Hi there @LostAngel ,

I'm hearing you. It sounds so tough right now. I wish I could take all the hurt away.

Thank you Both for taking time to read and understand , the good news things have improoved slightly in the days since Ive managed to at least set an alarm to get up that bit earlier in the mornings,Im kind of asking myself what I need in the momment wether thats comftable clothing to wear or a drink of water or something sweet to eat ,or time to just sit and be while listening to music ,I still havnt quite bought something creative to physically do with my hands yet but sleep has improoved a little ,eating has improoved a little ,I guess just slowly finding my way back to believing in myself ,trying to do things that may be small but bring some kind of boost in confidence or something like that ,I phoned lifeline a few times and the second time the lady on the phone really seemed to get what the root issue is lack of self confidence ect whuch turned into depreesion and anxiety but back to some positive points I am slowly communicating more with people in general,had a great talk with my mum and also my aunt ,I think us women need eachother sometimes in the emotional aspect to help us feel that bit centred or grounded in our selves or even just to feel listened to and understood for a while,also try to smile even if I dont feel like smiling ,I kept telling mydself that Ive got this and it helped,have been a bit more engaged with studies but still doing it within a slower pace for time being and making sure to take breaks ,showered today ate breakfast lunch and dinner,just basically doing what I need to do when I need to do and as the lifeline suport person said just taking small steps ,with self care and daily goals ,I havnt got everthing done on my to do list and things may still be a little allover the place but am getting there am not stuck in bed or at least getting out of my comfort zone gradually with little things overall ,making sure to do something for relaxation as much as possible thanks to the people on here who completely get how things feel in that dark place happy to report slowly making my way out of the dark sigh of relief much love and kindness to anyone whos in or has been in a simular boat you got this your braver than you think
