Hi Eden1919,I am Poppy, a moderator here. It sounds as if you are feeling very tired and overwhelmed? Any chance of taking a little rest, before you continue going with your work? Please let us know if you need any extra support. Any ideas of how others cope when they are feeling overwhelmed?

@Eden1919 Hey Eden1919 sorry you feel like crap atm. Can you sit outside and look at the stars. I find looking at the stars reassuring because it confirms how small we are and how our problems are so tiny compared to the universe. Maybe go for a brisk walk around the block. Make yourself a strong coffee or tea with sugar and rug yourself up and just be still while you listen to the sounds outside. The noises of the night. I hope this helps. Love always peaxx
