Hello everyone,
I just wanted to post this message out of courtesy and so that I wouldn’t spend time worrying anymore about the fact that I’m not managing to post on here in the way I’d hoped at the moment.
Recently I made a post about not recognising my own emotions and therefore struggling to regulate them. I receive many helpful responses but I simply cannot reply. I would like to, but I can’t. I did do a small update to say that I think, emotionally speaking, that there is more going on for me at the moment and that I was going to seek some help. Well I am doing exactly that.
In spending time looking for support, I’m finding that anything I can worry about, I am worrying about. I’m actually spending a lot of time worrying about my lack of replies here (entirely coming from me and not you kind people on here). I then come to do the replies or join in on other posts and completely freeze. Which then makes me feel bad and reduces my self-esteem etc. and the cycle continues.
Low mood, low self-esteem and anxiety are hugely out of balance at the moment, so I’m going to take a break from being on here for a while whilst I process and work through this current state of being.
I’m very grateful to the community for all the support, understanding and kindness shown. I’m also grateful for the fact that everyone gets a chance to be their real selves in a place like this. As such, I will be back at some point, but I think it’s time to reduce the number of potential sources of worry and time to focus on getting better again.
Take care everyone. Bye for now.
