I'm stuck in my head I pray I believe in God I know he's real I'm just fighting a war in my head

I don't know why I've been in my head a lot especially today. It's like I will never be able to live on my own because disability don't pay you enough and I got disabled at an early age so I never worked enough to have enough money to be able to live on my own I don't ever want to live in a rooming ...

You don't take a knife to a gun fight...

You don't take a gun to a nuclear war. Ever so slightlyplagiarised, It would seem that my neurologist has signed up to the capitulation act, the surrender act and the humiliation act. Yesterday I reported to my neurologist that I'd like to change my DMT that was dissmissed as humbug.. they all work...

I'm so tired of feeling like I'm not good enough, worthless, alone. I'm afraid that I'll be alone for the rest of my life. Ik that if I'm alone when my mom passes that I won't be able to stop my suicidal ideation from taking over. I have borderline personality disorder and my worst fear is being alone not having anyone to help me walk through the pain that my mom passing will bring. This has been on my mind so much lately. I am honestly afraid of what will happen... I fight with my mental health the most. Besides the fatigue my depression, my borderline personality disorder and suicidal ideation is something I have always had a hard time with. Any feedback would be great.

In general I'm a very positive person and people compliment me a lot for being so positive, you always hear wiser (usually old )people say "it could be worse", and between that and MS, I've gotten through...

Fighting the sidewalk with my face.

The sidewalk won. No ice, gravel or banana peels, just me walking too fast. This is the 2nd time I've landed face first in less than a year. The 1st time I ended up with mud on my face, but this time stitches. Foot drop is not one of my symptoms, but now I wonder is it going to be? For those of ...
