UP DOWN - SIDE TO SIDE - PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR IF YOU FEEL YOU JUST DONT CARE!!! turn yeah smilewinkgrin

had a panic attack last night over utter nonsense i tell you. Meds been giving me dreams like a crazy person[I KNOW I AM BUT STILL]

Today i feel like a yoyo, couldnt breathe this morning, took my pills, drank a energy drink, now i feel like i can fly shocked

I DONT CARE ANYMORE, IM SO TIRED OF THIS NEVER ENDING CHASE TO FEEL NORMAL. WHO THE HELL KNOWS WHAT NORMAL IS... SO TIRED OF HAVING TO BE AWARE OF WHAT I WATCH AND WHAT I HEAR BECUASE I MIGHT BECOME OBESSED...

So tired of making sure i take my pill each day, so tired of making sure that I remain centered becuase I might go off the rails again.

SO TIRED OF LIFE!!! skull ITS OVER-RATED ANYWAY

Slow down and take some deep breaths. It really does help. Be careful with the energy drinks, caffiene isn't good for us. Though I know when you are depressed, a little can feel like it helps, but a lot is bad for you. Your mind needs peace and relaxation.

Keep trying, know that we care about you. I hope that your day gets better.

Hugs, Karen

Hi, Breathing helps... Very True.... But I keep feeling like the crazy lady inside my head is trying to take over and rule my life.

Thinking about it, analyzing it only drives me more over the edge. Whatever i see on TV, i become obsessed with and then imagine it in my head for days, if there's a pregnant woman, then im depressed cause i wanna be pregnant too. i google babies and rooms and i mean its nonsense. I know for a fact i cant have more kids but i obsess.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME?????????????

It sounds like you have obsessive thinking. There are medications for that. I take abilify. It really helps. Try occupying your time with constructive things. Maybe start a project that you have been wanting to do. Keep your mind busy and focus on the moment. Things work out in life. Just take it as it comes.

Welcome to the forum!

I have to point out that the energy drink is NOT helping your situation. Please try to stay away from them.

You may have obsessive thoughts, you may have racing thoughts. Either way you need to slow down, breathe and think of you in the now.

You are missing out on a lot of life. Meditation and mindfulness can help you stay in the moment and enjoy the NOW without worrying about what you don't have and what other people do have.

www.mindful.org is a great place to start.

A daily Gratitude Journal is a great place to start also. Keep a note book by your bedside. Each night before you go to bed, write down what you are thankful for most from that day. No matter how small.
Tissues, hot water, your dog. whatever it is write it down. You will be amazed at how it will grow and your attitude and outlook on life will calm and change in time. Be persistant.

Stay strong
Peace
