Dump Your Worries Here!

Such a great idea for a thread! Thank you!

For me, Im worried about being old and irrelevant. I often imagine myself being 50 years old, with no useful skills, no friends, being a complete burden to society with nothing to offer.

Its silly I know. And Im going to dump it here.

I'm worried I'll never fully heal from my trauma and that it'll be a constant barrier preventing me from truly loving, trusting, or enjoying being with another person.

@NurturingTurtle20 🥺 I sent my mom a text about some um things and she hasn't read it and I'm worried she'll judge me and tell the rest of my family about it making me the center of their attention and judgement once more and make me feel bad about my interests again and now I can't sleep and I just want to move out so I can finally be myself

@NurturingTurtle20

Lately the thought of ''other are doing much worse than me so why should I deserve any form of help ?'' And like idk I'm supposed to go to therapy for the first time soon but I'm scared that the therapists tells me that I'm faking having anxiety and that im just lying to myself.. is that a crazy thought ?? I just feel like I don't deserve the therapy like there are so many people with far more serious problems and i don't want to waste others time with my tiny tiny issues. I have a lot of friends who are dealing with a lot worse situations and they keep telling me how they disslike people who fake having depression and im so scared that what i turn out to be one of those people.

So we started our relationship in 2009 when I met her in school (university days). We were in the same department and she is a christain while am a muslim.. Fast word to 4 months ago...her parents does know me very well and my family talked to them about getting married...her mum objected to it despite know me, my girl now treats me like a plague, Within 2 or 3 weeks of breaking up with me, she was already into another man..they always talk 'till past 12am. She blocked and unblocked me, gives me breadcrumbs...have only successfully done no contact for 7 days and that made me know much..it made her get far away from me.

I don't have a good job yet and her love kept Me going. I am not lazy and I have applied for tons of openings yet nothing....I have prayed and subjected myself to fasting about this and yet, nothing again..

Life hitting me on all side...thinking about job and the feeling of extreme rejection by the woman I love is killing...no motivation again for every time I try, nothing comes up. I am so tired and depressed...

She left me, ghosted Me for being a Muslim...she is all I know for a decade plus...having serious job issue..,life isn't making sense at 32 years..

@NurturingTurtle20 I'm worried that i will never be able to seek proper help (licensed therapist) i feel like i would benefit a lot from that but my mom doesn't want to, it's very expensive, she also fears i might get medicated, but it's getting harder everyday and i don't know how I'm gonna study and focus on my hobbies while dealing with this feelings, I'm scared i might crumble.

that imma b stuck in my parents house forever and become broke and divorced when i'm older. or that i fail everything and can't go into college and become anything. what if i don't become anything special? what if im stuck being dumb my whole life? i wanna b rich, like a millionare, but what if i find myself in the streets instead. i dont have a goal or anything to pursue.

I'm worried my first ever boyfriend is gonna break up with me one day. I'm 22 and I love him so much but since i have never experienced heartbreak before, I am terrified of it and i feel like i couldn't get over it if it happened. We're both clearly in love and happy right now and i have no reason to think about this, but i can't help it (anxiety...).

I'm constantly worried people judge me for my lack of friends. I only hang out with my sister or my bf and i don't really have a social life besides them. Even when I make friends, I always end up ghosting them because I have extreme social anxiety and I just don't ever feel like seeing anyone anyway. I'm terrified that people think i'm a loser. I've been worrying about this since I was like 15...I don't even talk to my bf about this because i'm ashamed to tell him I don't really have friends. I had a phase where I literally had zero friends besides my sister and it was honestly the worst years of my life.

I'm worried I won't ever be truly happy. I have been depressed since I was 14 and it has definitely gotten better (antidepressants help), but I feel like I don't have a goal in life/ i don't ever wanna do anything besides sleeping. I graduate uni in 5 months and just the thought of having a career makes me sick. Even though I enjoy my field of studies, I just hate work and I get so depressed when I have a routine. I'm so terrified I'm gonna have to live the rest of my life like this...Just work work work and you can't really enjoy the week-end because you're too exhausted. But everyone has to live like this, so I guess I can't really complain. Also, I've always desesperately wanted children, but for the past few months I have absolutely no interest in having a child and I'm absolutely terrified to be pregnant even though I take precautions. I feel like my life would be over if it happened. I don't know, my life feels so meaningless and boring. Of course my boyfriend brings me joy, but that's about it. As soon as I leave him and come home, it's back to anxiety and stress because of work and uni and just ...my stupid life. Being single for so long, I really thought having a bf would solve all my problems, but absolutely not.
