    Anyone else young and burnt out?

    I'm 24 years old and have been exhausted for years. I should be in my prime, making progress towards a sustainable future and living my best years; instead I struggle to get through what most would consider an easy day. I should be fearless and adventurous, instead I feel like a vulnerable kid...

    Isolation, intrusive suicidal thoughts

    Thanks for the replies. I've been a lot better than when I started this post. I've decided to give up on my job. I thought my dad would be disappointed but he was surprisingly supportive. I'm also going to go to school while I work and plan to see a therapist through my school and work on my...

    Isolation, intrusive suicidal thoughts

    Severe social anxiety/panic attacks in some social settings. It's a work in progress, trying to simply stand stable on my own two feet right now. I've been over this idea in my head so much. And I became set on it. And now it's falling apart and I feel stuck. My parents are moving next year to...

    Trigger warning. Struggling with suicidal thoughts

    I'm in desperate need of some kind heart on here to give me advice. I really need some help changing beliefs about myself and my life. I work 45 hours a week alone, come home to a silent house of no social contact, go to sleep early (to cope with chronic fatigue) and wake up for it to start all...

    Isolation, intrusive suicidal thoughts

    I definitely see what you're saying. I've been over a lot of what you said in my head. I've thought about moving back with my parents, but it would be such a huge step backwards. I would have to give up my job because the commute would be too much. And it's hard to find good jobs out there. I...

    Isolation, intrusive suicidal thoughts

    Sorry I really am not sure if this is the most appropriate section. But I just need some help and advice. Quick background: I'm 23 and I work 45 hours a week at a construction job where I work by myself. I moved to the city I currently live in to get closer to my girlfriend about a year ago. We...

    Wanting to date and convert a non-believer

    I've had a new coworker who started about a month ago. She said she likes me but feels like she would be a bad influence for me because she sees me as a good person and sees herself as a bad person. She considers herself a Christian, but from what I can tell, doesn't live as one or seem to have...

    How can I only associate with Christians

    I'm getting tired of making friends with people who don't live the same lifestyle as me and I'm deciding today to not let it happen anymore. People who aren't Christians (or don't live as one) keep trying to be my friend or girlfriend and it's sometimes stressful. My goal is to just make friends...

    What Are Your Favorite Breeds Of Dogs?

    I've always loved golden retrievers. But I have a corgi mix now and he's awesome!! I do miss having a medium-sized dog though and I really want to get another golden retriever. My golden retriever was one of the kindest living beings on earth. I wish I could kiss his nose one last time lol

    That is what I'm trying to do. Unfortunately there isn't much healing happening.

    Need advice about relationships...

    What if someone doesn't mean anything to me until I try something with a new person? That's my concern because like I said it's been a little over a year and though I'm starting to feel a bit happier, my feelings haven't changed and I haven't found someone who catches my interest the way she...

    Nutrition & Mental Health

    That is something I hear a lot, but I don't think I've experienced that. What kind of exercise would be best? I usually mix lifting with cardio, but I plan on more cardio :)

    Need advice about relationships...

    That is what I thought. It doesn't seem right to me. It wouldn't really be practice though; it would be more of a short experiment to see what happens to my feelings. It's possible that I do feel something and can move on to be with her. That would be the ideal situation. But it's also possible...

    Nutrition & Mental Health

    Thanks Look Up :) that would be the purpose of the Whole30. Mostly a somewhat restrictive experimental diet for me to test what is going on. I also am going to get tested for food allergies. I am taking 5000iu liquid vitamin D3 everyday right now. I did this before and got my levels tested and...

    Nutrition & Mental Health

    In my seemingly endless research of solutions to mental health issues, I've found that diet makes a much bigger difference than I used to think. I have anxiety and depression, both pretty bad though the depression is more in waves. I've found that a diet completely cutting sugar out 100% (except...

    Please pray for God to work in me

    I really want to be a better person. I don't want to be resentful, angry, arrogant, jealous, bitter, and overly-aware of my own issues. I want to be grounded, aware of my own self and actions at all times, humble, rational in thoughts and emotions, kind and loving toward everyone, and patient...

    Need advice about relationships...

    I need help regarding the direction of my life... mostly my love life. I feel stuck in my past. I still have feelings from my last attempt at a relationship and time doesn't seem to have helped much, now that it's been a little over a year. She seemed to have moved on pretty quick so I think my...
