What are your addictions/psychological issues and how do you manage them, if at all?

I'll start: hardcore alcoholism and insomnia (which is a symptom, I know, but it's an ongoing thing no matter what I do). I don't really do anything to help it, but I do have a hell of a tolerance.

Anxiety disorder. Not social or gender related.

Is it generalized anxiety?

Do you take anything for it (if that isn't too forward a question)?

Repression mode - At this point I had no idea what was wrong

Anything to fill the void
weed erryday
heavy ssri's
drank when I could, at least every weekend
4-5 coffees worth of caffeine a day.
smoking cigs every hour or so.
Tried shrooms 3 times
ativan for a month
fucked around with opiates at some point


Funny, I passed on coke at one point, may have been the setting.

Currently - after getting some help
1-2 cups of coffee
Moderate ssri's
Weed when the depression kicks in hard core.


Currently thinking about getting a script for some type of fast acting anti-anxiety, as I still get the occasional panic attack out in public.

Yes.

>Do you take anything for it (if that isn't too forward a question)?
No. I probably should. And this isn't a tumblr hugbox, you can ask or call people out freely here.

>>7794184
I pride myself on politeness and courtesy. Having lurked for probably 8 years now, I see no benefit to being an edgelord who offends people as a matter of course.

Anywho, meds did nothing for me(so I quit them) and everyone I know who started taking anxiety meds turned into a self-interested cunt, so you may be better without.

Coke isn't anything to write home about. I tried it for about a week and it was roughly comparable to snorting pseudoephedrine (which I did for a semester my junior year of college). Pretty similar to coffee, to be honest.

There are so many lolpics from 4chan I want to send my friends where the humor is too dark. This is one of them.

That's commendable, but I find the no-nonsense straight to the point discourse on this site very refreshing. It makes it easier to be honest about oneself.

>>7794251
I like to think that we can do both concise, to-the-point speech and politeness, but maybe I'm just a hopeless idealist. It probably doesn't help that I write in Dickens sentences.

Hey, I think that was the summer I found this shit hole, To bad this board wasn't around back then.

Yeah, I had been told it wasn't that great by a irl friend too. I also hate things being in my nose.

>>7794247
eh.
>>
>>7794327
I used to snort codeine too, and that shit was way too awesome. Do not recommend because I've got some friends who had to drop out and go to rehab for opiates (one was boofing oxy).

But psychedelics are the shit. Shrooms in particular always put me on the right level and set me away from alcohol for a while. Been looking to try DMT for some time, but I don't have the balls to order all the shit I need to make ayahuasca and I can't find anyone who sells smokeable DMT.
>>
>>7794359
Oh damn, what where you trying to deal with? Or just wanted to fuck shit up.

I tried 2.5 grams last time and I had horrid paranoia. Really fucked me up too. I also found out later, things like acid and mushrooms need to be taken in higher does for people on SSRIS. So it makes it more expensive.

DMT sounds fun, No idea on how to make it.
>>
>>7794359
>snorting codeine
Straight up codeine or like 30mg codeine 500mg paracetamol? I take it on an empty stomach for a better/fast acting high. How does snorting it go?
>>
Diagnosed with BPD, severe MDD, AN, SIB, OCD, and Gender Dysphoria.
Unable to manage it in my normal ways due to commitment... So I dunno, just trying to come to terms with it, I guess. Seeing a therapist who I like, and taking meds, which haven't done a whole lot for me. That's about it.

Addiction to mdma/ecstasy. I'm a very lonely person than adores physical affection. At this point convinced that I'll always be alone due to me being a tranny. Popping pills is the only time I'm told I'm loved and I get to be held. It's ruining my life but to me it's worth it because at least I get to be held.

Started to really fall for this girl, I'd been with an abusive guy for a year before that and with this girl it was the first time I'd been stable. Happiest I've ever been. The last two days of our relationship was the first time I did ecstacy. After that she ghosted me and I never heard from her again. I started doing it daily at that point. The comedowns would make me feel as low as I'd ever been. Being on pills was the only thing I enjoyed. Being so lonely and getting love and affection from people while on it was what I was addicted to. It gave me fits a few times. Ended up robbing people, borrowing off people, lying to get money, stealing anything I could to sell to buy more pills and mdma. I got kicked out of my hostel during this time and became homeless again. I've only done 2 pills in 2017. Mdma almost ruined my life

I have been diagnosed with type II bipolar disorder and dysthymia. Years ago, it was completely out of control and I failed out of college and attempted suicide. Nothing helped until I found a peer-run wellness and recovery center that I started going to. Instead of people that had only read about my illness in books, it was a building full of people with their own lived experience with either mental illness or substance abuse, all supporting each other.

Now, seven years later, not only has it been years since my last hospital visit, but I'm working at that center now and I'm close to becoming a certified peer recovery specialist.

So, hang in there /lgbt/. The best advice I can give, from my own experience, is to find a support network wherever you can. Isolation is, in me and almost everyone I've worked with, the biggest guarantee to spiral, and spiral quickly.

>hardcore alcoholism and insomnia
are you me.
I'm just the same.
>>
I'll admit that I'm probably an alcoholic. I went through rehab twice for heroin addiction so drinking is the least of my problems.

To offset the effects of alcohol I exercise like a demon.
