    I don't think anyone does understand how that constant thinking constant noise in your head is a full time full time job it's so overwhelming real life people get in the way battling non stop chatter then real life people come into the picture jobs relationships soooo overwhelming I have to accept who I am I've been fighting myself for years it doesn't work it doesn't serve me I want to be peaceful relaxed less fearful I don't want all the fear anxiety self-loathing pain I would never treat someone the way I've been treating myself and your right the little things can mean so much later I might feel scared and low but I will recognise it and really try to let it go accepting I live in a world that wasn't made for me but I will try to best to navigate it

    It's interesting about you wouldn't do it to other people, that just shows what a nice person you are… putting others before yourself even subconsciously

    I recently wondered, some of the things I think, say and do - even physically - to myself would be considered abuse if I did them to somebody else, which doing so would never cross my mind… but for some reason I consider it OK to be emotionally, verbally & even physically abusive to myself 🤔

    I wrote you a reply @Catherine21 but I triggered the filter 🙁 so it might pop up out of context later on, but I valued your post and have replied just so you know I didn't miss it

    @Catherine21 it is hard but we have to try.. but honestly today i have no strength. honestly/, i am scared of making false moves. i just feel more vulnerable than ever.. scared of being judged, scared of everything, scared of being hostile .etc, it is positive i am not in pain yet.. maybe later on. but i really feel like the odd one out everywhere, i just do not know what to do. i try to be positive but ….

    @Schildpad I think you're an interesting person… you may well be the "odd" one out in most places but people often stand out for good reasons, not bad ones! 👍

    Sorry to hear how things are for you at the moment @Amberpearl 😥 hopefully you can be seen by your GP soon. It might be worth mentioning your lump too whilst there. I hope you start to feel better.

    It's ok to feel these feelings your body gets transported triggered and it's gets hold of you it's hard to relax without feeling you should be doing things you did something amazing volunteering work doing something you love that's amazing you sorted your uc out and that must have been stressful try have a chilled day you deserve to rest I get really really scared and paranoid ao paranoid I'm trying to fight the @@@@ dont be hard on yourself there is no rule book we are all unique just be yourself we all have something to bring to the table it's the over analysing that's drives me insane and pre emptying the future ps I believe people who suffer the most are the kindest people ever i

    Here's my earlier post meant for you, I've added it as an image so it hopefully doesn't set off the spam filter again

    I agree with what you say about sufferers - in whatever capacity - often making the kindest people. It's funny as I imagine lots of the cruellest people have endured trauma as well. It's almost as though it sends many people one way or the other. 🤔

    It's that inner critic always there to punish us I've had since gosh I can remember age of 3 feeling upset sad angry so 50 years is a long time and yes I can say I beat myself up everyday since then and throw people into the mix bam my mind is gone i do self isolate alot i used to hate myself for that thinking i had no friends but know I'm perfectly fine in my own company they actually have therapy that is all about being kind and compassionate to yourself makes alot of sense when I see other people hurt i genuinely feel so much for them even strangers I'm a great empath so I'm really trying to be easy on myself worth a try

    @Amberpearl hope you will feel better after seeing the gp. but if you can not be seen tomorrow maybe a trip to the pharmacy, there are people there who might be abe to give you something for the time being before seeing your gp. that is only if you can not see your gp. bites can get badly infected… anyway i hope you can be seen tomorrow.

    @Catherine21

    That's interesting!

    When it comes to good/bad, I'm less optimistic about myself… I don't easily feel sympathy for anyone, and it's not unconditional… but when I do have empathy toward someone it's usually very strong, much more than toward myself.

    I also have this obsessive sense of justice, but like, often when someone has been wronged I seem to take more satisfaction from the perpetrator receiving justice than from seeing the victim recover!

    I kind of wonder if that's just a way of justifying satisfying the primal urge toward cruelty or violence that most living things possess … though, with me I don't take pleasure from it regardless of situation… seeing an innocent person receive unkindness horrifies me but seeing a wrongdoer receive the same unkindness would trigger satisfaction in an equal amount 🤔

    This is the 4th time a cat has bit my hand

    Everytime it's been infected and I've needed amoxocllian

    The pharmacy won't have them without prescription

    Gp opens at 830

    I always ring on time but it's like queue position 46. Crazy

    You can press a button to retain your position in the queue and the reception ring you back and prey there's an appointment left

    I'm. More worried about the lump near my breast alsorts of horrors going through my head

    I just woke up with it Friday morning

    Wasn't there Thurs night

    Strange

    And still no cardiology appointment

    My pulse still very high despite all the meds

    Something s upsetting my stomach as I keep opening my bowels like 5 times a day

    I'm. Fed up tbh. One thing after another

    I'm. Feeling very stressed and anxious now
