What's Bothering You?

The fact that I'm a failure. I'm on disability for Asperger's and I just feel ****ty about it. I feel like maybe I could've done more w/ my life. I hate feeling like a leech. God, kill me, PLEASE!
you're not a failure. you're doing your best and if your best isn't good enough for someone then they can **** off.


I'm feeling overly lethargic today. I didn't even have the energy or motivation to let my dog out this morning, I had to have my dad do it. the only thing I've been able to do is play HHP while lying in bed in my dark room. my mom is actually worried about me, she's asked multiple times if I need to go to the ER. idk what I need at this point, I'm just so stressed out about everything I think my body is collapsing under all the stress and anxiety.

I have to go to my internship again tomorrow and it's killing me bc I really love working with them but that 70 mile round trip causes me an insane amount of stress. it would be different if I lived in that city but I don't. idk what to do. this is a great opportunity for me and the fact that I get tired/stressed easily is ruining it.

I just want to cry.

If I could only be allowed on that and don't feel the constant pressure to have a job, tbh be glad it's able to get, here it's lowkey impossible for those conditions :/

But yeah you are definitely not a failure!
 
I barely even slept last night. Didn't get to sleep until late, woke up every hour of the night. My sleeping habits have been so bad lately. I used to go to sleep early and sleep solidly for 8+ hours. Now I can barely get 6 hours of sleep. I used to be able to function on low amounts of sleep, but not anymore. There's nothing obvious on my mind right now that could be causing it. I just don't know what to do to get a good night's sleep anymore.
 
tired of being tired. also tired of people asking me what's wrong when 1) I don't know what the frick is wrong, and 2) I clearly have my RBF on, so leave me the frick alone :)
 
Burnout from work has been awful. Currently on leave due to it, and now finding out that I may not be able to take my planned time off in December now because of it.
 
Have been so ill with a cold for over a week now. I’m congested and coughing and it’s interfering with my sleep. Doesn’t help that I haven’t had a day off during that time either, and today is a day filled with lectures 😭 I just want to rest and sleep
 
gonna ask my GP for a psychiatrist referral soon because I think I have ADHD and don't really know how to approach it. I feel like a lot of my mental health experiences over my life have been explained away from me just being a fidgety & anxious kid, but there's so much more to it. idk just hoping I don't get dismissed again. I'm gonna try to be firm about it, but I am nervous. I've realized I can do a school assignment last second and pull an all nighter, but the same doesn't really apply for work-work.
I think it's just the whole process that's really overwhelming me. It seems like a lot. I feel like I'm just being a lot.

edit tldr; mental health is a nightmare in the u.s.

So I’m trying to get WiFi and the only service available that I know of that is available in my area is “Comcast” and I do not want them. They are a terrible service and I need to find a different one or I’ll be going to a hotel to use their WiFi to download a game.

get my ADHD meds from my regular Doctor who is just a family practitioner who specializes in woman’s health. I went in for depression and after trying different meds one of which gave me bad anxiety, but I mentioned it helped me concentrate. One of the uses for them was for ADHD, so he prescribed me adderall on a hunch. I was very skeptical at first because I didn’t think I had it, but it helped with my depression and anxiety. The more research I did about it made me realize I do have it, so many things made sense and clicked into place for me. There are a few different types I have the inattentive type which doesn’t have the hyperactive part. Anyway, I hope any of this is helpful to you.
 
Also mail sucks here, like okay I paid enough customs stop forgetting it at the bottom of a container every damn time.

It really does!! I’ve seen a lot of people with the inattentive leaning adhd seem to have the same experiences with getting medication for anxiety/depression first. It makes me feel more confident in asking about it for sure.
