Mistakes of the past can never be left there. I feel so terribly low. My heart won't stop heaving. My brain keeps screaming epiphets inside and yet I remain completely void of emotion on the exterior. Nothing has went my way lately and I'm stuck swimming in my head with an aching heart. Everything is always my fault. I hatr being the one that's always broken beyond repair.

I understand your pain. I, too, have trouble leaving the past behind. And nothing seems to be going my way either and I am in dispair, but I don't think it is all my fault, a lot, but not all. I don't believe we are broken beyond repair, it is just a matter of finding a way to change the way our brains think.

Keep posting. Somehow we will dig our way out.

I understand how you feel.
Have you tried DBT?
Even if you haven't, a skill that you can try to practice even without experience in that area is called "Tolerate The Moment". Distractions like music and writing can help, but when they don't I'll allow myself to just kinid of imbrace the pain I'm feeling. To think obsessive thoughts and just sort of, winmill through it. Sometimes it can take a few days, but I found that it works well.
When talking about the skill "Tolerate The Moment" with my DBT therapist, he said that no matter how bad it seems in the moment that the intense feelings will past.

I currently doing DBT and I know I need to do that and accept that I am here because of a string of events and choices I made. It's hard to do that at times when the feelings are so intense. Working on it.

This means a lot. Made me a little teary and I don't feel so alone. Thank you.
