Hi
Feeling very low at the moment as a single parent with little support emotionally. A lot of life event have happened recently and i am very teary today. i have suffered depression in the past and have been on ads but not for years. i would like to avoid going on them if possible and am trying to manage the depression and anxiety in other ways.. ie eating well, exercising etc.
I spend a lot of time on my own, however am quite motivated and am not afraid to do things on my own, i am independent. i am taking my ds away on my own soon, a little nervous but ok.
I have constant thoughts and anxieties, mainly around the relationship with my mother, just being divorced and split with exP. panics if i can manage on my own with ds and the effect it will have on him. i have been shouting a lot recently :-(
i have a lot of "head talk" going on. i have a tightness in my chest like i could cry at any time. I sometimes have to do X,Y and Y before i can do something that is bothering me eg.. making an important phonecall. i am probably overanalysing i dont know but i have have a constant "thing" where i am living up to something although i dont know why and i dont know who for. i feel like i want everything "perfect"... i hope i am making sense in some form. i have self help books etc but my memory is terrible at the moment and i dont seem to be truly taking it in.... any ideas, are is my brain just adjusting to recent events and i have to "ride it out"
