Hi, I’m not really sure how to start this, but I have been feeling very overwhelmed lately and could really use some understanding from real humans.
I lost someone a few months ago, and I don’t think I’ve properly processed it. Since then, everything has felt heavier, especially school. I don’t feel like myself there anymore. I struggle to pay attention in class, my mind feels constantly overloaded, and it’s like I’m just trying to fight through each day rather than actually being present.
I also find school socially draining. I’m not very socially confident, and I often feel like I’m drowning because of it. People disturb me or make things harder, and I don’t know how to speak up for myself even when I’m uncomfortable. I usually stay quiet and keep everything inside of me, which just makes it worse.
Lately, I’ve also been struggling with how I see myself. I feel uncomfortable in my own skin and often feel ugly or not enough. It’s hard watching other people seem to get what they want while I usually don’t, and over time I’ve learned to give up instead of hoping.
I’m trying my best, but I’m really tired. I just want to feel heard, understood, and less alone.
