IRL is different, yeah. I love this community, I think it's important that we're here, but there is something different about being physically with people who support you. I hope you find that.

I've got a few issues rn. Ones that have already driven be to a full in panic attack. I talked to my dad but I need more then my dad for this. 

Ok so to start. I love my mom. My dad thinks she's using me. She has been asking stuff like when I was gone did dad feed you? Or when I was gonw did you get your meds? We know she's was trying to convince my dad that I'd be better with her but dropped that. I feel like she's doing that cause me choosing my dad is hurting her. I don't want to hurt her. I feel if I hurt her then her depression will come back. Along with her suicidal thoughts. She'd kill herself and it would be my fault. I know that it's not hut I can't but feel that. At the same time I feel like I'm not devoting myself enough to religion. I've never been to much for religion. But I go to church and all these people talk about how if your dedicated to religion then you get a bunch of blessings and life is so fun and awesome. They also say that it will look different for everyone. I thought I came to a conclusion of what it looks like for me but... well when I look back at my life it's full of pain and hurt. More then blessings. Sure I have alot. My friends and family. But... now I don't see anything. I feel like if... well maybe it would hurt less... then I try to stop that train of thought cause it scares me. That I won't be as strong as last time. That I'd give in. That I've gotten weaker over the years. I may have survived thoughts like that before but I fear if I fall there again I'm not gonna be strong enough but I don't know who to tell. I have all these issues but no solutions. I love the comfort I get but I need answers. Advice. I think oh if I pray I'll get them but I can't tell the difference between the holy ghost and my mental issues. And I'm at the point of questioning if it really exists cause why the hell would they let this happen. Then I think oh i can't think that. Cause it's not true and my brain argues. I love the comfort. But any answers. Solutions ways to help?

Thanks for the advice. It's just. That's what I hear alot. I don't wanna sound like I'm turning it away or ignoring it. But alot of people say that. Turn to god and he will help. I have. I've looked to him for comfort when my parents yelled at my brother for hours a day. I looked to him during the years I was depressed. It got better but it never stays. It just falls back down. I can't enjoy my happy times because it just falls again. I swear this is the third or fourth time in my short lifetime I have fallen this far. I want to turn to him but HOW. I do what everyone says I pray I read the scriptures I go to church. I know all about how to do it. I try it works but it only works for a few hours at most. It doesn't last. I need it to last.i need my life to go back to normal. I want to be happy again. For more then 12 hours at a time. It sounds selfish it sounds stupid. I just wish my life was normal for once! I wish I was normal. Like everyone else at church who doesn't worry about this how do they get to be fine while I do the same things but want to off myself every other year! I feel so stupid being jealous of them but I can't help it. I can't stop it!

Sorry I just... I just... I need to yell at something. Get everything I think out of my head. 

10 hours ago, Thee insane said:

Thanks. Everyone's comfort is so good. *hugs back*

Thanks. This advice is great.

Today in seminary during the normal discussions I found some things and was able to figure stuff out. I never really thought being able to hear one thing that changed your mind was a thing but. Today we were discussing d&c ten and my teacher said that Jesus helps us even if we can't see it. He is in out corner and Satan is the reason bad things happen. There is good from every trial. Sometimes something devastating happens and we think God isn't hearing us. He is. Even if we aren't hearing him. 

That's paraphrased but from it I realized even though I can't tell if he talks to me he hears me. To pray no matter what because it just takes a bit to get though. 

Also a bit late to this one (was away for a few days without internet.) I'm glad you found some comfort and stability!

I think KnightSkye's advice is great, and he said most of what I would say, so yes to that.
May I recommend the book of Psalms for when you need to yell? Plenty of demonstrations of healthy yelling at God there, plus also hope and restoration. The Psalms are all about human emotions and God.

I want to add something, partly in response to what @Kaladin Stormcursed said about the purpose of religion. (Which btw, Stormcursed, what you said was fine, I'm debating, not offended)
Saying one of the main purposes of religion is community is a viewpoint from sociology. Religion functions to create community in societies, yes, but that's not its purpose; that happens as an offshoot, a result, of what it actually is. (Stormcursed, if I'm correctly reading your post, you're not religious? So very understandable you're coming from that viewpoint)
Religion is the pursuit of Truth. The purpose of religion is to discover Truth. Religion only matters if what we believe is actually true. Its purpose is not ultimately to make us feel better. We can find comfort in it sometimes, but that is not why it matters. It matters because it's true. And so it won't always be comforting, in the sense of making us feel better, of making our problems go away. But it can be reassuring to know "Yes, it will be hard; yes, it is broken; yes, it will be painful sometimes; but all of this has an order, a way things are supposed to be, and the more that order is followed, the more things are put into alignment, the better things will get. And yes sometimes it will hurt more for a time, because moving one part into alignment while another part is still broken hurts. But it moves towards good, it moves towards healing." Especially when we're at a point where we can't see how God is working, don't see evidence of Him hearing us.
But - if you don't believe it's actually true, then that falls apart. So I'd also encourage you to do a bible study on "How do we know the bible is true?" if you can. That kind of study can be incredibly reassuring and really solidify your faith, give you a stable foundation to stand on when the world falls apart around you.

And it’s funny how I feel the most pretty when I’m lying in my bed, in pajamas all day and having talked to no one and it’s funny how I feel the most content procrastinating, knowing I’ll be miserable with homework come the evening and it’s funny how I feel more free and myself at school where I hide my interests, experiences, and emotions under a surprisingly authentic comedy mask than at home and it’s funny how no matter how much I say “I’m cooked,” I never worry until I’m in tears at 12 and it’s funny how I feel like I bear no ill will towards myself until some hateful thought comes sneaking in and it’s funny how I think with cheerful certainty that I love being alive, and hate myself and it’s funny how I feel the most energetic when I’ve slept for only two hours and it’s funny how I laugh when I feel broken and it’s funny how saying I’m making progress makes me happier than the idea of actually being better and it’s funny how I know I’m destroying myself slowly but don’t care and it’s funny how everything that seems like a victory only leads to me deteriorating more and it’s funny how that makes me want to laugh and it’s funny how I smile the brightest and the hollow-est when I hate someone and it’s funny how every single thing that makes me happy either stops making me happy or is ultimately bad for my health, and it’s just a little less funny but a whole lot more ironic that I am enjoying wasting away

Wow haha that was long angsty and poetic alrighty then

And it's amazing how you feel pretty when at your most relaxed and comfortable rather than only when you've covered all your perceived flaws and primped and presented the "right" image, and it's amazing that you can identify when you feel content and that you have moments where you are, and it's amazing how you can feel free and comfortable while wearing a mask (which btw is a part of you, even if it's not your "true" self, the mask you choose is a part of you, a part of you that's chosen and sculpted by you, and is actually a reflection of some of who you are; it's not all of you, but it is part of you), and it's amazing that you can keep going and hold it off until it's late and you can safely collapse, and it's amazing that you know what it feels like to bear no ill will towards yourself and that you have times when you love being alive, and it's amazing that you can sleep for two hours and feel energetic.

And none of that makes it "better", none of that fixes everything, none of that fills the hollow in the smile or makes happy things healthy; none of that will make the bad things feel ok, but don't add more self-guilt and self-condemnation where you don't need to.

It's ok to be ok where you are. Where you are is amazing. It probably feels worthless; you see all the ways in which it's broken; but it's also amazing.

I think we all underestimate ourselves; the amount to which we can feel joy despite also feeling broken, feel content despite feeling empty, laugh while broken. We can feel contradictions. We can feel ourselves wasting away, while feeling strong and making progress. We can live contradictions and keep going. We are incredibly strong. Hollow, broken strength. Contradictions. ...It's late and rambling I'm not making sense anymore ok goodnight y'all.

Its alright. I know we can't all be online every day.

So even more today. Yay. But it's good. After dinner during come follow me my mom said another thing. It was along the lines of God always sees ahead. He knew what the people were trying to do to frame Joseph Smith so he was able to tell Joseph not to rewrite the book of Lehi. Joseph thought this as a failure. Sure but we got the book of Nephi instead. And in alot of ways, especially personally that helped me more then the contents of Lehi would have. Maybe this divorce is my 116 pages. Ok so life falls apart I feel like I failed somewhere somehow. Or I'm not good enough. Well... somethings gonna come from this. Something is gonna be my book of Nephi. 

I think this can apply to anyone and everyone. 

Whats your 116 pages? What's your book of Nephi?

Ooo I love that idea

My friend group fell apart freshman year, and I spent a lot of it alone, or just with my one friend who stayed with me. That'd be my 116 pages.

My Book of Nephi... well, I met this guy and we got close. I wouldn't have ever met him if I hadn't lost my old group, but now he's my best friend in the world. I love him so much, and he makes my life the happiest place ever. I went through an awful year, but because of it I met him.

That's really a beautiful analogy. Sometimes the hard, bad things end up with things being better, or at least things end up okay. Maybe they aren't perfect, and we wish that it wouldn't happen, but things work out.

Hey y'all, it's been quieter in here. That could be good or bad, so - Check in! How's everybody doing?
Anything you want to talk about? Struggles? Good things? Random thoughts?
(You don't need to go into details if you don't want, but put a peep in here or something, whether good or bad, let us know you're still around.)

For myself, I started a new psych med about a month ago, and I've discovered it makes me sleepier. My jaw hurts from yawning so much haha. I think it has been helping with dark thoughts - had fewer lately, that's nice! - but I'm switching to taking it at nighttime instead of the morning so I stop falling asleep in the middle of the day. (And then not at night.)
There ya go, there's my check in. Where's everyone else at?
(And yes, I mean you. You specifically, reading this and thinking I won't notice if you don't comment, or don't actually want to hear how you're doing. Yes you.)

Other than what I’ve said in pms im going ok. School is awesome and fun, my friends and i get closer every day and for the first time in a while most of my day is spent laught my (word) off with my friends. I think y’all’s support and help from counselors and friends has really helped me. I was able to get myself out of the depression i fell into before it got to far. I still hurt a lot but thats expected considering the circumstances.

School is awesome and fun, my friends and i get closer every day and for the first time in a while most of my day is spent laught my (word) off with my friends. I think y’all’s support and help from counselors and friends has really helped me. I was able to get myself out of the depression i fell into before it got to far. I still hurt a lot but thats expected considering the circumstances.

Yay!!!

Hey y'all, it's been quieter in here. That could be good or bad, so - Check in! How's everybody doing?
Anything you want to talk about? Struggles? Good things? Random thoughts?
(You don't need to go into details if you don't want, but put a peep in here or something, whether good or bad, let us know you're still around.)

For myself, I started a new psych med about a month ago, and I've discovered it makes me sleepier. My jaw hurts from yawning so much haha. I think it has been helping with dark thoughts - had fewer lately, that's nice! - but I'm switching to taking it at nighttime instead of the morning so I stop falling asleep in the middle of the day. (And then not at night.)
There ya go, there's my check in. Where's everyone else at?
(And yes, I mean you. You specifically, reading this and thinking I won't notice if you don't comment, or don't actually want to hear how you're doing. Yes you.)
