps for us. I am trying to do this and I am scared and nervous with my head spinning and tears pouring down my face I will not give up I am here for a reason I will fight till the end and you can too. Hugs to you, Katie

Little fable, sorry if it sounds condescending, it's not meant to....

I lay in bed after my accident, no pain meds, no pain treatment, docs all saying it was my uterus (my pelvis and lower spine were in fact damaged but it didn't show on X-ray so they didn't look further for 5 effing months) and I begged to know why I couldn't just... go. Be gone. Done.
Hubby burst into tears.
My mom was watching me suffer, uanble to help, and she said simply, "I don't know but maybe I will tomorrow."

I don't know, but maybe... tomorrow.

Tonight? I am also so close to despair.
But I just keep reminding myself.
Today I don't know.
Maye tomorrow.... I'll find just one tiny answer. Find one clue. See one light. Take one step more.

Tomorrow....it's what I've got. Even if I'm bawling my eyes out tonight (and am).... Maybe tomorrow....

Gentlest healing purrs,
Leo

I think my own best days are the ones where I don't need to have a point to anything. I can just kick back and appreciate the show.

Gentle hugs and hopes for healing.

    Sometimes, I think I have ODD.  I can be oppositional.  It seems that the only times that I feel like cleaning are when I should be doing something else or I have to go somewhere.  Well, not everytime but most of the time.  Yesterday, I was supposed to be doing online training for work but instead, I decided to work on my kitchen table.  Most of the time, I don't know where to start and give...

    I have a possible new diagnosis to discuss with my therapist tomorrow.  It might be the answer to a question that I have had since I was 19.  It's called Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD).  It happens to a large percentage of people with ADHD, which I have.  Actually, I have been watching videos about ADD/ADHD lately.  I remember my Mom telling me that she watched a show on ADD and she...
