@renovatedkitchen Okay, and then what do I do?
-
...This is going to sound like a stupid question considering I've been on the site for a while, but how do you PM someone? DX
-
@cajunbrony23 Well, it's not the only option. But the other ways are arduous and long. There's no easy fix. It took me years to sort of auto-correct my depression despite the help from my therapist. I don't know man... I want to help you, but I don't know how. You can make it through. I know you can. It's a matter of how. And the fixes besides what I mentioned all take a long process to take effect. ;_;
-
@cajunbrony23 ... Can I venture to guess that it's either due to insurance problems, the stigma that comes with being labelled as "mentally ill," or because you have parents/spouse that won't support you or help you with it?
-
@cajunbrony23 Yes, that's true. I know because I'm diagnosed and being treated too. But you have to persevere. Think of how crushed the people who love you would feel if you weren't there or if you felt like dying and shriveling away to nothing. Dude, you might not make it out of depression completely, but you can come a hell of a long way. You can be at least marginally happy. Trust me.
-
@techdisk42 Yeah, he definitely has the classic symptoms of depression. That's why I think therapy might do him good. Admitting you have a problem is half the battle. Once you work to solve it, it's liberating.
-
@cajunbrony23 It doesn't have to be who you are though. Have you ever gone to a therapist? Because therapy has helped me get over that fear of criticism. And it's not a bad thing to be sensitive. No one hates you for it. But, the degree to which you fear that criticism is pretty severe. I mean, I would say somehow getting therapy for it would help, but that's only my opinion. Whatever helps you the most.
-
@cajunbrony23 Dude, this is coming from a person who is highly impatient, but you need to be more patient. Life is a hell of a mess. We all know that life is excruciating most of the time. But you really do have to develop some inner fortitude. This is coming from someone who knows how you feel. It sucks, but I know you're going to make it through this. You just need to take everything a day at a time and just tell yourself, even if it feels wrong, that you're a good person. It may seem false, but eventually you'll realize that you really are worth something. Because you are. You truly are.
-
@cajunbrony23 Don't consider "not living." I've been in that place and just think about it this way: it's irreversible. You don't get another chance for redemption if you go over that edge. Just because one person dislikes you doesn't mean that no one will like you. There are people out there who will like you for who you are. It may seem like a vicious cycle, but you're bound to find a way out someday.
-
@nlghtmaremoon O_O Wow. That's pretty amazing.
-
@nlghtmaremoon Well, I live in the Western part of NY. Like right within 15 minutes of Niagara Falls. So, it's still quite a trip for me. I couldn't go this year because I lack funds and transportation. :(
-
@thatonepony Well, I live in NY, but I'll see. I might be able to find it.
-
Hmmm, since there's a bit of talk about alcohol going on, let me air this question out there... Has anyone tried Dos Equis? I've been thinking of trying it, but I'm not sure how strong of a beer it is.
-
Finally done with my summer class. Now I have time to read and write. :3
-
Got my final exam in my summer class today. Hopefully I'll do well. -fingers crossed-

@abigpony XD Well, I'll at least say that I use my anti-anxiety meds (Klonapin) to help fall asleep. But, it seems to not be helping me all that much right now.
-
@toksyuryel If only I had one. D: Especially a Luna plushie. Now that would be heaven for me. :3
-
Anyone have any pointers/tips on how to fall asleep quicker? Because I can't seem to fall asleep at all right now. D:
-
Thank goodness. I just have to read like 14 pages of a chapter in my textbook after class lets out tonight and then I can return it.

@hoit21 That's true. I'll probably get back to it shortly then. But still, even if I didn't do well on the exam, I'd still pass the class. XD But, you're right, I shouldn't put it off.
-
@hoit21 I'm almost thinking of just doing it after the class tomorrow. It's not like I have a quiz or anything. Plus, RDN is actually something I can concentrate on right now. XD
-
I only have half of a chapter left to read for this summer course and then the exam. I don't know why I'm having such a hard time concentrating right now. D:
-
Oh my Celestia, I have so much on my mind. The GRE that I might be taking in July/August; getting as much reading done over this summer as possible; finishing this one summer course up; and trying to not have a mental breakdown in the process. D:

Gah, this would be more bearable if I actually had work to do. But I don't. D:

That 8-11 pm nap that I took last night is coming back to bite me in the behind now, isn't it? No wonder I can't sleep.
