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.

[Truetomyself]

I don't know who to reach out to but I am struggling and I need help. I have lost weight, I am out of energy and can't move. Please help me.

Heu... I read about your struggle, also how beyond blue are trying to the connect with you. Are you able to call lifeline and speak with someone there? I am also sure your siblings would help you at this time as well. We are also here for you also.

[Truetomyself]

I have called Lifeline. I appreciate all Beyond Blue have done. My sister is religious and blamed me yesterday for the way I am. I am spiritually repressed. My other sister doesn't talk to me and my brother has no idea what to do. I am stuck. But thank you for the ideas.

[smallwolf]

Do you feel as though you are spirituality repressed as you put it? Even though I might have faith I certainly do not believe for one minute you are to blame for anything. I have also been on the receiving end of some religious folk.

Your brother while not knowing what to do perhaps only needs to be able to listen and learn from your story? That is, assuming he is able to listen to you.

I can also listen to you tell your story and respond. This is a safe and non judgmental space.

If you don't want to share much if your story now perhaps you could tell me of some things you like? Or anything else. I would just like to know a little more about you. Is that ok?

[Truetomyself]

I am having night time panic attacks and can't get back to sleep. Any ideas what I should do?

Hi Truetomyself,

We’re so sorry to hear that. That must be awful. We’re glad you could share here. We have some advice, and we think it will be helpful to hear from the community, too.

It might help to have a look at some of our advice pages on these topics:

• Strategies for managing anxiety
• Strategies for sleeping well

It’s worth bearing in mind that the Beyond Blue counsellors are available 24/7, so you can call them when you’re going through it if you think it might help to talk it through with them. They’ll be able to work through some grounding techniques with you, and can help you to figure out what you’re next steps are if you need some more support with this.

We hope that helps.

Kind regards,

Sophie M

I am afraid of my anxiety and agrophobia. It's hard and I am struggling. I am clammy and sweat a lot. Coming off a medication is hard.
