I'm having the same feeling as you. But sadly ,there're no lake or pool around here,so I can't sink... Anyway,I think It'd be better if we talk together. Can we ?

I don't know what to do. It's consuming me and I want it to stop. It's all around me and I'm trapped. I feel like I'm drowning every day.
Dear@solitaryshadow, I am so sorry you're experiencing these overwhelming emotions. I know it feels like drowning, and like being stuck in a terrible place and you can't get out. And you just want the pain to stop. I hope you'll consider requesting a 1-to-1 chat with an individual listener. It isn't good to be alone when you're feeling this way.
Or call a friend. Reach out to someone. Consider seeing a professional therapist or physician to get some additional care.Life doesn't have to be this way. It's possible to feel better . . . alotbetter. My heart goes out to you.
