I hate mental health

Back to Rants & Vents

Having anxiety is evil i would be so so happy if i didn't have anxiety it actually makes my chest hurt like physically or like my throat i feel like i am choking and i dont think it will ever get better and it fucking sucks


Yknow what else fucking sucks ocd. it affects my life so much i dont think people even understand how much it affects my fucking life it is an absolute nightmare and the worst part is like i actually think id be so much a better person without it like posioning me cause id be so much more carefree but i cant and i never will be

And it pisses me off when people think i just like cleaning i dont like cleaning im fucking trapped in a cycle cause i am scared and i cant even get any more help for it on the nhs for ages so im just gonna be stuck like this until it gets worse enough they have to help me and i just don't wanna live like this

It will get better Izzy! It feels like nothing is happening now but think of how awful it used to be. Don't get me wrong it's still hard now but if it's lessened even a little bit since then I think that's something we should celebrate and be hopeful about, because it shows it CAN improve. 

You are doing amazing! And the best part is you don't let it stop you doing what you want. It's something I really super admire about you!! Love you lots Izzy, 

I hope one day u will look back on how you are now and be proud of your strength because I know I am <3 :hearts:

it's so relatable i even feel sad. especially when people make jokes about your problem, even though they know how much you struggle with it.

@𓏲ּ𝄢sleepingwillow exactly one of my old friends was like omg like i have ocd too i hate when things arent lined up and i tried to explain thats not it and she was like do you even know ur own disorder like fucking insane people can be so insensitive

anxiety is mostly due to an overactive amygdala and vagus nerve and a few other things. this includes anxiety disorders.


there is a secret hack to making your vagus nerve calm down which cools down the rest of the system: rub your ears in circular motions.

this sounds silly but there is scientifically backed evidence as to why it works. since i've learned it i have been able to head off anxiety that used to last hours. next time you feel it coming on, try rubbing your ears for one to two minutes. i think it also works on ocd compulsions at least part of the time.
