>>7555854I've been feeling very trapped for the last several months. I've been going to college, but barely getting by because it's difficult for me to even find the motivation to get out of bed, and some days I just can't do it. I've been dealing with flashbacks and nightmares from when I was abused (physically and sexually) by my family when I was a kid. I've even started hearing things that aren't there sometimes, and I've been having suicidal thoughts almost every day. It's incredibly difficult for me to concentrate on anything because I just mentally check out so much. I feel like I'm not in control of myself and it's so incredibly frustrating.
The thought of dropping out is frightening, but I don't know how I can carry on for much longer. I have an appointment for April to look into therapy options with my doctor, but it seems so far away. I'm considering going to a walk-in support group soon if I can find one.
