Member seeking someone who is willing to listen to rants, LGBTQ+ and anxiety

...See more I thought that I should post here and look for the listeners that could help me as it's quite hard to find a good listener on Browse Listeners and I end up getting even more down or upset after the chats with random listeners. I don't know if I need much or less, so I will try to list it up for you, who am I and what do I expect from a listener. So, first of all, I am a young woman, 19 years old, studying in a university. Everything in my life seems to be quite good but I am not feeling good. I am seeing a therapist and psychiatrist, I think I have anxiety but I haven't been diagnosed. There are also times when I feel pretty down and worthless and it's usually late night when my friends and my support system is sleeping so it's not helping either. As you could see, I overthink things a lot, I am perfectionist, I am also very self-critise and I am that kind of person that it's hard to communicate with because I am going to deny any comments and compliments that are being said to me as I don't think it's true, I see myself as pretty shitty person that do not deserve love and attention. Oh... Actually, attention is another problem of mine My psychiatrist said that I have symptoms of hystionic disorder what is in short terms is attention need, unhealthy one. But it's only symptoms, not disorder right now. But yeah, I need a lot of attention and I am not able to get it so it makes me feel down but at the same time I don't want to ask for attention as I feel I don't deserve it. So that's about me, I told you, I am hard person to understand and it's alright if no one is interested or able to support me, I haved to try! But if you think you could support me, these are the things that I expect and need from a listener: 1. Being open minded and LGBT friendly as I am part of LGBT. 2. Being patient with me and not trying to change me because I am usually pretty stubborn 3. Someone to listen to my rants when everything goes wrong 4. Someone to help me when I have anxiety attacks that don't let me to sleep 5. Someone that could talk to me at least once per week

...See more Hello everyone, I was doubting a lot but I think I need to get support. I am not able to get support from the therapist at the moment so I though that this program would work for me. I am 18 years old girl, mostly struggling with same-sex crush that I have for almost two year now, being asexual, relationships with friends (I feel like I am disturbing them and I don't want to, also I feel outsider in my age group). I also feel very lonely usually, I am dealing with anxiety, panick, overthinking. And my dad is really homophobic and he is crazy about clear so he always shouts and me and stuff. It's hard to deal with everything at once and I am feeling pretty down for awhile now, I really need person who could talk to me. Any listener who would be comfortable with me (I can be needy somtimes, and annoying)
