Oh how I love waking up so sore I can't get out of bed nor can I move my head in any direction because of my back and neck.

I really just hate myself and I'm tired of staying alive when there is nothing to do, no point to anything, and none of the normal things to do appeal to me at all so I really would rather just sit here and rot on a chair hoping the only thing I ever found enjoyable will become enjoyable again eventually.

There's nothing much I can do but offer my comfort. Maybe you can try doing things that seem exciting, try doing a new hobby or try doing old hobbies that used to be fears? I wish you well!

I've been through these funks more times than I can remember. Unfortunately the only comfort I can give is that it'll pass eventually. (Sorry if that sounded bland, that wasn't my intention.) Until then I'm wishing you all the best and I hope you can find something exciting to spice your life up again soon. Sending you support!

Guess what?
Last week, it dawned on me that my sickness might've actually been covid.
I thought it was a cold at first. That it'd go away after a couple days at least. Then one night I had so much trouble breathing, I couldn't fall asleep right away. I couldn't taste my food. Couldn't smell anything. My usual sick medicine didn't work well.
Fortunately, my sense of taste and smell returned and only the coughing lingers. But gosh, it was awful.
What a month so far. Right before Christmas, too. lol >.<

Why does every Windows update keep on making Yahoo as my default browser extension? I even have it blacklisted, it makes no sense! Update: So with every update it removes the blacklist, adds Yahoo, and makes it the default browser because it thinks it knows better than I do. Great.

Not a true vent, but... when you already have a limited palette, and half the stuff you eat isn't interesting you any longer. x_x All I like eating nowadays are noodles / ramen, pasta, chicken wraps, cereal, mashed potatoes, rice... and really that's about it.

Going unheard and completely talked over and having any point i bring up shut down before I can even finish a full sentence makes me go full violence mode because I've dealt with it my whole life and I always shut up and dealt with it but the one time I snapped and couldn't take it anymore actually got me heard for once so now every time conflict happens I just get uncontrollably physically aggressive and can't calm down until the wave passes and I'm genuinely terrified one of these days I'm going to fly into a rage bad enough to seriously injure or kill my roommate. I wish I was exaggerating but it really has gotten that bad.
Why can't he just stop talking and let me say anything. Why does he always have to be right. Why can't he stop yelling and insulting me when he is angry before I just go ape shit for BOTH our own good. Why can't he just be nice to me anymore. His habits continue to remind me of my mom worse and worse and it triggers me an overwhelming amount.
And I just cant help but feel if I literally ruin every single relationship to the point they start abusing me after a while I probably just deserve it. I did this. This pattern is my fault. I'm too ****ed up to be loveable and everyone who tries gets corrupted. I should have killed myself years ago to just prevent everyone and myself the hassle of dealing with me when im this insufferable. No matter what I try to do, how much I work on myself, what therapy I have tried, it all still fails. Trying is futile. Some people deserve to die and I'm one of them. I cant take it anymore. I can't take knowing I'm a threat to other people if they accidentally push the wrong buttons and there's nothing that curbs my anger even a little bit until I either inflict pain on myself or someone else it finally quells itself and then I'm left feeling like a shell living with the burden of it again and feeling guilty but also resentment that other people brought me to that point to begin with. That I was just screwed up right from the start and there was nothing I could do about it and being literally tortured growing up has left me with lifelong wounds too big to heal.
No im not going to do anything to myself but I cant take this level of despair quietly anymore.
I shut up about all my problems for years because of someone on these forums who is still here. Yeah. You know who you are and actually if you read this plz go to hell for making my life so much worse because people believed you for no real reason cause I guess taking me for a liar and then making fun of a victim of abuse with ptsd and talking about me on discord was easier than ever just scrolling past my threads thanks i hate you and I'm tired of hiding what you personally did and you getting away with it xoxo.

I don’t know you very well yet, so I don’t want to make insensitive assumptions about what you’ve been through or compare myself to you.
But there are parts of what you wrote that hit very close to home for me. For what it’s worth, I’m glad you’re still here and I’m glad you’ve made it this far. I’m glad I’ve had the chance to become friends with you. I’m not good at offering comfort or support, and maybe it’s not appropriate right now, but I wanted to say something. I can delete this if you want, though.

Why can't he just be nice to me anymore. This broke my heart. I'm not particularly good at offering words of comfort or counsel, but wow, Leap, you deserve so much more kindness than life has shown you so far. I imagine it's hard to learn healthy habits and coping mechanisms when you're so regularly confronted with unkindness from the people around you. Treating so harshly someone who's a known abuse victim and trauma survivor is beyond my comprehension. Ugh. I can't say that it'll get better, because I honestly don't know. But I can say that you should not fault yourself for abusive people's ill-treatment of you. Good folk don't mistreat others - they just don't, even when they get frustrated. But bad folk like to glom onto struggling people, because it serves as an ego-boost, and gives them someone to manipulate. I think you haven't yet had a chance to live in an environment where you can thrive. Somewhere you can securely put down roots, be watered, get the sunshine you need to grow into a better person. Crappy people in your life have been holding you back in the shade; none of them have provided the patience and love you need to properly heal. That's their shortcoming, not yours. It makes me so angry that others' failure to love has you concluding you're unlovable. What a vile lie.

I know it feels so lazy quoting Saint Ambrosef here, but honestly they summarized my thoughts better than I ever could, not to mention my brain is flatlining right now. I am honestly though so angry - not at you of course Xeno, but at the shitty people in your life and the trauma they have caused you, and continue to do so. I sincerely hope that one day you'll be able to exit this situation and find yourself in an environment where you'll truly be able to grow and flourish and start to heal. I'm sorry that I can't offer much comfort - it isn't a specialty of mine unfortunately, but know that my heart goes out to you.

It makes me so angry that others' failure to love has you concluding you're unlovable. What a vile lie. Yeah... I have thought of that too- the not really finding an environment to thrive part. The problem is I just don't know where to start at this point. I can't drive because of my chiari, which already severely limits what I do. I can't find a job close to me, because either it doesn't have accommodations for if I get a migraine or something else happens, or because I need a GED and I still can't find time to just get that out of the way because there's a whole bunch of other little steps I need to take first. Several of which require time + car. Or alternatively applying for disability again but I need help with that because I haven't the faintest clue of where to start since everything changed from the last time I tried to apply and got denied even though I qualify. I rely on my roommate to do almost everything because he drives and my other friends either aren't local or also can't drive, or both. This leaves me in a stalemate because in a sick twist of irony, I can't become more independent without help! Which I have asked him for multiple times but he either doesn't feel like it or his own work schedule won't allow it to happen. Which is out of his control, but is a little frustrating regardless. Yet at the same time if he helped me, I'd do things on my own, and we could stop constantly yelling at each other or getting into fistfights about money, errands, chores, etc etc. Because really all everything boils down to is he's tired of doing everything for me and I'm tired of nothing getting done and I don't want his help if it's going to turn into this. I really feel isolated. Basically everyone I knew around me just moved away, or lost touch. I don't have anyone I can reach out to if I need something done, or if I just want a buddy to run my errands with. Or just a friend close by who has the time for me. I've had a really awful perpetual thought that if anything bad happens, the only place I'd be able to go would have to just be sucking it up, going back into the closet, lying, hiding, and begging for my mom to let me live there or something. And I don't know. If it really boiled down to that being the only place left for me to go that probably would push me over the edge for good. I don't think I could stomach living in that house and living my childhood again when I feel like I just got so close to maybe, escaping. Maybe being my own person. Maybe healing. Its probably why I'm so chronically online and why only my computer really makes me feel any better... even if it also makes me feel worse and like I'm lazy and will amount to nothing. I love the little people in my screen that say nice things to me when I am sad.

Saint Ambrosef - I know your post wasn’t for me, but I found it very comforting. I’m going to copy it and save it somewhere so I can look at it next time I start blaming myself for being unloveable. Thank you. Leapkit - I don’t have the right words to say what I want to say, but I wish I could give you a hug. (Hope it’s not too invasive of me to say that)

Im still learning how to navigate life so I have no real comfort to give besides knowing all the people above care for you. I don't know who hurt you or why. I just know that deserve to be heard, just like everyone. I don't know much about mental illness besides the few I have learned, but maybe you don't need people right now, maybe take a nice, long walk if you want? (I wanna suggest the walk across america 'cause it sounds like something to find yourself on but that's probably not the best idea).
(Also I don't know why I'm giving life advice, my biggest problum right now is I put to much syrup on my plate and now my fork is stuck to plate.)

Okay, so this first vent isn't bad depending on how you look at it.
I have a crush in somebody. Yup, me the person who hasn't had a real, genuine crush before. He's just so dang cute! And his personality; he's hilarious. He's one of the only boys that talks to me at school and we go back a few years ago. I had just moved to a new school and my best friend and I would play with him and his best friend. about 2 years ago he switched schools, and the year after that was when I realized I had a bit of a crush on him. Last year, I kinda forgot about the crush I had, since it was so small at the time. But this year I moved to the same school as him and now those feelings are resurfacing... a lot stronger than last time though. I wanna tell him how I feel, but I'm afraid that he'll reject me and say he only sees me as a friend and then everything will be awkward. Now whenever I talk to him, I can't stop smiling and laughing and I just get this intense flutter in my stomach. Sigh... This is kinda bad...
Now onto the not so nice vent. My best friend is now my ex-best friend. She's been treating me like crap lately and I've told her to stop, but she won't. She and I are in dance and she thinks that just because we moved up a team earlier than everybody else, that it makes her SO much better than everybody else. She keeps telling me what to do. She constantly tells me to watch the videos of the dances and she knows that it's getting on my nerves, but does she stop? NO! She also accused my friend of something and then when I told her not to accuse her she said it was "just a joke". Another instance where she said something was "just a joke" is when my friend's stomach was hurting, so I jokingly said "[Name], did you swallow any magnets lately?" (you could tell I was joking by my tone). And then ex-bestie says "Well, I seem to be the only logical one here" and basically saying that me and our other friend aren't smart. And when I got onto her about it, she said it was a joke and started getting nervous (her tone was serious). And one last thing, I've been going to a class in the other dance studio in town and when my secret was revealed, everybody was okay with it, even my dance teachers. But then, my ex-bestie's mom decided that she was going to tell my dance teacher it was a problem and she didn't like it. My ex-bestie is such a spoiled and entitled brat.
Anyways, here's my brothers quote of the day! "A relationship is like a fart. If you have to force it, it's probably shit."
