Im sick of looping into mental health over and over. I pretty much have to in the hopes that they'll provide housing. No one I know has been doing this theyre entire lives but me. But i literally cant not go. Its been forced on me my entire life. Im jist not understanding why Im never out of the cycle for good if its so neccessary. I got asked what worked in the past and set up for the same old crap that I specifically said I dont want to continue doing over and over when nothing is getting accomplished. The accomplishment would be not being mentally ill. I feel so smothered with ridiculous things that I literally have no choice over no matter whatsngoing on theres always a way to force this crap on me by threat. Is anyone else sick of this stuff?

I don't know exactly what you're going through of course, and we may live with different mental health systems, but when it comes to the very basics of mental health then yes I too am quite sick of it. I am personally at a spot where I'm rethinking my own assumptions about what it means to be mentally healthy and how to maintain emotional and mental "hygiene" (such a disgustingly sterile word). Every situation, with the most thoughtful and well-trained therapists, just leads, seemingly blindly, down the road to automatic next steps (psychiatrist, medication, hospitalizations). I am desperate because what I'm asking for is so basic that to not get it feels like an affront to my humanity. Yet that desperation makes them think I'm an easy target; like I'm trying to buy a car and they want to upsell me.

I notice the same people tend to get stuck . Like Im the only one in my family stuck in mebtal health,jail and homlessnes as well as a bunch of other horrible things that people act like is completely unheard of. They jist keep forcing me to donthe same things for my basic needs. Im so sick of it. On top of that theyre literally telling me to beg family for money over and over again. How is that proffessional help? People seem to make sure I cant access basoc needs. Ive aleeady put the work in for nothing and now Im still begging for basic resources as an adult. They dont seem to listen . I dobt get the point of this as a lifestyle or why its happening to me in particular. I feel so singled out. Im at my wits end. Like thisnis relentless without resolution.

Start very small. I was for years trapped in a cycle of treatment that I now realize hurt as much as it helped. Not saying that's what you're going through; I can't know that. It took me years to work my way back into society. You can do it. I also don't know what you're being told to do or why. I don't know what programs you're in but if you're in them (i.e. choosing to be there) try to get from it everything you possibly can (not taking money from family but learning skills for living while you are/ can be there). If you need your family's help and they're willing to help you, take the help BUT have a plan to (at least try to) pay it back. Do what you can to take control of your own life. In my experience - and that is the only perspective, however limited, I can speak from - accountability and responsibility for my own life is the biggest healing factor in terms of mental health. No idea if you are working or able to, but if that's a possibility and you haven't been able to do so yet, I highly recommend reaching out for possibilities of employment. That was the number one thing that helped me claw control back over my own life.

I've job hopped since I was 15 and am quiet frankly sick of all of it. The mental health,school ,job hopping ,religion. All to have people pulling the same crap. At the end of the day they all know they have my basic needs as leverage. I just want to take the life i get and be over with all this forced improvement bullcrap.
