Sunday scaries kicking in big time. Built a game plan, got my action list set, and still fighting a panic attack. I am overwhelmed with everything in my life right now. I function but barely. I am one wrong move or unforeseen crisis away from shaking in the corner. Then the self-loathing kicks in. Every single mistake, every every wrong turn is magnified. I entirely blame myself for all of this. It deepens. The next crisis may make me a failure as a provider, then I fail as a dad.

I can't realistically go through retail hell again. I can't mentally handle what handling customers does to me. It drives me insane. All the world wants is retail, customer service, jobs where sitting isn't allow. When does it stop? How long is it going to take to get my covered desk job?

For God's sake, stop treating their interpretation as reality after you pretend to believe them.

I don’t know if this exactly fits here but I need to get it off my chest because it’s making me anxious. My sister is having a really hard time getting out of an abusive relationship. She’s legally divorced but seems very attached by texting him. He also won’t let up and keeps pestering her. I am so worried because I saw what the relationship did to her, mentally and physically. And even witnessed the physical abuse too. I’ve tried to support my sister as much as I can but idk what to do now

Gauging interest in a virtual men’s group for early to mid-career guys looking for an outlet…it would be weekly and a small group to start. I work in the mental health space and am surprised how hard it is to find something like this, so trying to build it myself. Drop a comment or DM if this is something you’d show up for!
