everything was resolved, no need to reply

i got my wisdom teeth out seven to eight hours ago. idk.

everything hurts. i can't drink water without it burning.

the only thing i've eaten today is cranberry sauce. i have to force myself to eat even though it hurts.

i wasn't numbed all the way for one of them. they kept going despite my cry of pain and the constant trembling in my legs.

for the one i wasn't numbed through for, they had to give two sets of stitches. everywhere else was just one.

the anxiety pill and the laughing gas weren't enough. i still had a panic attack and they had to pause halfway through.

it's been fun.

i've got a friend who's just recently told me she has depression. i don't know how to help right now. i've been telling her things that i'm hoping will help, but it's not working too well. if someone could pm me and talk about it, that would be great

[bleak.]

I just broke up with my boyfriend because I felt like I was in an unhealthy relationship, but I still feel terrible about it and he won’t stop messaging me.

I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of you. I'm so proud of you.

You'll feel terrible about it for awhile, and he might bother you about it, but it will pass. It's better to be out of an unhealthy relationship, even if you feel bad about it. You did the right thing, going with what you felt was right.

Sorry it's not much advice, but you could send me a pm if you need anything!

Anxiety. Anxiety.

It’s just... difficult.

I just told one of my closest friends about my ocd, and I just don’t think anyone understands how difficult it is. No one seems to. It just is...

I stared at discord for a good hour yesterday before I finally mustered enough courage to ask someone to watch a movie with me
just a movie, and they were more than happy to watch with me and it wasn't even a big deal

I've been really struggling reaching out to people and sharing my emotions, even though they tell me theyre alright with hearing it....I feel like I overshare and in the past that's come to back to bite me
I make a meme outta everything so I guess it's hard to take me seriously

some advice would be appreciated if you got any, or even if you've been through the same thing it's always assuring to hear I'm not alone

Lmao, I relate. I am/was the epitome of an "open book" as most put it. I always overshared everything in my life to people without a second thought. Occasionally, someone would kinda shake their head and say that what I shared was too explicit or is something I should avoid sharing with people I barely know. At one point, someone who I viewed as a friend talked about me to a stranger and mocked for something I thought I could share with him. Afterwards, I closed off from nearly everyone because it hurt so much. It may sound pessimistic, but I don't trust a lot of people now. I only share with my close friends and family. I suppose, however, that's probably for the best anyway. As for asking your friends to watch movies with you or other activities, I wouldn't concern myself with it too much. It's just a movie; I know it's difficult to come out fo your shell and request things like that but as you just saw, the outcome was more than ideal. You got to watch a movie with that person!

Hello! Since I am a person who suffers from depression, I will attempt to help as much as possible. First off, is your friend on a medication? If not you should probably recommend she makes a doctor appointment in the near future. Even so, the medication won't fix it all. She'll still have occasionally have episodes and when she does it's up to you to remind her that you're there for her and care for her well being. If you can, every now and then if she's having another episode buy her favorite chocolate bar or maybe a soda that you know she likes and once again, remind her that you're there for her. It may seem insignificant, but she'll appreciate it.

I just broke up with my boyfriend because I felt like I was in an unhealthy relationship, but I still feel terrible about it and he won’t stop messaging me.

I can, unfortunately, relate to this as well. The best course of action would be to simply tell him to stop; if he respects you as a person, he'll honor your request and leave you be. In the scenario that he refuses to abide by your rules, block him. It may seem harsh, even cruel, but if he continues to message you and make you feel bad there's a chance you might get back with him. (That's what happened to me). It's essential that you distance yourself from him, it'll be best for both of you. It's natural to feel bad too, I felt the same way when I broke up with my boyfriend. there's nothing wrong with feeling terrible, you're human and it's natural. What's important is that you don't let it hinder you.

best of luck, Deuce.

no need to reply! just looking to vent a little, sorry for a long rant <3

i just wish sometimes my friends would take me seriously. sure, i'm known as the 'jokester' of the group, but i can sit down and not crack jokes sometimes, you know? whenever i try to make a serious statement or discuss something i feel passionate about they usually brush it off and talk about something else. i'm not sure if they realize it - maybe i should tell them that bothers me? i'm so bad at confrontation though and i don't want them to get angry. i'm always so intimidated by some of them, though. maybe one day i'll work up the courage.

it hurts when i try to start a conversation but i get ignored. i feel like i'm in the friend group, but not really included with them. i wish i could speak up, but previous times when i tried, they claimed i was trying to start drama and i am involved in the chat,, but i don't feel like i am. so i usually swallow down my issues and just go along, because what the 'leaders' of the group says is always right, and i'm not. my friendship with some of them isn't healthy, i know that, but i don't know how to leave them after being with them for so long. i'm afraid of being alone. i'm shy and quiet, and i suck at making friends.

i want to leave this group so badly. it stings to know that they wouldn't care if i left silently when i used to cherish them all dearly once. i was just someone there for them to talk to when they were bored. i see them act all sweet and kind to everyone, but behind their backs, they gossip and make fun of them. i don't want to be apart of this, but i'm struggling to leave because i know that i'll be the next one that they laugh at. it's hard not to care what they think of me. "their opinion of you doesn't matter," but it really does to me and i've tried changing that. it's so hard for me to not worry about other's thoughts on me.

whew, felt great to get that out, thank you <3

[momincharge]

me and my girlfriend broke
up recently and my ex-girlfriends
best friend gets to brag to me after
me and my girlfriend break up about
how she's meeting her irl and stuff.

irl I would in a heartbeat. my girlfriends
best friend acts suicidal on her account
and then she comes to me and brags how
she can meet the one i still love irl and how
'she's more trusting than me'. what the flip
