Feel help: I feel like I am trapped in a mental prison. - Help.com

Well, take a chance do somthing you would of never done.

Your dangling a carot, need more info.

Well, there is one place you never can escape, except in your dreams, and it is your mind. So dream yourself out of it.

you sound like me when i was there. can’t leave the house, anxiety, panic attacks, don’t know who you are. i find buddhist psychology explains a lot of that. it helps me at least.

Moving is tough. Starting over is a challenge. Hang in there.

i have agoraphobia too. buddhism helps me see the illusion that it is.

I can’t realy help you, but I can say again what i said earlier, Dream your slef out of your mind.

buddha was one of the smartest atheists.

it’s not a religion. :)

I think maybe u need to have a long hard think what you want from life and take things in tiny steps. Push urself to go out and meet new people and there should be good results from that.

I don’t know if it could help, but for me, I always have an easier time with things if they’re for someone else’s benefit. If I’m trying to make positive changes for myself, I can always find a way to shirk it, and then just feel like crap for not taking care of myself so then i feel worse and on and on and on. But maybe, if you’d make plans with others? So you’d HAVE to go out? Or signing up to volunteer somewhere, so you’d know that others needed you, maybe it would be a reason to go, other than for yourself. It sounds like you don’t think much of yourself, maybe, and though you SHOULD, I know from experience that it is hard.

People with Bi-polar will not get well without medication no matter how hard you try to over come because it is a brain disorder.
