Had a mental breakdown (ft. perfect Illusion)

So, I've been suffering from Depression & IBS a long time already. Today I was so fed up with everything involving my life - feeling pretty isolated, don't know where my private life is heading & career, feeling really dumb, being sick, having physical & psychological health problems.

I started crying & breaking things when nobody was at home and blasted Perfect Illusion for like an hour or so non-stop at full volume. It felt f-cking good. You can imagine it á la Marry The Night breakdown scene.

Thank you, Gaga, for giving me an outlet in life through your music & your own mental health issues.

:heart:

I feel ya :giveup: I had this mental breakdown earlier this year in the summer, so I kept playing these anti-stress songs of 4 hours long that would calm me down...in the long term I got a bit better, and the mental breakdown sort of faded away, but all I had left was anger...which made me listen to this song a LOT:

Sorry you're going through a rough patch :( let me know if you ever need someone to talk to :hug:

I had a moment like that with Marry The Night when I was feeling really low (probably along with 90% of this fanbase :ladyhaha:). Her music can be so encouraging and comforting during dark times. Sometimes her music says to you exactly what you need to hear.

Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet.

People really underestimate the emotional release Perfect Illusion has as well as other Gaga songs. It's so good for just letting out your emotions and rage. 

OT: Really sorry you have been feeling this way, I can relate a lot to feeling down about life and not knowing what direction you're going in it, but you just have to take life one step at a time and allow yourself to make mistakes/risks or we can't grow from them  I guess. Pm me if you ever want to talk :hug:

Glad you were able to find an outlet that made you feel better and get it all out :hug:

I got to stress however the importance of being able to vent your feelings and problems, to try prevent another breakdown. During the end of summer and as recent as this month I've been really bad and not really dealing with things well. I used to bottle things up a lot (and still do a certain extent) but with having breakdowns, feeling so fragile and being scared of the implications that might come out of that I know at least now that I have to confide in someone if I want to make steps in making it better. Some things are a waiting game, which can make you feel helpless because its far ahead or out of your control but even describing the emotions that you're feeling or why something makes you feel a particular way can help validate it for you and put it all out there. I go between my mum, my aunt and a friend of mine that I try snapchat everyday. Even though we've not spoken privately you're more than welcome to write me a pm if you're ever feeling low again in future. For bigger things it usually better to sit with someone in person and just cover everything but if its a little thing thats bothering you I've found just typing it out is enough to help in someway. Take care <3

I hope you are feeling better now. If not, know that some people are here for you even tho you may not even know them very well. 

I can kinda relate to how you must've felt, when everything seems to be falling apart. It's not always easy to bounce back, but there is always a way. We sometimes just need somebody to remind us of how strong we are. 

Take care :hug:
