Hi all

my mind is playing tricks on me
everything going wrong in my life
cant cope
Feelings of worthlessness
want to sleep forever and never wake up... but don't want to be dead (if that makes sense)
want to scream
want to run away
want it all to be ocer
Need to move on
stuck in a rut
jumbled thoughts

In response to: Can’t sleep... mega jittery .... scared
