Really bad shape

...See more pretty Much everything has been going wrong today. Feels like there is someone (the devil?) who is deliberately trying to f** up everyth8 g that happens to me or everything I try to do. I have reached the end of my rope. My mental and physical pain are both way to excruciating now to even try to describe. I cannot take this bs anymore! (This bs has been going on and off roller coaster style for at least a month if not longer). I really do not know what I am going to do (to myself?) if I get any more stress! I have had enough! Really enough!

Lately I have been tending to respond to frustration by looking up ways to damage my health

...See more I know this is not good or healthy and that worries me but something about looking up ways to hurt my health (and even trying some of them) seems to relieve the pressure and frustration I guess by making me think I am getting power somehow or getting back at the frustration by sort of saying if this is how the world is treating me today then I will say f** you to that world and that frustration by hurting myself. I don’t know if that makes sense to anyone but it makes sense to me. I am just about to look up harmful foods on the internet right now. I have just been dealing with so much bullshit and frustration especially recently and I am just sick of it!! If it won’t leave me, then should I try to leave this world?

Confusing reaction to stress

...See more Lately, it seems that every time I would feel stressed or upset about something, my mind would immediately go to a memory/event that I felt really happy about and that I really loved/enjoyed immensely when it happened. Problem is after enjoying the memory, I would get sad or depressed again this time over how much I missed that memory occurring the way it occurred and how it is possible I may never get to experience it like that again. People always say don’t get stuck in your past, it’s dangerous to live in your past. If that’s true, why is it so bad to want those past memories back, to live in them, and to enjoy them they way you did when they first happened? And why does my brain always rush back there, if I am not supposed to get caught up in that? Getting really confused and depressed about this…..

I am not sure what is wrong with me
Depression Support / by warmheartedWest725

...See more I know I have adhd and anxiety. Although I am not a doctor, it really feels to me from a lay perspective that I have depression too. I have ADHD and I can’t even begin to explain how much more difficult that makes everything, personal and professional, during a typical day. Sure, occasionally I do some things right or we’ll but my propensity for saying or doing stupid things and/or making stupid mistakes is far beyond what a normal person would have to deal with. It is so damn impossible to do things right consistently. My awkwardness and absent mindedness even annoys my family. I don’t know what to do other than to admit that it is really causing me to hate myself so much!!!!
