It has taken me ages to get the courage to write this.
I am recovering from almost a year of severe depression and voices and visions. I have been diagnosed with bdp, ptsd, depression and fibromyalgia. I see and hear things that aren't there some times, but am well managed with anti depressants and anti physcotics. All my diagnoses have been in the past 6-8 months. I am currently increasing my anti depressants for fibromyalgia pain so feel a bit wobbly anyway.
I have one dd, aged 7. I have been a single mum for a long time. My ex partner, dd' s Dad, died in a house fire a few months ago.
I am really struggling with my confidence; I don't go out, talk to any one, just stay in ad do housework. I have a degree but haven't been able to work since I finished it, as I got ill just after. I can't even bear to hear myself talk. I just want to hide away. I make plans to do things, but then put them off. I feel really worn down and worthless. Have others done anything that's helped with their confidence and mental health issues? I'd appreciate any advice.
