I have been in bed since Sunday evening after my….”breakdown”. Still shaking, still feeling generally lowsy, still crying and still randomly short of breath. I don’t know if my nervous system is shot or if I have finally just went mad..either way I’m a mess.

If you went mad, you would be less aware of it
I constantly feel like I’m losing or lost my sanity.
But I find people who have really lost theire sanity, aren’t actually aware of it, most of the time
I’m sorry you are such a mess, I am too. If that makes you feel less a lone? Someone else in the world is in a similar position to you, going crazy and breaking down. In her room. Funny hey?
What help and support do you have? is there anyone you can call to come round? family, friend, professional?
The short of breath thing sounds like you are having panic attack, Have you tried deep breathing? Is it possible at all for you to go out for some fresh air and a little walk? (I understand this may not feel possible at all)
I just dont wanna move or see anybody right now
And I feel the same exact way. Looks like we can really relate. It’s okay to breakdown, I think it can be a relief sometimes. When I’m in bed all day and someone try’s to drag me out or bother me, I can’t stand it, it doesn’t help at all. So, do what you have to do. Sleep, cry, moan, breathe, let it out. Let your heart, body and mind consume what you’re going through, learn it. Then you can hopefully refrain from it. I doubt that helped, but you’re not alone.
I can understand that, I’m having the same problem.. it’s makes it so much harder to bear when you completely isolate yourself from people.
Are their any distractions you could do at times, like watch a film? paint, draw, something to escape your mind for a bit?
@mimsicle For me, yes I always distract myself with entertaining things but those moments always seem to creep up on me, ya know?
yes i do know. i dont tend to remember to distract myself with entertaining things.
And when this state creeps up on me, I run to my usual unhealthy self destructive coping mechanisms. so i’m probably not the best person to give advice
I say, break down, full on. let it ride.
I don’t know, sorry
Exactly. That’s what I said. You can’t just ignore a breakdown, just let it pass.
oh right you did, sorry, I just repeated you didn’t I? I’m pretty stupid, been calld stupid since the day I was born pretty much.
