Tired

Truetomyself
Community Member
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.

I can't do this anymore. I am tired.

Hey Truetomyself,
Thanks for posting tonight,
We're sorry to hear how tired and overwhelmed you feel at the moment. If you're comfortable, could you share with us what's been going on for you today? Please know we're here and listening. 

We've also sent a private email to check in with your well-being. 

I hate Christmas because it means I have to spend time with people I don't want to. It reminds me my grandma is not here and she is the only person I want. I hate Christmas.

Hello Truetomyself,

What are you doing today? Are you lying in your bed, or have you gotten up, showered & put on some clean clothes, then gone in to have some good food.? From there, you could go out into the fresh air? I'm hoping that you choose to do something which has a chance of being enjoyable.

You have my best wishes for a Happy Christmas, & a much Happier New Year.☮️ ❤️

They don't understand my mental health issues.

I need help to find a job. I struggle due to my anxiety. I have lost all of my jobs due to my anxiety. I have no idea what to do. Please help with ideas. Thanks
