I Am Seeking Advice

I'm losing my mind. The other night something just hit me out of nowhere, like a nuclear bomb dropping on my brain. I froze up, I started shaking, and I got really confused and scared. Like jumping at the slightest touch scared. It was like I was there, but I was impotent, buried so deep under everything else in my mind that I couldn't even attempt to re-take control. I've recovered a bit, but I've been slightly off ever since. I don't understand this at all. If anyone could give me any advice, it would be very appreciated.

first of all, what is causing you to feel all this?

@wakanda4eva I honestly don't know. I'm always stressed at least a little bit, but it's never gotten like this before, not even close. It was like being so piled high full of feelings that my mind broke under the weight.

@HollowFire18 breathe in..breathe out..
feeling this much stress is not healthy on ur body, your mind

your emotional and physical well being needs to come first

@wakanda4eva I know, but it's so hard to just let things go. Negative thoughts stays in my mind for days,playing over and over. And I just feel so numb now, I don't know what to do with myself.

I relate a lot to how you feel, it's better to address this problems now, before they spiral out of control

But how do I address them? I've tried everything I know to try

baby steps, one problem at a time, each problem is unique so there's no one way of solving, but always remember that the focus is that you want to solve the problem, not cause more problems

If you have a trusted friend or therapist, you can ask for advice from them too

I don't really have anyone like that. That's why I'm here
