| A guy I dated multiple times and never want to date again is my friend now. But I think he has become obsessed. Hes admitted multiple times how much he loves me, he wants to buy me gifts, etc. I said I loved him as a friend. Hes ok with that but I'm the only one for him. I feel like I should block h... |

| I'm on a new medication soon. It's for anxiety. I'm sort of scared to go on another medication. I'd rather not say what it is. Just saying it stresses me out. Hopefully it will make me feel less anxious though. I might switch from abilify to something else. I feel very treatment resistant. I dislike... |

| I haven't really felt great in a while. Like not a stable great. Its always so tense. I'm hoping my medication can help. I've been taking it consistently. For me I just have a bad feeling a lot. Sometimes I just cant relax. Lately I feel like I've been causing household tension. I talk too much some... |

| I feel so awkward lately plus I wish I didnt take medication. I talk too much and too little at the same time. I have unhealthy coping methods. People think I'm weird. I'm not getting a long with my family that well. They dont understand and get mad at me for stuff that's hard for me. Like I'm told ... |

| I take 7.5 mg of abilify everyday. It's not a hard thing to do. I just dont like having to worry about it and having so many appointments. I like that it works but I want to learn how to do it myself. I guess mental illness isnt temporary though. Everyone in my family is forcing me to take my pill. ... |

| I'm so annoyed by my identity. I need to feel attached yet I'm not. I don't know who I am fully. I feel like I'm not who people think I am. I dont know but I feel as if I'm just a soul in my body. I control my body but it's not really mine. I technically feel like I'm possessed honestly. Or that I'm... |

| I have so much shame. It's a bit overwhelming. I feel ashamed of who I am. Its partly because people around me get annoyed with me constantly. I want to change how I am. Also I am told to not feel shame by the same people who get annoyed. It doesnt really help. I feel like people do not like me. I'm... |

I do not really want that. I want to have freedom. But instead I have close supervision. My sister hangs out with her f... |

| I really have a hard time with inner reflection and I do not like talking to people. I can't open up ever because it feels wrong to tell doctors and people about how I feel. It feels like it would be intrusive to open up and it would cause a bad feeling. But it can get to be too much and I can't eve... |

I went out with my support worker yesterday. She took me out for food and shopping. I had a great time until we were shopping.
I ended up pooping myself. Everyone could tell. But she was good about it. I hated myself yesterday. |
