My Life Is On Fire! 🔥

I’m getting desperate! Everything is getting worse and more complicated. I’ve been under way too much stress, for way too long. The anxiety has become unmanageable! If I don’t somehow get outside help, I’m not gonna make it. My nervous system is exhausted, and I’m just spinning my wheels. It’s So Sad! Unless you Say That you’re going to hurt yourself, or have plans of hurting yourself, You’re on your own, Nobody’s Coming To Help, EVER!!! 🤦🏻‍♂️ 😪 I have a few older family members that I can call for help, but they want to know an exact time, how long it will take, and exactly what I want them to do when they get here 🤦🏻‍♂️ All that does is stresses me out more! I need problem solvers and multiple plans of attack! And on top of everything else, I’ve got no kitchen sink, no washing machine, no utility sink, one of the main drain lines are clogged! Hopefully some of the recognize my profile/story I’m not even sure where I’m posting this. 🤦🏻‍♂️🙏 Help!!!

Hey hi sweetie… ❤️

This sounds like way more than just stress" anyone dealing with all of that at once would be overwhelmed. you’ve got ur living situation breaking down, pressure from family, n ur mind running nonstop... it’s honestly a lot. no wonder you feel like you’re spinning out. :(

n that part where it feels like no one helps unless things get really bad… I get why that hits hard. It can feel like you’re stuck in this space where you’re struggling, but not bad enough for ppls to step in, n that’s a really lonely place to be.

Abt ur family, it makes sense that their questions are stressing you out more. When your head is already overloaded, being asked for exact plans can feel impossible. maybe u don’t need to give them all that. u could just tell them straight: I don’t have answers rn, I just need help figuring this out. that’s valid.

You don’t need to solve everything at once, n u don’t need to have a perfect plan before asking for help :( for now, even one person showing up n helping you think would make a difference. 😊

You’re not overreacting.

You’re dealing with too much at the same time. ❤️

Let’s just focus on one next step... who feels easiest to reach out to, even a little? 😊 

N also u posted this in the right place... you're not wrong to post it here, you're good 😊 

Sending you lots of love and happiness ur way 💓 hugs 🤗 

Hi, please if you’re ok with it, what country do you live in? I am very clueless about many things but I can try to dig up resources for you in your country! You said you might lose your home?
