Feeling this way again. Achey, tired, fatigued, can't sleep, just terrible. So down. I've been like this a few days now. I have so much to look forward to, too, so trying to hold onto that. I have therapy today so hopefully that'll help some, just so cranky and irritable. I'm doing my self care...

Thank you @pam4him !!

That's true @Ronin. It seems like exercise is my best friend with it, just did a lot of movement and that helped a lot, and diet, anti inflammatory and mostly vegan. It's hard though with what my finances had been. But I can always start over fresh!

Thank you @Ronin! I’ll keep trying. Cannabis seems to knock it out for me, and I’m in a legal state and moving to a recreational state, but it’s hard to do all the time.

My doctors say could be could not be, could also be EDS, could also be PTSD related, I've never gotten answers. My grandma has fibromyalgia along with a lot of other hard stuff to deal with. I don't have it constantly, but currently in a pain flare that's what my grandma has said is like her...

4/10 - job search is discouraging, which has caused a negative spiral - just really depressed - talking to people makes it harder because I don't want them to know I'm depressed - shaming myself bc my mood may just bounce back in a day bc BPD - feel like I'm not going to make my dreams happen...

Could you just set up a business page on Facebook or do you need a main account connected to a personal account? I think you can just set up your business account, but I could be wrong. Like Friday says, doesn't have to have your name or anything.

Thank you @Ronin. I’m just going to work on them slowly. I think a job in it would be too stressful while I’m still going to school full time, but for the future I’ll work on the skills a little at a time!

I'm trying to learn some things and get certifications for my resume. Both times I've tried to start these cert classes, I just start sobbing because I feel like I'm so bad at the things I'm trying to learn (when I have no experience/self taught experience in them) I give up and just cry. The...

I had another "episode" last night. I didn't react or act out, so that's at least getting better, but it was 5 hours of heightened emotions and now I'm so, so exhausted. It's nearly noon here and I'm just sort of getting started. I slept 9 hours. I am scared about this with working full time...

There’s certain things I have to quit, because supporting these people is against what I believe in and I can no longer enjoy it. If someone is found doing assault, rape, battery, etc or hate crimes from race or sexuality or any other factor, I feel ill supporting them. But that’s also just me...

Doing it again but had a good few days where I was okay. Haven’t relapsed! It’s just so anxiety inducing. I don’t want to be a person who waits around for a text bc that’s not cool.

This is beautiful and so helpful thank you @TruthSeeker This is what I struggle with the most, the give and take. I think I'm getting better at this, but it's still SO hard. The awareness helps!! I'm going to write my own set of values down, I thought I had some but I think I need to write...

Hi @TruthSeeker I call them that because they're reactionary to perceived abandonment or rejection, and they result in incredible fear (usually masked as anger) and I used to react very badly to them by seeking out reassurance excessively (like sending 50 text messages or calling someone 6 times...

Thank you @RussellSue ! I love weighted blankets too. So far the anxiety has gotten a lot better, dealing with some other stuff now but thankfully no longer panic attacks!

Thank you @nic711 !! I feel this too!! I feel like if your trauma and abusers gaslit you this is especially hard to deal with. But you've got this. Keep writing ?

I've had the same issue before, but with proper therapy even nights like that I can shake. I hope your T provides some help, how did it all go?

I have the same injury as you, a right labrum tear along with a hip impingement and sports hernia and some other tearing. I probably have a tear in the left too, but don't feel like getting imagery because it's pretty well maintained at this point. Doctors suspect mild EDS as well. My labrum...

I connected with this so badly. I recently have developed a crush on someone who lives far away and I haven't met her either, but we have a mutual really close friend by the weirdest coincidence I've ever experienced, despite living thousands of miles away. I'm going to meet her in person soon...

I'm back in therapy temporarily, the symptoms haven't let up and I've been having BPD related breakdowns for days at a time.

No worries @Allie D. I've done the same thing, it's not exactly exciting that someone's experiencing the same thing but it feels like you're a little less alone, I totally get you! I'm glad that even though we're both struggling you were able to find solace in my words!! Thank you!! I'm mostly...

Thank you both. @Allie D. I’m so sorry to hear yours has been through tough times! I’m temporarily transferring to a new one, I’m not going to be living here much longer so it won’t be for long but I’m hoping it’ll be helpful with this transition period in my life.

thank you I feel so bad I'm burdening everyone

I just have to punish myself for being this way somehow. I can't be this way. I'm trying to take away stuff from me like I can't talk to my friends anymore so I stop being this way.

Having another bad day with it. I'm such a loser and I know my friends are sick of my mood swings, and I have to hide those from them or they'll hate me too. I'm not as cool or funny or interesting or talented as them and I just want to cancel my trip and forget it ever happened because I'm a...
