We all have HA, but I can't help thinking there's something more going on with this girl. Some sort of personality disorder.

I think an appointment with a psychiatrist is warranted.

Wow.. okay.

I'm not attacking you by the way. My opinion is offered in good faith.

Please Grace, don't ever think anyone is getting at you. Whatever is said is meant to help. We all know how difficult it can all be, and I very much doubt if anyone on here would give up on you. But an effort needs to be made to help yourself, and constant fretting over imaginary illnesses will not help one bit. You wind yourself up and wonder why you feel fearful. Breaking this habit is not easy, but it can be done given the will. Acceptance is still the answer.

I do have therapy next week, yes. People think I didn't wanna get help but therapy is expensive and difficult to get into. Especially for me. I finally managed to do it but I had to do it on my own. I didn't really feel the need to tell everything wrong with me but sure. I don't just have anxiety. Possibly have OCD. Panic disorder, major depressive.

But that is just what you need to do. In any sort of therapy holding back information is not helpful. If you have trust in your therapist then tell all. It's the only way they can help.

Well I guess I'll try not to make a whole nother post so here it is.

I slept on this ledge of my couch. It doesn't have cushion, it was hard, my head flung back. Like my eyes and my head feels achy and had some pressure. Of course this was this morning and now of course its night tine. Does it have to do with how I slept, and how can I remedy this? It seems small but I worry. My mom always gets onto me about how I sleep and what if it turns into something serious. As you can see below its pretty hard.

Getting into a daily routine of relaxation meditation where your focus is on your breathing is a good thing to do. I’ve been doing it for well over three years. When I first started, I could only breathe very shallowly. Over the course of time, I began to recognize all the tensed muscles that were involved in keeping me from breathing correctly. This exercise , if practiced daily, can help restore your natural breathing. If we don’t take in enough oxygen, of course we will have symptoms reflecting the lack it. This exercise is something you “should google” to learn how to to breathe effectively. Be aware that it won’t be easy because of body/ muscle attention. You will have to accept that just doing your best everyday is good enough, it doesn’t have to be perfect to be effective. It took me three years to finally get to the point of true abdominal breathing, and I’m still somewhat tense at times. This exercise also helps those muscles learn to relax, which also helps relax the mind. It sounds like a long time, but each person is different. If you want it, you’ve got to do what it takes to get it. You didn’t get this way overnight, it took a long time of negative thinking to put you where you are, it is only reasonable to assume it will take some amount of time to get to normal again.

It looks like you slept on the back of the couch. If you sleep like that, is there any wonder you have aches and pains? Do you do this on purpose?

I mean not the back really. The arm of the couch. No, of course I don't sleep that way on purpose. I've. been trying but it seems like I miss the actual pillow. Just wondering if it would be harmful. Still feeling it from this morning.

Yes it’s harmful, that’s why you still feel it from this morning. If you missed the pillow, why didn’t you correct the problem and put your pillow where it belonged, under your head? Nobody could sleep with their head in that kind of position. If you want attention, eventually you will get more than you bargained for. Show this to your therapist.

So do I, seems to need an awful lot of attention.

 

[Jonathan123]

For God's sake.What's wrong with going to bed!!!! You admit you need attention.
Well try and correct it. It seems to me you would rather be in the state you are than be better, then you would get little attention. Wanting attention for it's own sake can put people off talking to you.

What is your relationship with you mother and grandmother like? Reading between the lines I sense a lot of tension.
