Discussion Wondering if it's possible for me to accept my illness/pain

[symphony]

I don't think I'll ever recover. Starting to more seriously doubt that I'll ever ctb too. What's that leave left? Acceptance, I guess. Learn to live with this shit. With chronic, unending depression and anxiety. Have any of you managed that, or are trying that?

I tried but i can't and won't survive with a physical disability and persistent problems like depression and anxiety, that's just enough to tip the scales towards ctb.

I have to try it too. At the moment committing suicide is sadly/luckily (?) no option. My Depression, my BPD, my Add are chronical. I tried many therapy and medicine. But I suffer. I must find another way to accept my mental illness and to find a way to cope with it. So yes, I am on the same road like you........ Thank you for your thread.

Yeah. It sucks to try to accept but here we are. It helps to not think too far into the future. To stay present and just work with the now/short term instead of thinking about doing this forever. That's a deep dark rabbit hole.
