Oh right, mental illness is complicated. Mine started as a teenager with anxiety and eating disorder and then i had a breakdown at 15 yrs old. Ive never been able to cope very well, but i always went to college and work until i became too severe to work

You just got to be sensible and practical, because you dont want to give up at age 26 but at same time you dont want to end up at the severe end either. Its really up to you and what you can manage with work.

Thank you for your kind words

I think the issue is more the work environnment that is toxic

I feel exploited, disrespected

If I was working in a better place I think I would be okay

I just need to not do a stressful job I think

I worked in a very toxic environment before. It messed me up pretty badly. I think it’s a good idea to look for a new job. Your mental health is very important. I’m sorry you’re struggling

I’m not okay at all today too. I was feeling and looking better before but a woman is trying to ruin my life because she keeps comparing me to her daughter although I don’t know who this person is. They make me feel awful inside my mind.

I’m sorry you lived something like that

It’s awful to be compared like that

I hate that when my mom compares me to incite me to do something

I’m sorry you’re mom compares you to someone it must be difficult to deal with. I try to tell myself I’m a good and kind person even though I would like to make my parents proud and not worry about me.

Yes, it makes me really angry when she does that

That’s good, you should think like that

It’s a great thing to be a good person

I get you would like to not worry them, maybe try to take your medications without fail every day to avoid them to worry

I used to be more talkative and sensitive before, and to my parents more caring. These days I don’t talk as much or talk like a child and I can’t sit down and relax. It makes me sad I can’t be how I used to be.

You can’t be how you used to be but you can try to improve yourself if you wish to
