Don't know exactly how this works but I assume it's just a way for us to introduce ourselves and feel that there are people out there feeling the same way.
So I'm 20 years old and I'm a saxophonist currently studying music at University. I got really injured about 9 months ago and couldn't perform or practice, which led me to developing severe anxiety. It later caused anorexia (which i'm almost fully recovered yay) but now some body dysmphorphic disorders and depression. But, I guess once you have one of those mental illnesses you can feel how many others seem to lead to one another. So I've been trying everything in my power to get better, seeing a psychologist, went on medication for a bit (but now off it), positive books and thinking (well trying haha) and wanting to get my life back together. It's ruined too much of my health, my relationships and my life, so I'm fighting to get better :) If anyone has had some positive experiences with this website after using it I'd love to know.
I feel the exact same way :( Ive been with this beautiful amazing person for 2 years and for the last 5 months been struggling depression and he is literally on the point of break because he just can't handle it. Its practically putting him into a space of depression because I just don't even think about emotions or my actions, and it's put its toll on the relationship.
It's so hard knowing you're trying to fix yourself for everyone else and it absorbs you, and as you try so hard you end up ruining it.
I just give up on life being so difficult when everyone out there is making it look so easy.
This has ruined my relationship with my boyfriend (we are almost on the point of break up) just because too much has happened in such a small time frame. I want to just get back to not over thinking EVERYTHING, and to wanting to be around people and enjoy life as much as I used to.
Plus, no more heart palpitations and fast breathing. Trying to breathe normally is my trickiest goal so far.
Im a student currently studying music, so listening, performing and writing music is something I do everyday. Music has the ability to induce emotions and to literally change and activate parts of the brain.
I completely support music therapy because it has so many advantages and no disadvantages. If it doesn't work for you, you were still able to listen to music :)
I love music, as a hobby and a profession. Its the only universal language we have in the world
I've been trying breathing techniques for days, relaxation and mediation but my heart still feels like its beating through my chest. I can't breathe in deeply, I run out of breathe after 2 seconds of trying to slowly breathe in and out.
Plus Im a musician, I can barely practice because I have no air flow.
Any ideas or methods to try???
