I have texted The Samaritans but they have said it could be hours before they can get back to me - I don’t feel able to pick up the phone and talk to anyone. Don’t know why I am posting really - to feel less alone???

OP I didn’t want to read and run. I second what a PP said - no the medication won’t magically fix anything but it will help just take the edge off. I’m so sorry you feel this way, but you aren’t alone and we’re all listening x

Did not post yesterday - it was not a good day Sad hopefully today will be better. Felt terrible on waking but did a short meditation. I am up - dishwasher and washing machine on and will set off to work later. Just focusing on putting one foot in front of the other and taking it a step at a time. Thanks again for checking in with me and offering support - it helps me to feel less alone.

Im not sure if you have the headspace app? That has all sorts of guided activities. Equally my personal favs are the Calm Harm app (lots of distractions etc) and the Stay alive app.

Each day is a victory sometimes
