I feel isolated

Hey,

I have no clue whats wrong with you or your life story, just came around this post so i am replying.

The thing is nobody is helping you cause nobody can help you.Hence as you mentioned in your post

MAN UP.

Everyone who is visiting this page probably needs help,So do I.

I am 35/m I have ptsd, depression, anxiety,ADHD and I can go on with the list( last 10 years or more)......I have never spoken to a professional or posted online out of choice because I believe that only I can help myself and I just started taking a few medicines and visited a psychiatrist a few months back for the first time .

My family doesn't even know and I haven't told them because anyone who doesn't suffer from these conditions doesn't know how we feel.So I wake up everyday put on a smiling face and start working.I work 10-12 hours a day almost 7 days a week and it might sound like a lie to you but then thats your choice.

The only person who knows a little about all this is my loving wife and I don't even want to be entirely honest with her cause I don't want to bother her with my problems.

I am owner of 3 different companies hence my working hours.My behaviour affects my 100-150 odd employees and my businesses. I have my good days and very bad days.

But, EVERY MORNING I MAN UP.

I am not here to tell you or teach you anything I just want you to know THAT WHENEVER YOU ARE AT YOUR LOWEST POINT JUST KNOW THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD WHO ARE WAY LESS FORTUNATE THAN YOU.

Read about people in INDIA, SYRIA or million other place and 3 billion other people and you will realize how blessed you are that you even have a computer and an internet connection so you can go online and express how you are feeling.

Have and hope this helps.
