I'm nothing but a shell of what used to be a good person. I used to be a good person. Now I'm just a broken record replaying the same events over and over and over and over and over. I don't think it will ever stop.

Welcome to the forums, sounds tough to be in the spot you are in. Have you found decent therapy to help you in your process? Feeling hopeless truly feels horrible sometimes. Cordially, Sarah

No I don't go to therapy. I don't go anywhere. I lie to family members and tell them I went to the store, or I went here or I went there but the truth is I haven't left this house, this room basically, in almost 6 months. I try to leave but only make it to the edge of the porch before I can't breathe.

I've considered dialing 911 and just let them drag me out of here. Maybe drugged so I don't notice I'm leaving the perimeter I've created in my mind. But what if I do and they come to deal with me, not physically ill, not bleeding, not unconscious and someone a mile away has a choking baby or a horrible wound. I want out of this prison and I want help, or I wouldn't have bothered coming to this site and saying as much as I have. Who knows who might be watching.

I encourage you to call 911. Tell them what you are telling us.
Don't worry about the what ifs for now.

I encourage you to seek help. My thoughts are with you during this trying time. You will survive. The first step is admit you need help and just by posting you have taken that step. There is nothing wrong with calling 911 for assistance in your situation, that is what they are there for.
Good luck Keep the group posted With love Danielle V |

So sorry you're going through this, Constance. I hate to sound like a broken record, but calling a crisis line or 911 might really help. I know it's not an easy decision to make.

Welcome to psychcentral Constance. You might think of calling the social worker dept at the local hospital. Not only will they talk with you on the phone, but they are a wealth of information of services that are available... options to help you get back on track... good wishes! Glad you found us.

Constance,
I feel the same way...I have the same problem...and I can't "make it stop" either... If you figure it out, let me know...I was trapped in my house too and still sort of am...you are not alone. Please remember that. You are not alone, there are other people going through it. It has been 9 months and the thoughts for me are finally stopping. My ordeal was 9 months long. You will be ok. It takes time. Jackie
