Ah... But I can't take the freakin things in the first place....

Why can't I "just" be quiet.. I've never "fitted in"

Never have

Never will

Papa bear loves me, that "unloveable" bear even her own parents rejected,...

I can't be "normal"

It's not possible

I'm sorry, I'm just so tired of the brick walls hitting me almost everywhere I turn.

The longer I live, the more I realise how profoundly "sub optimal" the parental units were...

So tired of this feeling of bafflement and overwhelm. No idea how I've survived this long

(This is not about anyone on PC)

I wish I could be "comfortably numb"



Am I posting in the wrong forum?

I've been dxd with severe depression and anxiety....

But as meds are not an option, hospital is not an option,

I'm so alone

((( Fuzzybear ))) ...

Pete Walker calls that feeling the "abandonment" depression ...

Quitting medications and....

Pg. 5 ... "The abandonment melange is the fear and toxic shame that surrounds and
interacts with the abandonment depression. The abandonment depression itself is the
deadened feeling of helplessness and hopelessness that afflicts traumatized children."

I've heard said that knowledge is half the battle ... I wish my newfound knowledge about
this could be a quick fix ... Alas ... As I said in an earlier haiku at a different thread:

and so we languish
and carry the anguish of
a loveless childhood

I understand about hospitals & meds not being an option. I'm more or less in the same boat just for a different reason.

Papa Bear is special. Your parents are an entirely different type of "special"...

Hang in there. I know how hard it can be. I am only mildly depressed which for me is progress. Meds, therapy, ALANON and several things I don't remember have helped somewhat. The meds are the most helpful to me but they only get me to the mildly depressed level and there are side effects. I have gained a lot of weight, my libido is weak, and now I am tired apathetic a lot.

You need to do what works for you. Be gentle with yourself. Just do whatever you think is the next right thing.

Fuzzy you're not alone. There are people here that care & want to help, even though we know there really isn't any way we can.
