Ok good
Talk about anything!
TAM! I WAS WORRIED YOU'D LEFT THANK GOD!
INTERNET SUCKS HERE!
nah dude, I was planning on it because I really didn't want anyone to see the depressed ugly side of me but I think I'll stay for now (hopefully) but thanks for your worry, makes me feel good that someone cares~
We all have depressed, ugly sides, and hiding that doesn't help. Let it out… But let it out somewhere that's appropriate…
I know that I should but it just feels so unnatural for someone to hear me and help me, it's kinda been a while since I've talked to anyone about this really
Tam do you have a therapist in your area you can go see? Therapy really isn't as bad as it seems once you get the right therapist for you. Trust me, I know.
Listen to Lee!
As much as I'd like to I don't think my mom would be cool with that, I appreciate the concern but trust me when I say that I've tried
Oh.
Can we slow down the convo. Internet here sucks.
I've talked to Octane about this that my mom isn't the simplest person out there and she actually has a really complicated personality, my dudes
Oof, yeah. Parents can be that way, especially if their child admits that there is something wrong. It took me until last year to realize it wasn't normal to hyperventilate when you cry and be super paranoid, which led me to find out about a little thing known as an anxiety disorder.
It was a big thing to explain to my parents and to let them know that I need help. However, turns out my dad also has an anxiety disorder, but instead of crying he'd just get really, really irrationally angry.
I know I have more accepting parents than others, and I wish I could just adopt you all and make it easier, but I can't. All I can say is it takes time, energy, and lots of patience when trying to talk with your parents about it. Keep bringing it up at right times, state facts and symptoms when you can, maybe even manage to get them to look it up and read about it.
That's right. And Tam, I'll be your therapist. I'm actually better than most of these jackasses running around with degrees according to a few friends!
Well Shuri you're definitely better than my first therapist. She wouldn't give me any medication and relied solely on Mindfulness and meditation, of which I figured out rather quickly didn't work very well for me. When I told her this, she still refused to change anything she did.
That sucks. Have you tried falling asleep to subliminal messages? It might help!
Also. I won't be able to help many of you today. Internet is balls.

I find soft classical/instrumental music helps me, as well as just mindless noise on low. Suliminal messages just have too much rest between noises that it scares me awake.
Oh. I see!

thanks, Shuri I'd appreciate that and yea I understand that maybe getting my mom to look it up would be nice but the thing is she already knows about it but just blames me for having it because I don't "pray" or I got demons. Some shit like that lol sometimes it just makes me laugh even though I feel bad about it
That happens a lot. You'd be surprised how many people talk to me, and tell me that their parents religion just makes it worse, or that their parents think they need to accept Jesus or something, I'm not hating on faith or anyting but that's taking it a little too far. I'm sure your mom is a pretty nice person, but that's just sucky honestly. I'm sure she'll wear down if you keep at it.
Tru she's really great and yeah you're right, sometimes I just wish she would understand but until then I'll just keep doin' what I do lmao
Just wear her down. I wish I could lend you some of my authority.
Screeeech.

You could have a broken hand and two shank wounds like me…
It can be worse…
For someone who has multiple adtions over the course of this week, half which are speeches and singing huge ass things. And for someone who has to give a huge speech in front of half my school, for a grade. Yeah, it could be worse. But, let me be a little bitch and complain. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Screeeech.

I'm sorry bb, I know the feeling. It fucking sucks when you can't communicate. Makes me feel like a helpless child and I hate it.
Nice…
Y'know I feel it. I'm in a huge city without a car. I've been walking on my injured knee and grabbing stuff with my fucked up hands the whole trip while freezing my ass off. I've had to carry Dante home twice, and carry my cane in my teeth, and check the internet/be on my phone when there is internet for a while now… All at once!!!
Screeeech.

You could always use a knocking system for basic communication!

I know ASL enough to get by, but literally no one else around here knows ASL as well.
Yup. Figures.
