When will "Everything get better"?
When you decide to change and ask for help. Don't expect things to get better if you sit and watch. Always ask for help and a solution because you are not alone. We are the product of our beliefs and actions.
"When you decide to change and ask for help. "
I am 3 years into therapy including 3 different medications to keep me from being a danger.
There is no end in sight.
The big question is when to give up.
What do you mean dear.
@Theworstofthemalll
I have been in therepy for so long and with so little results. I figure at my age i have at best 20 years. Do i want to live a life that is constant struggle that will only get more difficult as a age.
Most of the gains we have made is because of my meds, wich in themselfs have thier own downside. They give me tremmors. Making me less able to do things myself.
I don't see a bright side, no light at the end of the tunnel.
I'll be honest with you: i will not be the classical "don't worry be happy" who never lived a bad situation bad has fun going around telling others to feel better: i actually have a really bad past of self harming and suicidal actions, not counting mental disorders, because yes i also have mental disorders. And still, to those days, i am suffering a lot, you can also tell from my bio, i quitted being a listener, because i am having a lot of problems, i am in really dark times right now. At this point dear, i am really sorry to hear that you aren't getting better despite being in therapy for decades. I somehow understand you, would you believe me if i told you that my last therapist refused to help me? I get you, and i didn't want to alterate your feelings with my obvious words. I can't really suggest you what to do, after all i am just a 16 years old boy who is fighting his problems with nails and teeth everyday. Stay safe, and i hope that one day you will finally feel better ❤

Hey there, we meet again! I am hearing how much time you've invested in feeling your best. It can be so discouraging when we are actively figuring out what our options are and utilizing what is available to us and yet still, we haven't found comfort or relief that we're headed in a more positive direction. ♥︎ Recovery is truly lifelong and will never be a linear process- some days will be easier to manage than others, some will be much more challenging. It does take quite some time to find that space in life where we realize things just may be okay- for some of us, it may take more time and resources than others, and while I wish it weren't so... it's completely natural and you're not in this alone. I have been there too, and still am. Keep reaching out for support and find meaning in life where you're able- there's no moment too small. Thank you for being here.
Good. It's good you feel better now.

Congratulations! I hope you've enjoyed your first week! Being a member gives you an insight as a Listener you wouldn't have otherwise! You'll make a difference to people by being there for them in the way you were supported by others. :) <3

So true, things do get better, it can just take some times sometimes :)

That's how I began all these years ago, too! 🥹 Happy to have you here, and hope we cross paths again. ♥︎ Welcome to the Listener side of 7C!
