everything is wrong

So sorry to hear, @Eden1919 😢

Make no apologies for the length of the post @Eden1919

I wish I had a more useful response, but I hope, at least, that your posting that helped in some tiny way

Wishing some good into your day

Sorry to hear your struggling.

Hi @Eden1919

I'm sorry to read how hard it is for you at the moment. It seems like it has been going on for awhile now. I am glad you have reached out on the forums. It does show that there is a part of you that wants the help.

Has your support team been supportive of you recently?

When I feel like this I try and make myself goals. I write down what I want to get done during that day. If I get the goal done then it gives me a form of accomplishment and can at times make me feel better about myself. They don't have to be big. My goal for today was to get out of bed and get dressed. Perhaps it is something you can try.

Please keep reaching out for support, you certainly deserve it.

@Eden1919 Sorry to hear you are struggling

with getting things done I do similar to @Snowie

I write down 2 or 3 things, at the most, that I come to my mind I would like to do that day. Sometimes I look at the things and write then down again in order starting with what is most important.

my list for today is getting dressed, doing dishes.

some days I only get one thing done on my list. I don’t get worried or upset about not having done everything on my list and let myself feel happy about what I have done.

you mentioned an essay and going to sleep in the mornings.

are you awake during the night? May be you might be able to do little bits of your essay each night.

Hey @Eden1919 , we're here if you need a chat 🙂

Hi Eden,

well that sounds very tough to deal with. Do you have anyone like friends or family that you can lean on for emotional and physical (help with cleaning for example) help? I am new here so I don’t know your background, but that was my first thought. If not, have you seen your doctor to get referred for some mental health treatments?
if it helps at all, I have lived with anxiety and sometimes depression for a long time. Therapy helps a lot if you can afford it. So can reading some good books on this subject which you can get free from your local library.
you say you have an essay due soon, can you get help with completing that, either from fellow students or your tutor/lecturer? Or get an extension?
sorry I am asking so many questions, maybe you just want someone to listen and hear you. Keep posting.

Thanks everyone, I have tried lists and goal setting but it isnt helping idk what to do i still havent started my essay but i am hoping to do it tomorrow and the next day. i am just struggling a lot with everything idk i am trying my best but evidently that isnt enough. i am seeing a psychologist and psychiatrist but yeah anyway for tonight i am just going to try and work on my sleep.

as for the other stuff that is bothering me it is still bothering me but i am trying my best to ignore it because the more i think about it the more freaked out i get.

@Eden1919 Good luck with your essay, and I hope the functioning becomes easier 🤞
