Things really can get better just don’t give up!
So depressed, no money, sick, unable to work.. wish I had my own place.
The fall leaves, the snow falling, smell of spring and laughter of summer are so healing
Borderline personality disorder will not make everyday hell. I will work on regulating my emotions & am thankful for DBT therapy being available for us.

One month ago my big brother killed himself. I hope I can find the strength to be whole again and for the world to start making sense again. Right now I feel so lost.

Hi! I have anxiety caused from a brain injury I suffered 27 years ago. Normal for me is not normal, apparently. I live in constant circles because my memory abilities were damaged. I’m like someone with Alzheimers without the disease.
My tips that work are: Drink
Water (it improves energy); SUNLIGHT and FRESH AIR help relieve some panic attacks; leave BIG notes in BLATANT places for reminders; brush aside the insults of others because they don’t know what I am dealing with inside; put things in perspective – I could have died from my injuries – being poor and ostracized can be overcome; MUSIC/PHOTOS/SCENTS/FOOD aid in memory recall for brief moments.
If you have tips on memory issues, please share!
Practice mindfulness! Ex: Find 5 things you see, 4 things you can feel, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, 1 thing you can taste.

I have suffered from depression and anxiety for years, I went through tons of bad relationships, got into fights with people over the most stupidest things, dealt with a bad few years as a kid growing up suffering from the things i’ve witnessed as a kid, always getting blamed and yelled at for things I wouldn’t do. Then as I got a bit older and those things started going out of my head I started realizing I can be a better person. I graduated from high school this year… I was in college for a few weeks doing a course that I was so happy about doing until one day just to much came upon me and I couldn’t handle it.. had to quit because I couldn’t handle all the stress and work that was piling up on me so I needed a break. For along while I was trying to figure me out trying to see what was best for me and where I needed to be… From fighting these thoughts in my brain was hard but for the last 4 years I been fighting the battles that i go through and still do to this very day.. Thought about wanting a little one coming into my life already.. when I realized I’m to stressed out and don’t know if i could handle taking on a big responsibility like that so i decided not too.. but going through this depression, anxiety and stress I have I just can’t do it! I decided right now I need to do me and figure out what is the best decisions and choices for myself.. and see what the future has in store for me! Just want to leave my past in the past and finally move on to better things!
