Another day ...

Another day ...

Here I go again. I wake up every day feeling sick in the stomach about the day ahead.
People talk about life being too short and so wonderful but for me it's quite the opposite.
I've tried everything but nothing changes.
I'm 46 years of age and this has been going on my whole life, I'm exhausted with it all.

Re: Another day ...

I'm extremely bored each day. What gets me up is thaw fact that I live with my elderly father. I want him to think I'm ok.

Re: Another day ...

As much as anxiety and depression is a big factor in my life I try very hard to not let it consume me each and every minute of every day. It's important to talk about your problems but sometimes it's more important to have a distraction. Work is good for that but if that's not possible then voluntary work or an interest group is good. Getting involved and out of the home requires you to be distracted from your own issues and helps with developing a more balanced identity.
I realise for some this may be difficult but little steps forward will help.
Having said that there are days that I just can't get out of bed and that's ok because there's always tomorrow....

perfectly said. Some days we can get up and go. Some days we just need to stay still
