I don't know what to do anymore

I think I need help....

I no longer know what I'm doing and I don't know what I can do but I need to do something. I'm either feeling completely numb or I want to cry and continue crying until I drowned myself in tears but I can't. My bestfriend is going through a lot and I just feel powerless when I can't help (which is all the time) and she is the only person I feel comfortable talking to (usually) but lately I just feel I can't; that I can't burden her with my issues because of what she is dealing with but I really really need to talk to someone because I'm being eaten alive. So then I don't know what to do. What can I do?

This is really just me venting how I feel and what I'm thinking without feeling like I'm burdening people...it kinda helps

It's normal to feel like that at some point of our lives. I am sure each one goes through such situations sometimes when we r vulnerable and want to just vent out.I am sure crying is not the sign of weakness. After venting out your tears you get rid of sorrowful state of mind and prepare yourself to b little more stronger

I'm sorry you're feeling this way. you seem like a very considerate person and quite a great friend. I just hope you'd let yourself have some of that compassion. friendship is a two way street. ask them if they can listen to you before writing that support off. and please remember you can reach out to the community here! a lot of kind people around

I’m sorry you are feeling like this. It’s normal to feel like sometimes our problems are too much for people who support/care about us but often it’s just our minds playing tricks on us.  We need people and community. Needing help during difficult times does not make you too much or a burden.  It’s great that you reached out to talk about how you feel because it’s really important to not keep those feelings inside. I wish you the absolute best, and I hope you feel better ❤️‍🩹

@Hyperion8400

I'm so sorry you are feeling this way. Life is not perfect and we all have situations we're all facing. Also sorry that your friend you confined in is also going through her own challenge and you really want to talk. You can search for a listener on 7cups.com and he will be able to listen to you and support you.

@Hyperion8400 hi, im so sorry to hear this. feeling numb and drowning in tears - both seem exhausting and i can understand how that back and forth can feel. it is really sweet of you to care so much about your best friend and want to help her, have you asked or spoken to her about how you are feeling? either way i am really glad you decided to reach out and i hope talking to someone on here helps you 💗
