Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please
I don't want to do things with him anymore as they were becoming no good for me, but I also don't want to leave him in a place as bad as it sounds he is in. I find it hard to hear of someone going through a difficult time and ignore that. I get that what he is going through is hard for him, but in a way I think he might be playing on my emotions too and I don't want to give in to that.
This pushing makes me doubt myself. What if I really am uncaring and cold-hearted? What's wrong with me for not being able to establish and keep firm boundaries? Why am I doubting this when I think deep down it is OK? What if something happens and I didn't do anything about it?

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please
Seeing all these former graduates of my old high school celebrated by doing great things like honours degrees and engineering...all part of international women’s day. I reflect and worry, am I such a loser that I’ve not accomplished anything worthwhile to others? Part of my plan was to help others, but apparently that’s not enough. When will I get off my stupid butt and do something amazing?

I can't control my urges. I feel like I have lost total control.

Little voices are going chitter chatter in my head
Little voices wishing I was dead

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please
At the moment, I’m constantly anxious. I have complex-PTSD and I was doing okay for a while. My memories that I suppressed returned last year. I was coping okay. I saw my psych forgnightly and continue to do so. Maybe I was this bad then too. I don’t know. But last week I had a whole new round of new memories. I’m worried about everything. I’m at home with a virus but I can’t stop checking my emails for work. Obsessing about every little thing I should have or could have done better. My anxiety is ruling me. When people are here, I want to be alone. When I’m alone, I want someone here. I feel like I can’t do anything right. I look at the clock and hope time has passed and only minutes have. I can’t concentrate. I feel like if I tell people what’s wrong or how bad I’m feeling that I’m also failing. I hate that the people I do tell.. I feel like I’ve burdened them.

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no, it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken...
William Shakespeare,
Sonnet 116
