I can't believe I didn't find this site 'til now!

I'm a 21 year old student who's been struggling for 4 years now. It has recently flared up, and taken me by surprise as I thought I had a handle on myself. I've learnt to ask for help when I need it, but recently I feel like I don't know how to help myself anymore. I do everything, meds, counsellor, psychiatrist - but maybe I'm missing something.

It is comforting knowing that other are struggling and yet still here and trying just like me.

Comforting for me too! Welcome to the site, (((( mpal050)!

Hi. Welcome to the forums. There is also a chat room associated with this site. Check it out anytime. I look forward to getting to know you.

I will add another welcome to the forums.

I also do the same thing with the meds, pdocs, counsellors. Often I also find that isn't enough.

One thing that I find helps me a lot, is to come to this site, and just vent.

It is true that you can't see any of us, but you have found an instant family. All of whom listen very well.

Maybe the posting thing will help you too. So often it seems that in my other life, it seems like no one is listening to me.

Like I said, we all do the listening thing very well here.

Look forward to hearing more about you.

Take care
