    I don't deserve to relax. I don't deserve the TV.
    I'm tried both physical and emotional

    Trying to relax but I can't.

    Not even my essential oils are helping. I just keep drifting. Spacing out and snapping back into reality

    Sigh. Just sigh

    Thank you @Past User

    I wish people could hug in real. It's so hard not to actually see a friend and have a hug and chat 😭 
    I miss real hugs

    I feel like others don't understand my past and jump to conclusions about me..

    I'm always a burden

    @GreenTea no you're not, you are so important to so many people and you help so many others to, you are not a burden. 
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Thank you. I'm struggling so much but keep putting others first
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    I wish I could feel somewhat better, but it doesn't matter what I do, I just feel so useless and deflated
  • Former MemberFormer Member Discussion Boards Moderator Posts: 991 Part of The Mix Family
    I'm sorry to hear you're struggling so much at the moment @GreenTea I hope you know how much everyone here on the boards cares about you. <3

    I know for a lot of people recovery can seem like it's never-ending and it's totally understandable that you're feeling deflated right now but there's always light at the end of the tunnel eventually. It might help you to just try and focus on one thing at a time so you don't get overwhelmed and celebrate every small victory you can. We're rooting for you!

    Thank you Riley. 
    I'm so mentally and physically exhausted every single day at the moment
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Feeling some what bit better but still feel like a burden and not good enough
  • Former MemberFormer Member Discussion Boards Moderator Posts: 660 Incredible Poster
    Hey there @GreenTea it's positive that you are feeling a bit better, although I can hear that you are still having feelings around being a burden and feeling like you aren't good enough. Here at The Mix you are definitely not a burden to us, and we are here to listen.  :)

    Do you want to talk more about what makes you feel like you are a burden and not good enough?  <3


  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Unkind people. My own brain. I feel the big black cloud has sucked me in and can't spit me out
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    My heart rate is high. I feel weak and shakey and my legs feel so heavy..
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Being alone with loud intrusive thoughts is the most terrifying and horrific experience.
  • SienaSiena Posts: 15,759 Skive's The Limit

    ~Probably dead now

    Thank you @Shaunie
    I'm just so full of hate towards myself.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Discussion Boards Moderator Posts: 660 Incredible Poster
    Hey @GreenTea do you want to talk more about why you feel hate towards yourself, I can imagine its tough to be experiencing so sending you lots of hugs your way.  <3
  • Former MemberFormer Member ☕🌻☕ Posts: 12,938 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
    Thank you jade.

    I hate my body. Hate how I look, hate how disgusting and fat I am. 
  • Former MemberFormer Member Discussion Boards Moderator Posts: 660 Incredible Poster
    No worries at all @GreenTea it sounds like you have a pretty tough relationship with body image is that right? That can be really tough so sending hugs your way.  <3

    Have you thought about each day maybe trying to write one thing you like about yourself? it can be small, maybe about something you are good at or your personality, it may just help overtime to build up your sense of worth and self esteem.  :)

    How are you feeling today? You deserve support and The Mix is always here to listen!

    Just want to disappear. Nobody cares. Nobody wants to help me.

    Be great if you all stopped editing my posts. It's putting me off wanting to post.

    Your posts are being edited because they aren't within community guidelines, @GreenTea. 

    I know your posts being moderated can be demotivating, but the solution to that is to make sure what you're writing adheres to the guidelines. If you're feeling a bit swept up in the heat of a moment, try your best to step back from the situation and self-moderate where you can.

    Drop us a PM if you want to continue this conversation. :)
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.
