The Interrogation

I recently experienced an unpleasant job interview. It felt like an interrogation of my personality and values. Nearly all the questions were behavioural and value based. They asked generic questions...

Re: wishing like the end of my natural life would just hurry up (triggering maybe?)

Thanks so much everyone. I hate to know that others feel this way too, but I am glad of the support and knowing others can relate to these feelings.

Re: going to bed for the night consistently

I got my new CPAP machine yesterday and was fitted with a smaller mask.

This was the best mask fit I've ever had. When I started it up there were absolutely no leaks that I could feel. Yet this...

Re: Depressed mood related to aging issues, chronic illness, and loneliness

Hello and welcome.

I’m 65 and yesterday I struggled with those kinds of thoughts. I have a bad back which keeps me from doing things I’d like to do, like traveling or going for walks. I used to...

Depressed mood related to aging issues, chronic illness, and loneliness

Hello. I am feeling really low these days.

I don't see to have much to get up in the mornings for any more. I am going to be 60 tomorrow. Which is fine.

But I also struggle with chronic...

Re: Where to go from here?

That's actually a really good idea. I could go anywhere I want, have some housing, get an on campus job, get on the good side of a few professors and have some references, have a degree and open up...

Re: wishing like the end of my natural life would just hurry up (triggering maybe?)

I feel the same. I just want to outlive my dog. I'm sure you want to live for your daughter. I'm 57. I don't want to live a long life either. My younger sister died over a year ago at 53 and she...

Re: High sex drive?

Are you in your 20s? 30s? I was that way when I was younger. I think it’s perfectly normal. It changes with age. I understand no privacy but where are you seeing your partner? You mentioned having...

Re: wishing like the end of my natural life would just hurry up (triggering maybe?)

Relatable. I'm simultaneously floored and amazed I'm still alive.

What would need to change for you to want to live (aside from the obvious "not be mentally ill")? Can you reasonably work towards...

Re: wishing like the end of my natural life would just hurry up (triggering maybe?)

I can relate to the feeling of things maybe not getting better. I've been depressed since 2017 and I've tried different meds and therapy.

But for some reason I hold on to the hope that things...

Not sure if this is a trigger, but just in case:

I'm 46, and I've been dealing with mental health issues since I was 20. On the gamut of psych meds since then. In and out of therapy. I don't...

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser

Wanting for her therapist to do an act is exactly what needs to be looked at though. The desire to control is perfectly acceptable (the realisation of it, not always), but this is exactly where he...

Re: I've been told I'm like never satisfied or something like that

I think this current funk is because I keep throwing up my psych meds every 2 days. Like I feel totally fine today and its because I kept my lamictal down last night for the first time in 2 days.

Re: Differences in mindset once you're not poor anymore

I'm a frugal person at heart, probably due to years of being broke.

Re: Couch 248: Curiouser and Curiouser
