18m I just need someone to talk to I’ve been in my mind for the past 2 months thinking and being scared of the past can anyone please hear me out and maybe offer me some advice

Hello all, I have some availability today to help with anything you need. Happy to take the good with the bad so even if you just want to tell me about your day I'd love to hear it.

I hope you're doing well. If you need that little extra kindness to your day don't hesitate to reach out. 😊

just feels like it's really hard to find support and everyone just wants to be mean

So muchc is going on I don't know who to talk to or how to really process anything. I feel like ive been swallowing it a lot and im embarrassed by these situations i wonder what my friends would think of my family.

23F, I don’t know that I need to vent. More like I need company in general… but I might still need to vent lol

I have discord

okay, so, my friend (f) went out today and later called me asking to 1) sleep over 2) for me to call an uber when she decided tocome back. the last time we talked was 4 hours ago, her phone isn't picking up and i can't reach out to jer by any other means. i'm worried sick, especially because she is not sober and i don't even know where she is. i need someone to distract me from this so i don't end up banging my head on the wall from how nervous i am. it's currently 4am, if by 6 she doesn't at least send a message i'll be going over to her house to talk to her mother, but meanwhile i gotta wait and not go crazy. please, i just... she's probably fine and with her phone discharged, but i have anxiety and can't help but think the worst. i just need someone to distract me

I'm at my wit's end. I'm just so tired. I feel like I'm having a mental breakdown. I don't know what to do. I feel trapped. I don't want to go on any longer, but I don't have any choice.

I'm stuck living with the severe guilt of the one truly bad thing I did in my life back in my early teens (i think around 14).

The guilt I feel and the worry about the people invilved has ruined my life and I just don't know what to do. It has also ruined my family's life because I've been a severely depressed and anxious mess my whole life (I'm now 40).

I haven't been able to function at all and am unable to be in a relationship, I have severe social anxiety and I barely leave the house.

I'm also living now with the fear of seeing my life slip away and the guilt and regret of not being able to enjoy my life with my family.

I try to Google help and all I find are help sites for victims and forums about how terrible people are. So it just validates what I've done as being unforgivable.

I don't know who to see as they'll just judge me for being a bad person and not help/make things worse.

If it's of worth mentioning it I am a very empathetic and kind person in general and it almost makes it worse having everyone say as such as I'm living with this terrible secret that I can't forget or forgive myself for.

Is there help and if so which should I see?

Thanks in advance

Hey everyone, I wanted to let you know that I’ve made the decision to leave reddit permanently. This wasn’t an easy decision, but after careful consideration, I feel it’s the right step for me at this time. I’ve enjoyed our interactions and the community here, and I appreciate all the connections I’ve made. Thank you for being a part of my journey. Take care!

Message me!

I am turning 41 this year, i struggled with my mental health for years since i was a teen. In my late 20s I had a complete mental breakdown and was eventually diagnosed with Asperger's. I spent my 30s unemployed ,then I tried to get out the rut, I joined a job agency last year. I got a part time job last year working in a factory, but had to leave due to stress, i went back to job agency this year and now on waiting list. My employment history is poor to say the least, i kept myself busy in other ways by doing basic computer courses and all that. I left school with an high school education, never went to college,I never learnt a trade or anything,was never really good with my hands. I have no kids or debts thankfully, Is it possible at this stage to turn life around at this stage?.

I’ve been feeling really low lately. I’ve been isolating from my friends, family, and girlfriend, and try to find any excuse to not be around anyone. I constantly feel not good enough for this world or anyone for that matter and maybe that’s what makes me isolate, almost like I’m doing them a favor. I’ve tried to kill myself twice in the past and am thinking about doing it again tonight or sometime soon and hopefully be successful. I think the world would be better off without me and so would the people in my life. I feel like I don’t have anyone to turn to because every time there’s something that I feel is wrong with me or my life I get told I’m being dramatic, that I’m a psychopath, etc. and other people just make it about them. idk maybe I just need someone to truly care or something, someone to talk to that can actually help me get out of this hole I’m in and help me turn things around.

If you are interested in the service, please dm me, im running out of people to ask for advice 😎👍

I think most of our problems can be summarized into 3 categories , relationships, career and mental/physical health .

So, I'd like to offer a lending ear if you need my help for anything . The primary intention of this post is to put myself out there , so people who need my help can reach out. However , I also wrote about my own problems here, so that they can understand me better and they can get an idea of how we are supposed to describe our issues.

However , I can cater to more people with the limited time I have , if you frame your problems in a proper format while writing , so I can understand better.

Example : relationship issue

Crux - convincing parents of the girl I like

Background - never met her in real yet. She lives in southern part of India, me in north. We like each other alot.

Emotional challenge : anxiety due to uncertainty

Things in my control : not much, besides telling her how to talk to her parents , working on myself to improve my profile

Crucial decision : whether to be honest to them or not. I believe I don't have a great profile in terms of education / career, so they may not approve of me for their daughter.

If it's a career dilemma you are going through , do include details like in which field you studied. What's your skillset / talent / area of expertise Which field you have interest in.

While I believe I can be a good career counselor for you , as a disclaimer , do note that It's not like I have much knowledge of the career options and nor am I successful myself , but maybe I can help you self reflect and see things with a different perspective

I had a falling out with a friend three months ago. We started to talk again but I don't know whether we are friends or merely acquintances at the moment. Just an hour ago so, I ran into some evidence(for the lack of a better word) about what she might be thinking about me. There are valid positive points but there are valid negative pointa as well. I'm trying to stay grounded on reality but it is getting quite harder by the minute. Can anyone lend a hand?

it's so weird to be back on this subreddit, it used to help me a lot pre covid (and yes if you do the math i was very young at the time) so i'm glad to see it's still around :v) my doors are always open

In a 9 year relationship with many red flags signaling incompatibility that we chose to ignore and try to make work throughout the years.

But now we can’t deny it any longer- staying with him breaks me up and tears me apart but thinking of being without him makes me want to bear with the pain. I can’t eat and cry all the time.

I wish desperately with all the pieces of my broken heart that he could be the one to love and respect me in the way that’s important to me, but time and time again he shows that he loves himself far more and cannot be compelled to respect my boundaries and consider my feelings. I am in a hell of pain from his actions but still I wish for him and I wish so badly to stay with him till the end. I wish so much that he could be the person I thought I finally could start to trust. I was so happy in my ignorance, and so pained in my knowledge, yet all I want is still him. Staying hurts and leaving hurts and I truly do not know what to do with myself.

Hes with me in school I am scared he took a screenshot but it doesnt have my face i am also in egypt which isnt really helping hes a year older i told him that we should stop and he unadded me after please somebody help ease my mind (also sorry my english isnt the best)

I really want to talk to someone and vent, I can’t see anyone rn

I experienced an assault by a doctor 10 years ago and am planning on telling my parents this week. I'm really scared. I told my sister and cousin but feel guilty for hiding this. I went through the complaints process and to the police by myself. I'm sad I didn't give them the opportunity to support me during that time so I feel bad. Just need some encouraging words.

Hello. 37/M.

I've been here many times before, but usually offering a kind voice. This time I'm on the opposite side of the fence. I was born with Spina Bifida, which has left me using a wheelchair my entire life. It has never defined my identity. I am more than my disability. But for nearly a decade now, my health has been getting worse, my body has been falling apart, and I'm hating getting older more and more each day. For the last several weeks, I've started to feel myself slipping back into depression because it is so hard to juggle taking care of my physical health AND my mental health simultaneously, while trying to survive and just be a functioning human. I'm in a relationship, but I'm lonely. I can't find a primary care physician or a psychologist, and my new psychiatrist office has been failing at getting me my medications. I'm bored and lonely and scatterbrained all the time. Can so eone keep me company in my inbox, please? I have previous posts that talk more about my personality and who I am. Thanks for reading, and have a fucking fantastic day!

I can't let him go; I hold on to him so tightly. In the smallest gestures, I seek hope that everything will work out. I can't accept that he has already made his choice. It hurts me that this relationship is ending because it just has to be that way. We are now in a state of suspension because I lose my mind without him. I don't want to be alone. Besides him, I have no friends or anyone around. He neither pushes me away nor draws me closer, and that's the worst feeling. I can't let him go. I constantly beg for his affection, attention, interest, and love.

I feel like complete shit, I hate myself, the way I look, who I am. I have no one by my side. My life is just work, gym, and then loneliness, crying, despair... I can't cope, I can't sleep, I don't know what to do. They say time heals everything, but every day I'm falling apart more and more... I'm thinking about just leaving

I’ve been having a really hard time recently and could definitely use someone to talk to as I try not to cry while at work

On holiday here, but now I have some free time for the next 2 hours. My DM is open for you :)
