Hi OP,

It sounds like you've been through a lot and it's natural to feel that you can't face the day or get through the night at these times.

Can you set yourself a small thing in the morning and a small thing at night to look forward to?

The morning thing could be a five minute meditation, a short walk, watching a silly cartoon on YouTube, reading a short passage from a book or doing some exercise for endorphins.

At night it might be a cosy bubble bath, reading a book in bed, listening to a song or podcast. Whatever appeals to you. They are small things but sometimes it's the small things that reassure us and get us through.
