I had a mental break a few days ago &amp; haven't really left my room since. But let me tell ya, this sub has saved me. It's both terrifying and comforting seeing that I share more things in common with people here on this sub than I do with my "normal" friends. It feels like a death sentence, but I'm grateful to see I'm not alone.

On a side note, my situation is fucked. I live in a huge house with 9 people, two are my ex boyfriends &amp; one is my ex best friend. Painful? Yes. Typical of me? Yes. Hearing them upstairs laughing with each other, not coming home because they're out making new friends, or just hearing other footsteps in the house while I'm moping in my room makes me skin crawl. I always make jokes about just having fomo, but its debilitating. 

I finally got a counseling appt two months out. I plan on picking up a DBT book and maybe just putting ear plugs in when I'm at home so I don't pull my hair out. 

Any advice?
