Tired

[Truetomyself]

At the moment I feel really tired and exhausted from my anxiety that is now impacting my depression.
I am also tired of having to hide it. Especially with work.
I can't afford to loose my job but I can't say what's really going on.
I am scared and unsure of what to do. I have lost jobs because of my mental health being so up and down.
I have no one to talk about it to.

Hi Truetomyself,

I just wanted to check in with you and ask how you are feeling today?

I understand it’s so difficult to feel lost…… I remember when I was in the thick of it it was very difficult.

Have you been able to see a gp ?

Hang in there after every storm in life a rainbow will appear.

You have a great purpose ….. can you make one positive choice today and move forward with that……… ❤️

Hi Petal

I am feeling tired. I am tapering meds and just want to curl into a ball and rest. Thank you for asking.

[Petal22]

That’s ok 😊

I hope you are feeling better soon 🙏

hello.

tapering medication can be difficult. maybe you could tell me what you do in a typical day?

[Truetomyself]

How do I do this when I can't even do simple things like shower and dress? I am tired of it. I hate being me and dealing with all of this.

Hi Truetomyself,

Im sorry you are feeling this way but as Sophie’s post has said you are coping which is great….

You’re going to be ok just breathe. Breathe and remind yourself of all the times you felt this scared . All the times you felt this anxious and overwhelmed. All the times you felt this level of pain, and remind yourself how each time, you made it through. Life has thrown so much at you, and despite how difficult things have been, you’ve survived. Breathe and trust you can survive this too. Trust that this struggling is part of the process, and trust that as long as you don’t give up and keep pushing forward, no matter how hopeless things may seem, you will make it.

I don't feel like I am coping. I have no one to talk to. I feel alone and it's hard doing this myself. I am tired of fighting. I feel useless and struggle to have a shower and get dressed.

Hi. Popping in to say to hello and ask what you did this Saturday?

[Petal22]

Hi Truetomyself,

Im really sorry you are feeling this way I understand it would be difficult for you.

I understand how tiring it would be.

How would you feel about seeing a gp so you can discuss how you are feeling?

Is there any health professionals that you would feel comfortable seeing?

You aren’t alone, we are here as a community to support you..

Hang in there
