So basically anxiety and depression works like dominos or the way a hurricane builds it’s like a perfect storm formation sort of thing
but yeah so with anxiety it’s like dominos happening once one thought starts
so a negative thought spawned from my depression
I was literally like crying myself to sleep every night and just having a bout of depression the usual hopelessness despair and suicidality mixed in with crying anger and fatigue
and then I just thought to myself how I felt very fragile as a result of ptsd and how I used to be a really strong person and had it all together like my gf who broke up with me recently said that “you’re a really strong person” and I’m like nah. But yeah that stuck in my head and my depression was like u ain’t strong bitch you’re all torn up from ptsd and shit and now you’re like weak from it and can’t fight jack shit anymore
and I’m ur right I can’t handle jack shit anymore and it’s tough and sad feeling like a constant nervous wreck and like you’re just coming to pieces it’s the sensation of falling apart like weak links or a doll that has no good seems Anymore that feels so terrifying because I can’t fight anymore against the shit I used to be able o handle like by putting walls up and shit like
shit affects men more now emotionally than ever before and it really really affects me
and then it just made me really overwhelmed I guess about everything and that like was playing in the back of my head through out the day which is the norm with a bad mental health day argh depression so I’m used to it and didn’t try do muc about it (When ur in one of those states ur not likely to believe that trying will do anything anyways so u likely won’t)
and it just goes and goes on and on in the back of my head as I go about my day
that endless domino thing
and if forks off and then forks off again and again until it’s just infinite and intertwining mess of shit just cascading into hell
and there’s clashing and arguments internally and like a lot is going on so
that’s part of why I would cry at night and that sadness just like got to me while I was listening to music I guess I had the final thought process that put me over the edge and turned on that switch
where suddenly it’s like I’m in upside world and nothing feels the same and everything is very very weird and terrifying
and I can’t turn it off and I’m oanicking
so yeah
that’s the fun of being in mental Hell
and why anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications in one pill, exist
they go hand in hand very often and that has to do with a lot of reasons which is very complicated blah blah blah
long story short I need therapy as that’s the main solution along with other things but yeah writing does help me (talking bout shit and venting) so that’s why I’m doing it
otherwise I have to sit here going insane
and I just wanna get back to feelin normal ASAP so that’s what it’s all about
writing does help funny enough. Just shuts it all down. The anxiety I was dealing with kinda went away so that’s good. It gives me a sense of control or peace or catharsis comfort I have no idea
maybe I’m just reminding myself it’s literally gonna be ok?
anxiety doesn’t want you to think that it won’t let you but if you interrupt the process and do this writing instead you’re able to consciously like shift your thinking and have mental clearing for two seconds from the bull shit like oh yeah everything is gonna be fine
It works
