Yeah, I think talking to others (whether it be online or face to face) really does seem to help me. I already talked to someone else on Facebook this afternoon, and it did make me feel a little better. So sometimes getting all those negative feelings out does help. No matter how bad it might be. And you're right Stone Marker, I have noticed that I really have been feeling better in recent months. And you have told me you've noticed that before too. Which I quite agree with. If it's any consolation, I'm in a MUCH healthier frame of mind than I was at this time last year. And the entirety of 2014 for that matter. I do feel myself getting better, I do see it. I just wish I didn't hit such tremulous water so many times. And I agree, parents have no reason to judge us. Just because we've lived with them all these years, doesn't mean they know what's best for us. They don't know what it's like, even though my family DOES have a history of mental illness. Just like with strangers, they don't know what it's like to be in my shoes. Unless they've gone through with it themselves. It is also good to know that I'm not alone either. So that helps too.
Thank you for your support and for your understanding. As far as this forum goes, I'll still stick around here. But I can't guarantee I'll be super active. I'm having computer problems and can't check up on here much anyways. And if I need to talk to you, I'll definitely do that. Though I'll try to keep it more private, like at the other forum. Talking about it does help me feel better most of the time anyways. Let's hope this path smooths out within the next few days too.
