I've checked into a mental health facility two times in my life. Not as bad as it used to be but I find there's still alot of stigma about it

There is but there shouldn’t be. Looking after your mental health is as important as looking after your physical health

Doing what is right in the face of being 'labeled' is an act of strength and courage. Good on ya and be well.
still thisI get attached to people way too easily and overthink everything.
Person takes a bit too long to reply to my message? Surely they must be bored of me or are just humoring me/being nice.
Person vanishes mid conversation? They must hate me or I fucked something up.
When in reality it's NONE of this. It really is all in my head. I'm trying to fix this, but it's not going well..
Oh thank you. Wise words that put a smile on my face

I’ve done the same. I completely broke when my marriage ended. Mental health services saved me. I had(like most people) my own ideas of what it would be like. It was an eye opening experience. Completely different to what I imagined, it was all positive. The staff and fellow patients were amazing
Definitely, not like the depressive prisons that movies show. Nothing but good honest help

I can crack my fingers and toes
I can crack my knees, ankles, elbow occasionally, back and neck. Along with my fingers and toes. I'm not sure if it's a good thing I'm able to do this at my age
The neck and back make me cringeI can crack my knees, ankles, elbow occasionally, back and neck. Along with my fingers and toes. I'm not sure if it's a good thing I'm able to do this at my age
It feels amazing to crack my back
I'll take your word for it!
I thought that was true of everyone who is strong, brace, confident, capable and together.....hmm.
is eating me alive
