I've been awake since 4.30 this morning. I'm tired. Mentally and physically. But I know in my head that I will struggle to sleep tonight. I'm dreading lying in bed.
Was diagnosed with depression and anxiety last week. Counselling starts on 6 Jan. I don't know how I'm going to cope until then.
I've got so much to do and zero motivation to do it.
Dp isn't very emotionally available, never has been. He's just not an emotional person and can't give me the support I crave. He does all the practical stuff but can't seem to hold me. He has just come out of a depression too.
There isn't even anything wrong, per se. So I do not know why I feel like this and feel guilty for feeling so down. I have a beautiful toddler who is the light of my life. He has seen me crying too much lately. He tries to comfort me and it breaks my heart.
Can anyone give me any practical tips on how I can get some sleep tonight?
I have so much wrapping to do and no energy to do it. I usually take such pleasure in doing it but this year I am dreading it. I can't even be arsed to get a shower.
I just feel hollow.
