I have not been on my phone and phones stress me out. I feel like people are going to call me just so they can say mean things to me.

My inner monologue is the worst. I think it's because I missed my meds for 3 days. Im feeling like people hate me and I cannot stand it right now. I feel like I have no support because people just do not understand my feelings. I cannot explain anything properly to my family or friends. It's very scary to talk to them sometimes. I dont like talking. I open up sometimes and people get worried.

Would you like to talk?

People get worried when they hear you're dealing with s**t beyond their experience. My experience has been pretty f****d up so I probably won't get worried like that.

Yes. Thank you. I'm feeling like a burden lately.

I hope that feeling passes. You don't seem like a burden, although I know sometimes it's harder to believe that about one's self than it is about others.

What's weighing on you tonight?

Thank you. Tonight I just feel anxious and like I will never be independent

I live with my parents and I don't know if I'll ever manage long-term independence. It's stressful to consider how I might manage and it's stressful to consider that I might not ever manage.

Do you live somewhere you can get support besides your parents? Sometimes a case worker or similar can help with transitioning to living independently.

I'd offer to smoke with you but I don't know how to attach that to my post. :nerdy:

Yeah. Independence seems scary. I have never even had a job interview. I forget to shower or brush my teeth. I cannot cook. I cannot use a can opener even. I have difficulties with cutting with a knife. I like to sweep though and I know how to do laundry. I also know a lot about many different topics and people like that about me. I could get support and I qualify for it. I feel so scared about it though.

Thanks.

If I had to live off of my own cooking I'd end up eating nothing but burritos, tacos, spaghetti, fried rice and fried noodles. Those dishes are at about the limit of what I can accomplish without struggling to pull the pieces of the task together.

Can easily understand the limitations of trying to pull some kind of a diet together . You seem to have a better variety than I do . But am very limited in my dexterity . Can be frightening to be on your own .

They're all basically the same thing. Veggies and meat cooked together in a pan with spices served on or in some sorta starch.
