Mental health thread

Sometimes I'm questioning my own sanity. As if the people around me weren't real of that my behaviour isn't actually mine but a facsimile of how people wants to perceive me.

Technically, are you someone because of yourself or because others are looking at you? Someone can exist only if there are other to witness them or else they don't.

I know that there's cogito ergo sum but in the same way if a tree falls in a forest without anyone to hear it then it doesn't make a sound.

Good question , you can exist but I think what you mean is your existence is acknowledged by others

Yeah. also another example is that my grandma always gets shocked every time she hears the world "maldito/maldita" (as in damn, damned and cursed)

That actually cracked me up , old people tend to see their grandsons and daughters in like this angelic and perfect way I think.

Well I mean you can't curse? Ehh its alright is there something else that makes you feel handcuffed?

Im actually used to not swearing irl. Also other examples would include not being allowed to talk to people online (although its understandable), play violent videogames, and watch violent stuff and stuff with swearing

Considering that this thread is still doing alive and well, my condolences towards everyone that could be potentially in a sixky situation within their lives and I hope that you're able to slither your way out of trouble. This march has been nothing but hell (won't get too specific cause that's not the point), but im still alive and im still moving and grooving and thats the ultimate point.

Don't forget to drink water and get some sun! We wilt if we don't photosynthesize.

Been in a weird slump recently, falling back into bad habits. I’m feeling that creeping fear I’m falling back into that lazy lump that did shit all but at the same time I’m half too tired to care.

Maybe you/your body needs the rest? Hopefully carving out some time for yourself will give you the energy you need to get back into a more active routine.

It’s more the opposite I need to do more, I’m starting to sleep way more than I should again.

Have you tried setting more alarms? Including multiple ones for when you need to do some sort of exercise? Try annoying yourself about it so much you can't ignore it. It's not nice to have treat yourself that way, but sometimes it's the only way.

I have far too many alarms I just sleep through them. I just need to get my shit together. I’m just so scared of getting stuck and spiralling again that ironically it gets me spiralling . I don’t think it’ll happen but I’ve been feeling real gloomy today so here I am rambling

Don’t feel like talking in person but don’t want to stew in my own head

This may not be feasible, but really consider purchasing a louder alarm clock and placing it far away from your bed so you have to get up. No matter how grim it may be at the time, it's nothing compared to how shit you'll feel if you spiral again.

Also, I genuinely hope you feel better soon, however you accomplish it. You can do it.

I think I do wake up but only enough to turn off the alarm (don’t remember these moments at all), but at the same time I sleep through a lot of them. I’ve used a couple different ones but so far no winners

And Thanks

Maybe focus on setting alarms that tell you when to start winding down to sleep then? It won't be such a challenge to get up in the morning if you've given yourself enough sleep. :) Also, if you don't feel like sleeping until your brain just shuts off, it usually means you haven't exhausted your body enough. A short run, a long walk, or a few bodyweight exercises should fix that. It's so important, I wish I'd been taught that at school, along with taxes and stuff.

And of course if all else fails, book an appointment with your GP.

I also used to struggle getting out of bed , I would have told you how I fixed this but I really don't know how...I just dragged myself outta bed early in the morning and it seemed to work.

It’s something I’ve always struggled with. I was doing good but of recent I’ve in a dip of recent, it’s been rather disheartening

What a shame, it sucks when it happenes

This is just me, I rarely have problem waking up, but when I do, I turn it into a game.
I set my phone alarm to a sound of certain someone moaning loudly and set it aside at least 3 meters away from the bed.

And voila, my inner instinct WILL force me to wake up the next day, 2 seconds tops, it never failed.
