    You are like at a very senior post. You should be able to control stuff.

    Yes, I can remind you later.
    I hope it goes well, I'm nervous about it but I know I need someone to listen to me. I like my counselor but since I wasn't so honest with her, I have to be honest with someone now.
    I hope your school has as much help available as mine does and that you are able to access those resources.

    Your issues could be related to school. I think mine partly are because I'm frustrated with the grades I get because I know I could do better I just try and I lose the energy to try and I almost fail because I just give up trying towards the end of the semester and my work is not what it could be. In the beginning I'm glad to be back at school but the challenge of academics just wears me out so fast because I get annoyed with myself so easily when I do not understand things and I am not the best at asking for help (though I'm slowly getting better at it). I just can't think of SH everyday and multiple times a day, that is not healthy and neither is how negative I am towards myself. I need to somehow accept my grades as they are and accept i'm trying my best but I feel like I need something to help me focus and to give me energy because I'm so exhausted I fall asleep while doing my homework and those times add up and then i'm rushed and when I'm rushed I get mad at myself and well it just spirals out of control I guess. In the summer my problem is I get really bored and depressed because I do not really have anything to do around here. One of my cousins suggested I help out with the Stop Domestic Violence hotline but I cannot do that because there is a twelve hour training course but the problem is each volunteer has to agree to six months of helping the hotline and i'm only home a few days under four months so that won't work. I think a lot of it too for me is that i really hate myself, it might surprise people to find that out but i hate myself and love others a lot more. It sounds weird but I would rather help others and risk my own well-being for them to be better off. But I'm to a point now where I know I need some help. I just do not know a counseling place that would take me only during part of the summer or just during summers. Plus it would be hard because how do I build a relationship with a counselor when I'm only here for two of the four breaks in the semester usually? i'm not sure. I'll talk to my doctor in a couple of weeks.
    I hope you get the help you need in college. My college offers free counseling and they have a psychiatric nurse practitioner that visits once a month and the health center doctor can give out prescriptions if need be in low dosages until people can see the psychiatric nurse. I know this because I have a couple of friends that are on medication for different things. Obviously seeing the psychiatric nurse might cost money and getting the medicine might depending on your insurance but the counseling is free and that can help a lot on its own (or at least it helps me when I'm honest about things but I'm not always as honest as I should be but I've realized I can be).

    About me
    Hey all! My name is Dez, and I am a 27 year old who just graduated with my Masters in Public Health. So I basically just entered the "real world" and have to be an "adult." Ew.

    On any given day if I'm not here you'll find me napping, sitting in therapy, or watching something on Netflix. I'm trying to do this thing called "finding a hobby," so feel free to pass along your favorite books and TV shows.

    I have an interest in sexual health, especially contraceptives, the prevention of sexually transmitted infections as well as HPV and the vaccine in particular. I stand with Planned Parenthood and similar reproductive health organizations. I also have an interest in vaccines.

    I'm still basically trying to figure everything out myself, but feel free to say hello. If I don't answer right away, rest assured that I will when I get a chance! :D

As the title says, if this keeps up, I will end up back in the hospital.

My mood has been getting worse lately, especially in the month of June. I had a lot of ups and downs despite being on a ton of medications. I have been irritable and snapping at my parents for stupid things like the fact that my Dunkin order was wrong. I also had impulsive spending to the point that I had $6.14 left in my bank account by the end of the month. I have also been self harming and my suicidal thoughts...

I followed a journal prompt asking you to write a letter to your future self. I decided to write a letter to me five years from now. I kind of like how it came out so I am posting it here too. Here goes:

Dear Me 5 Years From Now,

I honestly didn't expect that you would live this long, so congratulations I guess. I hope you don't have any permanent damage from any more suicide attempts that happened between 4/12/24 and now. Maybe you're finally not feeling as suicidal...

I started writing this and then something happened and it deleted itself, so I guess I'll try to remember what I was going to say.

I was doing relatively well for a few weeks. I really was. I hadn't been self harming and had generally been feeling okay. But then it crashed again and the depression and anxiety are back with a vengeance.

This weekend I was very depressed. I spent a lot of Saturday isolating by myself and was in bed a lot. I went to bed around 7:30, 8:00...

I feel like shit.

I'm not feeling any better. I'm going to PHP/IOP every single day but it's all stuff I've heard from being there so many times and it's just not helping and nothing is helping and I don't feel any better.

I want to die still. I have a potential date range picked out if things go as planned, but maybe I'll feel better before then and I'll change my mind. There's always a chance, right? The visiting nurse took my suicide method away from me but I ordered...

2/15/24 - Today I attempted suicide. I wanted the anxiety that had been getting progressively worse throughout the month to stop. I had been making plans for a while but didn't have a specific date until I decided it would be today.
My friend found out and made me call 911. The fire department came first, then the ambulance and police. They questioned me and then I got in the ambulance where they took my vitals and have me fluids. We live close to the hospital so the ride only lasted like...
