      <description>&lt;P&gt;I’m at the point where my limits have been reached and about to be breached. I wake up every day wishing that I hadn’t. My past seems pointless and I have no interest in making effort towards the future. I don’t know what made things change or what I may have done but I’m worried about myself.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
