Hey Pandas,vent Here.(Open)

"We all get upset from time to time—some of us more than others. Whether we’re sad about the loss of a loved one, angry at friends or family, or fearful about the state of the world, it often feels good to let it all out.

That’s because sharing our emotions reduces our stress while making us feel closer to others we share with and providing a sense of belonging. When we open up our inner selves and people respond with sympathy, we feel seen, understood, and supported.

But “sharing” covers a lot of different modes of communication. Are some healthier than others, over the long run? Science suggests that it depends, in part, on how you share and how people respond to you. Expressing our emotions often to others may actually make us feel worse, especially if we don’t find a way to gain some perspective on why we feel the way we do and take steps to soothe ourselves."-Jill suttie

I'm an oldish, disabled veteran with no family or real friends and I recently injured my back in a way that makes me even more disabled (I suddenly need a cane just to stand, forget about walking). I lost a kidney to cancer a few years ago and the other isnt doing great either. I live alone, in the middle of nowhere, a $200 cab ride from the hospital. I'm terrified I'm going to die here and nobody is even going to notice. I wish I could move, but still live paycheck to paycheck and work in my current situating is almost impossible.

I haven’t had any suicidal thoughts in a while now, but I have relapsed a few times in my battle with anorexia, luckily my boyfriend has been by my side since I first told him about my anorexia, he’s helped me and encouraged me to eat more, and he shows me a lot of patience when I’m struggling with anorexia, and he celebrates every small win with me. I couldn’t ask for a better boyfriend because he has changed my life for the better, and every day I text him I stim a bit (I also have autism and I get excited when he texts me)

I’ve learnt recently that I weigh the same as Eugenia Cooney.. (which is 73LB) only difference is I’m incredibly short (4’9) and she’s 5’7 I believe.. so it looks drastically different. I’m honestly scared for my health, I dread the doctors both for shots and getting weighed. I don’t like the idea of dying young- I’m sorry..

Don't overthink this! You'll be ok! Worry causes all sorts of weight issues wether it being overweight or underweight. I'm underweight and have battled to put weight on, I've put a stone on 14lbs and I'm over the moon, but I still have health problems. You are enough and love yourself first and everything will fall into place. Good luck x

I will never forget the day I was told that my son had died.
He was not supposed to die before me.
Dying of AFib 90 days before turning 21.
Moms die before children.
That’s the way this s**t should go.

When he loves you at your worst, you'll see what real love is! When he walks into the room and you smile a little, you're halfway there!! You'll be fine and I'm sorry everything was messed up when you were young.

Not sure if you're male or female but, if you can't say what you want to say to him/her, write a letter explaining your feelings. I know this is not without risks, but you'll never know if you say nothing. Good luck

I’m just tired. I’m waiting until I finally die but I’m not suicidal. I’m just waiting for the day Death comes to me and tells me that it’s all over and I can finally rest. Life is like a really long day and Death is the time I go to sleep after the tiring day. I’m young and not even graduated high school but I’m just tired
