TinyDinos Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I woke up today. Not sure if that’s a good thing yet or not, but it happened for a reason right? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s quite a bit going on, but I know it’s all in my head. It’s just a new place that I’ve never been to before, and a lot of new people and that usually makes me anxious. Even with people I know it’s still a lot since I’m mostly at my house so it’s overwhelming y’know? It’s also weird bc we’re looking for a new “home church “ since the last one was really toxic and while looking I’m having a hard time coping with the fact that I’m close to actually being an adult bc I have to like look at the adult services and I won’t qualify for the teens group anymore soon and stuff, and my moms trying to teach me how to drive, and honestly I’m just a hot mess :( 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equivalent Ways Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Thank you! It means a lot that yous say that :) also, sorry to hear that Dino. I went to new church one and it was really overwhelming.. I also was learning how to drive but was a hot mess to say the least. It’s cool though that you are here talking about it. This place seems like a good resource! 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gosh, um, I quit cuz I was disassociating too much and it was contributing to my depression and we/I deemed I had to stop for my safety. But it feels good to say out loud because it was a good choice and it was scary lol MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve literally only driven around my neighborhood once and last time we checked out a different church my mom made me park the car :( I’m so scared of driving I try to avoid practicing at all costs tbh.. my mom isn’t very good when it comes to mental health stuff, like saying it doesn’t exist and things like that, but she’s starting to worry about me and I feel bad about it but it’s kinda nice knowing that she really does care and worries about me. She noticed how negative I tend to talk about myself and situations as a whole, or assume the worst case scenario of things while we’ve practiced, and she noticed the other day how indecisive I am and how I tend to be a people pleaser. I think she’s gonna get me screened at my next physical. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
