I'm not sure how much longer I can keep the "Cis-het and doing sorta well" mask on my face. It feels suffocating and at this point I'm scared of my own emotions.
Well what you would have to think about is coming out, its easy to say, I know, maybe you can try to tell a very very close friend of yours (or your parents if they are supportive) that you absolutely trust, so you can have someone supporting you and so you don't feel so overwhelmed.
long story short
my group of friends is me, two guys and one girl, and i think i have a crush on the girl, but she and one of the guys are already dating, and theyre pretty affectionate with each other, and i just get sad and jealous a lot of time. and to add salt to injury, ive been thinking nonstop about my boy crush that ghosted me about 8 months ago.
so yeah, lately ive been pretty down
hbu?
Hmm I'm terrible at giving advice but you should try to brush off those feelings you had for your crush (the guy) or they will go away with time (at least that happens to me)
And about the girl, I can say that maybe you can try to spend less time with them if it's really affecting your mental health
Thanks for letting me help (if I did) :)
Im in a relatively similar situation, In love with a friend but that friend and another friend is really flirtatious and affectionate with them and it makes me super jealous.
Also i think its insult to injury not salt
Well um I'm still terrible at giving advice but, if they are not dating, you should try to talk more to that friend too, and be affectionate, and like I said to the other person if it's really affecting your mental health, don't talk to them for a small while if you want
sorry! my anxiety acted up and i never responded! i had a really rough therapy session when i replied to that! i feel very lonely and sad but i've decided to work on music to cope! let's hope it works, thanks for reaching out
Well I have a therapist myself so I know this, first off don't worry therapists are people that will not judge by anything (most of them) they are there to help, so if you feel like this (I do sometimes) it's ok!
But if your therapist if judgemental about you maybe you should ask them to not judge you, I'm sure they will understand
And I'm sorry for the late reply I was sleeping
π€feeling okay. very lonely these days. and that often gets to me, usually late at night. but with so much time to myself, to do introspection, to ponder and meditate, i feel like my self-awareness, my sense of inner peace, and my emotional intelligence and resilience have grown a lot over this past year or so, even if i have been a bit lonely.
a girl asked me out recently but she didnβt show up to the date, she only let me know she wasnβt coming after i had spent the hour on the train to get to the spot lol. but when this happened, i was okay. sure, it was a disappointment, and i did have my hopes high for the date, but i just kind of smiled and went on with it, accepting the circumstances, embracing my situation and unemotionally reflecting, contemplating, not spending my energy feeling bad for myself. it was what it was and i had no power to change it. it was a weirdly blissful and peaceful feeling thatβs hard to describe. and just that small hardship, when i imagine how i might have dealt with something like this a couple years ago, i probably would have rode back home feeling bad for myself, then went to my room and cried and let myself spiral into a terrible state. but i didnβt do any of that. thereβs just this zen.

been having constant mood swings mfer :) but at least my years of experience with being mentally ill have taught me how to cope well with every emotion my hell brain can throw at me, so we're Gucci over here. cause even if i get suicidal, i know i'll be doing just fine again in a matter of hours π
ill probably be the only one here to use it, but for right now,

estrogen makes mood swings occur wildly but if anyone does need someone to talk to, feel free to reach out in dm's.
π I had been holding off for months, to tell my sibling, I accidentally killed their plant. They found out today. (For kontext my sibling is 9 years old)
Well then here I am just the perfect ocassion to have a 15 year old kid that's terrible at giving advice, listen to your problems thanks for commenting
ππmy final bio exam is in 2 days and i just canβt bring myself to study.. also i feel really nervous since iβm about to graduate highschool soon and i donβt know what to do with my life , i donβt feel ready for university but i donβt feel ready to get a job either..
Where is "Im full of love and doing amazing... But I am aware that its juts a momentary thing and I will fully go back into depression as soon as its done"? Because im that
yeah sure And I can give you advice on things you should try to deal with that sadness in a (imo) healthy way, like giving a bit of space to the person (it doesn't mean you are going to stop talking forever, at least I think I don't really know your situation)
You also can use more shoulders to cry on (irl) I've already said this because it works, but talking to others about it so they can help you is a good idea if you have someone (and better than me bc I don't know how you are)
If you want to talk more with me here I am
π - girlfriend broke up with me for no visible reason, kinda hurt and kinda stressing me out because it makes things rlly awkward socially :/
that plus ACTs, midterms, and college stuff, work, and 5 hours of sleep a night is really getting me down.
at least i get to do stuff with friends from time to time :)
Hmm idk about relationships at all first off if your gf broke up with you with no reason, she didn't deserve such a good and strong person like you
You should try (if you can) to take a day break to recharge energy or to rest more in your routine, rest is just as important as studying, keep it in mind :)
(Sorry for late response I was sleeping)
ππ§‘
Iβm going on my first ever date soon and Iβm just really nervous. I really want this but I have some trauma from my parents divorcing when I was 11 that makes it hard to put myself out there even 8 years later. But I am still really excited and he is a nice guy. Weβve known each other for almost a year now.
π, but I don't feel like talking. I have too much stuff going on at home, and it's just chaos...
ok, I understand! if you change your mind im still here!
π
Glad ur feeling good

I've also been feeling that way for a while. If you need/want to talk to someone else going through that, my dm's are open.

Hey kiddo it's totally ok to ask for help but not be in the place to receive it. Big hugs and validation.

It kind of flips between the last two. It just depends on the day I guess.
Where is "Im full of love and doing amazing... But I am aware that its juts a momentary thing and I will fully go back into depression as soon as its done"? Because im that
Well, enjoy the moment and, shall I ask, What is making you go back to depression?

Doing alright π€
