    Mcaid matching dollars are likely going away, which is why. Message me with your state and I can try to help you come up with something clever.

    I had to take the day off. I feel like
    I am going to explode and fall apart all at the same time. I'm on meds though admittedly the past few days haven't been consistent due to being in/out of the hospital as a caregiver.

    I know I need to ask for help but I just can't. So this is my attempt to hold myself accountable.

    Blah.

    I was right. Prestigious

    The amount of times I thought "this semester I will finally graduate!" then proceed to have some sort of breakdown/intense depressive episode and either fail or drop my classes is far too high. I'm tired.

    I'm in GA but apparently one of the others that worked with me to open it is figuring something out. She's a lot smarter than me so I have faith lol

    I'm sorry you're feeling bad. It took me 3 years to ask for help. Is hubby supportive or have you not told him that you're having a hard time with meds? I went on a trip once and I take 4 meds and forgot them. I was in withdrawal by the 2nd day and we stayed for a week. So guess what I did..self medicated with alcohol which was the worst thing in the world for ppl with mental illness to do haha

    I felt CRUSHING depression and anxiety but thank god didn't go manic. I feel like I say this a lot but there are a bunch of good people in here who you can always count on if you need to talk/vent or whatever. I'm sending good vibes your way! :heart:

    I will ponder some ideas and let you know what I come up with!

    He's great about it. I just feel terrible and super lathargic. Plus life is super stressful anyways so I want to just curl up in a ball and cry. That of course makes me feel even worse and more overwhelmed.

    My old housemate and friend suddenly passed away last night. Car accident. We weren't the closest but having lived with her and her close friends for a period of time has it hitting too close to home. She was a very nice person and I have nothing but good memories of her.

    I just keep seeing my friends post about her on facebook and I wish I had something to say to help quell the pain but I know it's all part of the process. It's a reminder to cherish people while you can. Be kind and give love in abundance.

    I Miss Jake W Prestigious

    Me back when I was in college. I was one failed class away from being expelled. That took a lot from me, and I always felt like giving up, even after the small victories.

    I'm hoping things go well for you.

    set our hearts ablaze

    Really feeling like I'm at the end of my rope. I have no job prospects, no active friends, no one who cares about me other than my own mom and we got in a fight tonight so she's she not even speaking to me.

    Tried to be honest with my partner and she immediately said she couldn't handle it and then has been claiming all night that I'm arguing when her when I'm literally just at one of the lowest places I've been in my life.

    Idk. Just wanna give up. No one would notice if I just stopped existing anyway.

    Everyone you just mentioned in your post would notice if you stopped existing. You impact the world around you far more than you think you do; we all do. You're wonderful and deserve immense happiness. I'd say that I hope you pull yourself out of this current low, but truth is, I don't have to be hopeful that you will, because I know that you will. You, and everyone in this thread, are so strong and brave, unique and inspiring. If you need some help with that first step out of the low, this entire thread is here for you.

    Man. This post means a lot to me. Honestly. I'm having a lot of emotions tonight so I can't really explain how I feel right now but... Just thank you. Thank you thank you thank you.

    Getting out of that low is hard but idk, even just a post like this helps. I'm really touched and hoping tomorrow holds more positivity.

    My resting heart rate has been high (100-110) for a few months now, and I thought stopping my Adderall would help.. nope. I'm only on Lamictal and a very small 25mg dose of Seroquel.. I'm beginning to worry one of those is the culprit, but I really don't want to stop either :(. After having some coffee, I feel sick right now from the increase.

    My BP shot up once I started taking Seroquel. In the same range as yours. Lamictal was a good thing bc it helped with my blood pressure.

    Both my Grandma and my great uncle are not doing too good. Seems like it might just be a momentary sickness/pain thing but at 71 and 76 respectively and after all the deaths in recent years I'm here with anxiety. Me and them haven't been the closest esp in recent months but they are still huge to me, especially my Grandma.

    Also some dude showed up at my house last night when everyone but my sister wasn't home asking for her brother - she asked which and the guy seemed surprised and said "....Dylan?" (my middle brother) didn't say who he was, just asked what car he drives and where our parents are. Creeped my sister out. - My brother is a weedman, and he got some buddies that seem to think theyre street dudes.
    I don't like that, regardless who it is (and at first I was nervous it was undercover or an ex's dad/family member - still not sure either way) I told her "If he comes back, tell me to come to the door. If we're not home ask/take his name or sneak a photo. If he won't give a name tell em flat out "If you don't got a name and a story I don't got answers and cooperation," and tell him to get the fuck outta here.
    So I'm sitting here in my own house uncomfortably now. I'm hoping that dude shows up again cus it was clear he waited for my Dad and I to leave to come to the door, to try and get my baby sister (aka someone who might not know better) to give him information.
    Here's hoping it's just some random asshole.
