Hey, I get those too. Had ‘em pretty freaking bad last semester. The whole feeling of the world crashing down like you’re gonna have a stroke or your breathing will stop altogether ain’t too pleasant, especially when your muscles which are already screwed to hell get even more screwed and make movement difficult, among other things like every nerve in your body feeling like it’s on fire.

Do you know how I fixed the problem?

I got into an exercise routine. And a job. Went out and was more social. Never took anti-depressants nor did I want to. I can tell you that as an expert sitter-around-the-houser that it does absolutely jack all for either your physical or psychological wellbeing. Strop it.

Also being able to laugh at silly stuff and relax helps a lot. Log in to see images!

You’re right, and I am indeed trying to get into a good exercise routine and slowly socialise more and more. I know if I just throw myself into the deep end it’ll just do me more harm than good, but like I said before, it’s just baby steps at the moment. Eventually I’ll be able to cope a lot better with things and go out more, and doing that will help me to continue to get better at doing so.

Right now I’m just trying to relax and enjoy not having to do too much for a while, and spend time with my family. In a couple years my sister’s going to be going off and getting a job and things, and at the moment it’s more important to me to spend time with her than work on my own problems. Once she’s off on her own in the world and I don’t have much to do I’ll start work on myself.

And I’m always open to laughing at silly things. And myself. If I wasn’t I wouldn’t have lol’d at the vast majority of bumburger comments in this thread, and would’ve instead just ****ed at absolutely everyone who addressed the subject negatively and then cried in a corner.

I just hate ignorant people telling me to just rub some dirt on it and walk it off. I don’t mind good advice like you’ve given me, but retards pretending like they know what’s best for me and barking out orders just ****es me off. I know myself, what I can take and what I need to do. It’s just a slow process is all.
