Struggling in the evenings mentally

Been a hard week on me mentally

Struggling to do the school run cos I am not wanting to see anyone or interact.

Having to go to birthday parties lately with my son too which hasn’t helped. As I feel at the moment I just can’t be sociable.

In the evening when I’m not busy and everything goes quiet I feel low and a bit anxious.

Anyway thought I would share. Maybe someone out there can relate.

Yes I can definitely relate. I stay busy to keep my brain from running me over but I hate being around society.

Yes @sweetpotatopie

At my son’s school I find some parents stuck up snobs. Some form cliques. There is bitchness.

It’s just horrible. I don’t like being part of it at all.

Yeah I keep to myself as much as possible. I’m always the one in the back with my headphones on so no one talks to me.

I can only deal with people in short amounts and not personably. I get voices talking to my mom. I can’t complain lately my voices have been manageable. Hope you navigate things well

I struggle so bad in the evenings, I thought I had Sundowners (which I brought up with my pdoc and he ruled it out). My symptoms seemingly get worse at night, and I just wanna sleep the night away to deal with it :pensive_face: so I can relate

I can’t imagine raising kids with this illness. You all should be commended. I feel like I have my plate full coping alone sometimes. Evenings are definitely rough for me though because when the rest of the house goes to sleep my voices go into full drive and I sometimes get visuals.
