Oh no. I just want to cry for help

I woke up this morning and immediately started crying. I cried for a while until I started vomiting. I haven’t eaten since early yesterday and if it was up to me I wouldn’t have eaten at all. The heaves were painful, the bile tasted nasty. My hearts going to give out if I don’t fry my brains first

What's going on man? If you need someone to talk to, I'm around. :)

I’m the cause of my own divorce. I’ve made the biggest mistake in my life, there doesn’t seem to be a way to fix it. I want to give up on everything. @thepreposterouspanda

@Knucklez Oh man, that sucks dude. :/ Life is too fucking much sometimes.

Knucklez · 31-35, M

It is too much. I’m not strong enough to bear it either. It’s going to crush me@thepreposterouspanda

thepreposterouspanda · 36-40, M

@Knucklez I dunno man. Don't look at it as something crushing you. You're just at the bottom right now. You can always go back up, given enough time and effort. You just have to want to. :)

It’s so hard to breathe. @thepreposterouspanda

@Knucklez Have you ever tried any deep breathing techniques? That's one of the things that helped me stop drinking, and still helps with my anxiety to a big degree.

Knucklez · 31-35, M

No and I don’t know any@thepreposterouspanda

@Knucklez All right, this is the way to do it. Breathe in 4 seconds through your nose, hold the air for 4 seconds, and then breathe out of your mouth like you're blowing through a straw and do it slowly. Just keep repeating the pattern until you feel more calm. :)

I find it helps if I close my eyes and visualize the numbers as I do it too!
