And sometimes you can feel alone I'm the crowd but I would not like anyone to go away from this thread feeling worse. Its just a little mind cleansing exercise to me. Hope it helps someone to get it all out.

It is tough but you will be amazed at your capabilities and humility when it is your own.

From experience though I would say make time for yourself and don't try to do it all on your own. You have to remember you still have a lot of your own life to live.

"Wow. I can relate to so many of these! I've wasted my life... I'm lonely too and often cry... I've started to struggle with work... I don't love myself and can't see anyone else loving me either. This thread has kind of made me think maybe it's not just me.

It's absolutely not just you, you are not alone!

I've been reminding myself that age is but a number and it's never too late to start something you want to do "

I think that's a myth

I keep trying to live by "feel the fear and do it anyway" but... Ha"

Oh yes, I have done that before and it does feel good but then you get the fear again and get scared, gah! Well, at least other people feel the same way so it's not totally uncommon!

Put those negative thoughts to one side and chase those dreams, I settled for the easy ride and I regret it now, you're still young and you can change your destiny.x"

I follow some entrepreneurs that follow this kind of thought...almost a deathbed thought (not so cheery!) but asking yourself if you were on your deathbed would you regret not going for that opportunity, as an example!

I can't imagine this but I know this isn't covered in the media nearly enough!

In my city there's a 'menstalk' type of group, of men that supports men in mental health issues and a platform to talk, so hopefully there is something like that where you are that would help you feel comfortable talking about it. Please reach out though because you don't deserve to feel alone through this

In a strange way, it’s comforting to see how everybody’s got worries and regrets.

We all know that’s the case, but when it’s familiar names and characters from the forum, it’s quite a comfort. It can feel very isolating, thinking you’re the only one who’s putting a smile on each morning. Thank you for this thread, Tuberose x

I've spent as long as I can remember - right back to childhood - feeling as if there was something intrinsically 'wrong' with me.

The ensuing lack of self esteem/confidence and anxiety has affected everything - friendships (the few fleeting ones I've had), personal relationships, career (ha bloody ha), the way I see myself in the mirror (to the point of feeling nauseous for many years).

I've always been on the outside looking in, have never fitted in anywhere, don't seem able to navigate through the multitude of social situations others tackle with ease. They often baffle and/or distress me. And it's utterly exhausting trying to say or do what's conventionally expected/accepted - and usually getting nowhere. I know many people have viewed me as 'odd', 'weird' etc.

When I was (much) younger I used to think 'it' (feeling 'wrong') would magically sort itself out when I 'grew up'. Of course it didn't.

And now I feel completely ashamed to have written all that down.

I’m in the midst of it now, dealing with deafness, blindness, strokes, and dementia between the two of them. All I can say is I’m doing my best... and so will you.

I’ll screw up spectacularly, and regularly, and I’ll beat myself up, but if I can look back later and say I tried my hardest... then I’ll be proud of myself.

If we're allowed two and on a longer term theme, I worry that my daughter will resent the fact that my disability means I can't run around with her etc, like I did with her brother. I also don't want her to think that she caused my disability (it's pregnancy related). I don't know how I'll explain the origins of mummy's bad leg when she asks.

I totally get the anxieties other parents have expressed about their parenting

Absolutely some very brave posts ...

whatever your struggle I wish you all the love in the world ..

I’ve had my own struggle with life in the past .. I lost my mother at 4 years of age , things got pretty tough then on in .. Hated my transvestism for so many years , I became destructive .. of myself

With the help though of so many wonderful people I’ve met through life , I’ve moved away from self loathing and I now ( and for many years ) I’ve grown to like who and what I am ..

I’m not trying to say I’m “ fixed “ or that my struggle is behind me , it still lurks in the background . just want to say that I hear you all , but do please believe in the future , and that you all are so very very special

Wowee what a thread to stumble upon.. Well not so much the thread but the amazing humans sharing. What a mountain of pain, suffering, fears, desires, sadnesses, battles, adventures, stories and challenges, compassion, support, love and understanding.

What it is we overcome and travel through in life never ceases to amaze me. We become warriors ay? And each time our hearts break we learn a little more.

"I wish I could show you in your darkness, the amazing light of your being"

Me... Its my birthday tomorrow. When I was born I had a big brother waiting for me. He passed away 15 years ago. I miss him, especially on my birthdays, I miss him just there. Its just me.. and in my very bones I miss my brother.
