my feet and hands were cold and shaking and also felt like having pins and needles
my breathing became shallow and it became hard to take in deep breathes
i am not alright, but, oh well
it's just life
my parents noticed the scars on my wrist
i hate this, i dont want them to know
im not going to do anything for a while
i can't fall asleep, im scared everyones is just going to leave and im going to die alone
i want to isolate myself from everyone, i hate this
im thinking of leaving this server, i don't really find a point
hey don't worry everyone won't leave for no reason. I'm here for you. What makes you think you're gonna die alone? There's nothing wrong with being afraid of things but sometimes it's really all in your head
because i don't talk to anyone about my fucking probelms, and one day out of the blue im just going to end up kms
well that's what this server is for, what problems are you having right now?
idk, my mind is a mess, i can't sleep, i have anxiety over the littlest things in life
what small things are making you so anxious
you could try playing some peaceful relaxing music to keep your mind off
it's fine to be anxious over small things
anything, something as simple as not being prepared for school the next day, a joke, things like that
Well sometimes small things like jokes really aren't that deep, it's really all in your head. Realize that everybody has things going on in their lives, they won't remember small things you say to them like jokes
As for school maybe try to make it a habit to prepare the day before?
See sometimes we get so caught up in our thoughts and our thoughts turn into emotions and trigger our nervous systems and then we feel like we’re going to die. But the thing is you are NOT your thoughts.
Imagine a stranger tells you what your thoughts tell you. Why would you trust a random stranger telling you things?
Sometimes that's
exactly what your thoughts are, completely random small things that really don't matter.
Find a way to calm yourself down, whether it's listening to music or meditating, just let your mind be at rest distract yourself
Is there anything that makes you sleepy
like just watching a show or scrolling through tiktok
Or boring music
You need to distract your thoughts
not really
when im panicked and my thoughts are all over i never really consider doing anything like that
You should try and see if it helps.
Take deep breaths when your panicking and try to just lie down somewhere. if you can't distract yourself slowly assess what's making you so anxious and see whether it's really worth being so worried about it
i just end up crying myself to sleep
well crying is a way of emitting out your emotions but if it's happening all the time then these issues need to be fixed
is it really these small things that make you anxious or is there anything deeper?
there is, well, i've gotten used to listening to other peoples issues and helping them out that i could figure it oout
i took care of myself
and by that what i mean is, my parents were always bsy with work
i never talked to them about my feelings or anything as a kid, and the only thing they cared
was school
so i tried my best to become good, i am, but now in a toxic way
where i can't falter and get bad grades
im an exceptional student but not because i want to be, because i have to
things just got worse, im scared of doing anything wrong, sayig something wrong to friends or ppl close
I understand that helping others out is important but you are also important. Don't force yourself to always help others if you yourself aren't doing to well. Just tell them you arent feeling to well yourself.
Sounds like when you were young you kept your problems to yourself and it's been building up. Its definitely better to tell them to somebody and let it all out.
You shouldn't be scared of saying or doing wrong,because ppl close to you and friends wouldn't mind. Your a human, this is your first time living. Your bound to make a mistake, it's what you do after the mistake that matters. Your friends won't leave you because of a mistake you made, true friends would forgive you and move on especially if it's a small thing. If your loved ones truly care for you they won't leave you over a mistake you make
maybe, but idk what to do, what if they do
it's my first time living, so is theirs i dont want to hurt them by a mistake i made
also, i just wanna thank you for reaching out
Hey -- I've been in a similar situation when I was younger. I'd get punished (not physically or anything like that) if I got lower than a certain grade (A).
Trust me when I say it does get better after high school (well, during senior year of high school after the stress of college applications). I also realized that, at least for me, the only way I truly learn is by focusing more on having fun/learning in that class rather than caring too much about grades.
(not sure if you're in hs, college, etc., I'm assuming hs since you're with your parents?)
well, i've never been interested in anything science related but im still forced to do it cause my parents want me too
(yep im just a freshman
Ah... yeah, I was awful at science. Straight-up memorization was the only thing that got me through that
freshman year is rough for many people
Also, your high school grades won't matter when you start working
but for college applications it does
which i why im doing so much things
whether it's clubs, competitions, courses whatever i can get my hands on
i see, i mean im not bad at it, i just dont like it
yeah, it does for college apps, but from my experience freshman year matters the least in terms of grades since colleges tend to be understanding about the transition from middle -> high school
even if you do poorly in freshman year, as long as you show an upwards trend, it'd probably be fine
Makes sense; I went through the same
im sorry that happened to you too
that's good -- that you're not bad at it!
It's alright, I've moved past it.
For me, things really did look up after hs! So as long as you make it through to senior year of hs, it'll be a lot more relaxing--at least in terms of grades
i just don't know, im getting burnt out and i cant focus on school
I really do advocate taking a day off; it helps
even a couple hours off if you can't afford a day
not thinking about assignments, work, etc.
I know that it feels like a waste of time to do that, but if doing that means that you'd be able to focus on your work, it's worth it
mhm, thank you so much for all your help
it was nice having someone listen
I don't think there's a purpose in living anymore.
Why not?
someone close to me is going through a tough time
i'm going to be there for them, even if they hurt me as hurt ppl, im going to stay
maybe im not mentally okay to be there for them, it could harm me too, but im going to stay
and help
as much as i can
That's honorable of you, but if they do hurt you/it gets too much, you should take a break from doing that
i feel horrible
the person im trying to help
they've sh b4
i wish i could've been there
they regret telling me about it now
i never knew about anything
they always struggle alone, never telling anyone anything
i want them to open up to me
I'm glad that they did
i think i have sleeping issues...
i started to fall asleep sometime after 5am
i woke up at 6 for school
im tired, alot
i cried myself to sleep yesterday, idk why it ust felt like my heart was shattered and each piece was impaling me
it became harder to take deep breaths, my chest felt almost as if there was something blocking me from breathing
oh well, i went to school anyway
im tired.
on the 2nd day of school, i got my exam schedule
i have so many essays
theres so many competitions coming up
its a friends birthday party tmrw, im thinking abt what to buy
i just wanna crawl into bed, cry and pass out for 10 hrs
what's bothering you for you to feel like this?
hey it's alright do things one by one. Yeah exam periods coming up but you can get through it
You don't have to buy anything to expensive for your friend either don't beat yourself over these things. Your not doing anything wrong or anything
Sounds like you're overwhelmed with everything
im so scared.
If he doesn't get better, I'd say hell doesn't sound bad
don't lose hope, things will be better.
my sibling got angry at me for no fucking reason, every being in me wants to break something and just cry for not doing anything right
but instead im just blasting music.
i relate to you on that, siblings are tough
but things r gonna get better just ignore them
its rly hard tho yeah
people next to me, those i see everyday, noticed the scars on my wrist
my anxiety has been ever growing, something that i did again to appear now i wish would just disappear
You don’t have to rush to not showing to showing. There’s arm sleeves, arm cuffs, makeup, even those fishnet gloves! The important things is that you’re getting better everyday cause you got up that day. Your scars aren’t something to be ashamed of cause they show you got this far. And that’s badass. People are going to think things, that’s just human nature.
Idk anymore
My friends, only ones, I've known them since I was a kid
And all 3 of us do face mental issues and deal with sh, recently we all opened up to each other
Things were good until it was all there was, jokes abt the urge to sh, and it feels like everyone is competing to see who has the most trauma and sh the most
Its toxic ik, they were the only ppl I could talk to and now I can't
Why can’t you?
Humor can be a decent coping mechanism but it has to be taken lightly
ofc i do, always have until every part of your conversation revolves just around it
i don't feel comfortable anymore, if i do, someone brings up their experience which is valid and i want to help them but i end up getting talked over and it just ends up being comparing our issues
Sometimes you just can’t help them especially if you feel like you aren’t even being heard. These experiences aren’t a competition. It seems like you’re not being in a conversation just a venting session. Do your friends have anyone else they can talk to that might help?
i don't think so
i have ended up utterly alone
lmao i think i've lost it
i dont even care abt shit anymore
i just want to end everything
don't do it's not worth it
It's a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
If you don't feel. comfortable and feel talked over, the comparison of problems is definitely getting toxic so you should not involve yourself too much in it
You may feel like that now but nothing is permanent You can find new and better friends You can find things you enjoy in life You can find someone for you You just have to be there It gets better
oh well
i didn't end up dying yesterday
school was bleh but atleast i finished reading my book
thank you, i appreciate it
it's not just friends, there's a lot happening
but thank you
That's good!
Maybe, just maybe I'm easy to love, but hard to keep loving
Oh :/
I get you
I get easily in love with people
But when I meet then I get so comfortable that there just with me
And I might do soemthing not nice to them
And they just leave me :/
And it does suck
But that should
Let you done uk
You try your best
You can do it
man, i can relate but i don't even mess up
thank you, it goes for you too, you're fun to love <33
Yeah
i've been better, i don't know why and even though there are a lot of things overwhelming me
im optimistic i don't know how long this will last but im glad
and also, im grateful to all the people that reached, all of your words have lifted up my spirits and wherever u are in the world, i love you :)
I'm glad to hear that you're feeling better!
i am so freaking stressed also, i think i have a migraine coming but idk

i am so freaking tireeeeed i dont even know how im going to complete al of this T-T
i think im too much sometimes.
i have so much shit to do
but im sitting here
scrolling
i can't get up
idk why
hey. i found this and let me say something, you dont speak too much. there is no such thing as "speaking too much" its okay to rant and let out everything you feel.
you got this. i believe in you 
That's very sweet of you, thank you
this week, i tried going to a counsellor; i went there on sunday
i was supposed to meet them again on monday but they were busy so we rescheduled to today, it didn't happen
i give up; even when im trying to get help it feels like every small thing is stopping me from doing so
I don't really know anymore
I mean it's a school counsellor but I had a lil hope
School counselors are supposed to be there for you for problems (or even just a chat). They're not doing their job if they just don't show up.
It's great that you reached out to someone rl, at the least
Thank you :)
I mean they're really busy, they're also a psych tr so..
still not an excuse to miss an appointment
Idk I just left a note saying we were supposed to have a session and I'll talk to her later
but that could mean that they forgot to show up
that's good!
hopefully she responds to you
Mhmm
I was supposed to be there during the first class of the day
It upsets me a little but I just don't know
so...i talked to the counselor
well, yesterday i was just exhausted and mentally broken so i had a lil episode
i ran to the counselors office and im glad, she helped me out
we exchanged nos so that we could easily book a sesh
👀 glad to know that the counselor was able to help you!!
I am, thank you!
that's good to hear, have a good day/hope u had a good one
i feel hopeless
im tired
i dont have the energy for anything
i just want to crawl up in bed and just sit there
im playing music incredibly loud instead of crying
i have exams from sunday, i havent studied anything
i know a hug wont help but i feel like you need it
thats so sweet, thank you <3
no
stay strong
dont be afraid
thank u, but its hard
cramming for tests tmrw 😭 i just finished bio, i have chem left
Good luck!
thank you :)
it's funny
how after opening up
instead of being comforted
im the one comforting them cause my pain is theirs to share and it hurts
that is very sweet, but i just wanted help
i've lost most of my hope
i think im gonna delete this page and just help others
im just tired
Deleting this page is up to you; just be careful to not burn out helping others and to turn to help if you need it
thank you for helping me out always
