Feeling Broken, alone and lost the will

[JayPeralta01]

I am currently really struggling, I feel I need to write this down cause I’ve never been great at expressing myself. I am feeling broken, betrayed. There’s just so much pain and it seems there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Haven’t been able to sleep or eat, I feel heavy and the burden seems too much to bear right now . I’m trying to stay positive but these thoughts just get stronger every hour of every day

hello and welcome.

I'm so sorry you're going through this difficult time and feeling such deep pain. It's clear you are really struggling right now based on what you wrote in the initial post.

It's understandable that staying positive feels impossible when the negative thoughts and emotions seem so overwhelming. I want you to know that you have incredible strength inside you, even if you can't feel it right now.

If I were permitted to make a suggestion ... focus on getting through the next minute, hour, or day. Celebrate tiny wins like getting out of bed, taking a shower, or talking to a friend. Give yourself permission to feel whatever you need to feel - cry, scream, sleep. This is a process and there will be ups and downs, but you can get through this.

Most importantly, please reach out for support. If you want to chat some more I'm listening ...
