For me the problem are my parents. They're always at each other throats and there is so much tension that I recently started suffering of anxiety and feeling like my throat is constricted. And my mother is always talking to me about her problems that I can't tell her that my not feeling well is partly her doing. Today I finally snapped and cried in......   reply

I am very much like this, I used to hate opening up about my problems and it really had a negative impact on my mental health. I still don't like for people to see me cry, and I do prefer to cry in my room alone, but after a certain point, when I was finally in a space I felt comfortable to cry in, those tears never came. I was lucky enough to fin......   reply

I just try to be as positive as possible, if a bad thought puts me down I would just smile (which doesn't actually work most of the time) or to quickly think about something else. But still its really hard to stay positive 24/7.   reply

So I try to be strong most of the time. My dad’s an alcoholic who really likes to falsely accuse my mom of being a cheater and would even call me and my siblings just so that he can verbally abuse my mom on the phone whenever he’s having what we call one of his “episodes”.

I also have times like this, I'm pretty shy but the thing is since I have an emotionless face people end up thinking that I'm emotionless and can treat me however they want.

I'm like this as well. I'm quite a pessimist and also a cynic. I have so much trust issues that I don't easily trust anybody. Not even with the smallest things. My friends keep telling me that I am so happy-go-lucky. They're wrong tho. I am very sensitive. I just don't like to show my emotions because I feel like if I do they might use it against m......   reply
