I was approached by 2 teenage boys while I was on my way to a friend’s house and they asked if they could pray for me, and I said yeah because I believe also in God and I need all the help I can get when I’m about to get on the road 🫩. After they prayed they asked if I wanted to check out their thing on Sunday for young adults and I said sure, so they asked for my number to give me the details. The whole time I didn’t know what their religion was, and only found out after looking up the address of the church that they texted me. I only go to Catholic/Christian churches, so I don’t really want to go anymore or get texts and calls from them. How do I politely tell them that?

So I’m on the fence about selling my PlayStation to get back some control in my life fiscally.

I’m not in a crazy amount of debt but I have been made insolvent before, so I know what’s it’s like when people are just chasing money from you, and all that jazz.

But I’m like this cash can create a buffer, pay off my credit card, or pay 4 months towards my contracts so I’m just not sure if it’s the wisest decision.

I do also have an Nintendo Switch 2 what I seem to enjoying playing more anyhow.

I, 21M, have always struggled with deadlines, being on time, discipline and sleep schedules to the point that it has pretty much ruined my life.

I consitently achieve below my talent, and I pretty much have had trouble studying for extended periods of time forever. Like, I am able to sit and study for 5-6 hours at best, even when the exam is the next and I haven't studied a single thing.

It wasn't an issue until college because I had always been able to get by fine without studying particularly much, but after entering college and having to study for competitive exams and stuff I still can't seem to sir for extended periods. Even if I have 1 or 2 days where I'm able to study for a good amount of time. I will go back not doing shit after that.

I always always struggled with getting to places on time. Iam always late despite getting the notion I should start leaving earlier. But I just end up staring at my phone and doing nothing.

I don't sleep enough. Even if I'm dead tired I still prefer staring at my phone even if there's nothing interesting on there. It's like my brain just doesn't want to shut off and keep staring at my phone.

I have moments where I feel really positive and get some motivation to improve my life but that lasts a day or 2 maximum and then I lose all motivation and feel despair.

Even if I have a job interview next day and i rwally want to do well I just end up wasting most of my time.

I have massive self esteem issued.

I have been to therapy 3-4 a couple of years back times but ADHD wasn't really brought up at all. So I don't think I have adhd. But I just want to know if there might be a possibility.

Even during my childhood I kept up late at nuhht fantasizing and thinking abiut stuff, before I got a phone. It's like my brain always been addicted to stimulation since I was born.

I have had spells of good grades in my childhood where i did put some extra effort into studying, but it has been so tough since covid. I am addicted to my screen, never sleep enough, keep fucking up my life. I desperately want to be successful in life, but I keep botching every chance I get. And I run away every time things get tough or my probability of success looks uncertain.

I don't want to live like this.

If my condition doesn't resemble adhd, but is a mentality problem, then how should I go about it?

I'm sorry if this is vague because I dont want to go into details of what happened. But I blame everyone who was involved. I blame the perpetrator, the person who defended it and called me a jealous liar, the friends that i lost because they didnt believe me. The friends and the perpetrator don't mean much to me. But the second person I'm for some reason the most mad at. I guess I expected more from them given their role.

But theyre otherwise living a good life, at least displaying one. They're christian. They're in a public service field, caring for people who need the extra care. Their tiktok reposts are about anti ice and pro love and kindness. I dont get it. They were vile to me. Ive been going through severe depressive episodes for months because of what happened to me, some resulting in hospital stays, 2 voluntary and 2 involuntary. But theyre so pro mental health and being kind and loving one another. Why not me? Why didn't they hear me out or display any of that love and kindness and sympathy to me?

My mom has always had mental health issues when I was growing up, but this past year they have gotten much worse. It started with her randomly leaving to go live with some guy off the internet, then to her living with homeless people, she came back and then tried to break into my neighbors house twice, and then claimed to not remember doing it, she then was giving random men our address. She also physically hurt my brother and my sister. Then it got even worse she started talking to herself, like having hour long conversations just talking to herself like she was talking to someone who wasn’t there, she would even deepen her voice say something then respond back in her regular voice. She said she could see this person as well but there was no one there. Today I thought maybe asking if she was ok and who she was talking to would maybe snap her out of it, (keep in mind I’m 20 years old, and have no experience dealing with a person like this) I just wanted to snap her out of it, maybe make her realize that she isn’t talking to a real person just to herself, she at first seemed normal and said she hasn’t been talking at all, I then responded and said but I could hear you talking, she then flipped completely changed she got super angry and said “ if you lie to my face again little girl your going to regret it” while she was standing like she was about to lunge at me, so I left the house so i didn’t escalate the situation more. I’m just at a loss my siblings and I feel unsafe in the house worried she might do something because she’s completely unpredictable right now. She has called the police saying we are locking her up and we have never done that it’s impossible to be locked inside our house, she has threatened to ruin my dad and his family lives, she’s been saying crazy lies about everyone to her family and random people online. I don’t know what to do, any advice would be greatly appreciated. I want to get her committed to a mental hospital but that has to be voluntary or she has to commit a crime. But every time she has committed a crime she has only been there for a couple days to a week and then they send her back home.
