Think I am tipping back into anxiety and depression again

I am so exhausted right now. I have 2 smallDC. I'm working FT in a b stressful environment which is only going to get worse for the next 9 months.

DP wants to take the 2 Dc away to his mums next week for a week. It's 350 miles away. I don't think I can cope. I'm spending hours having thoughts about them being separated from me and something terrible happening to them like a car crash. It's so consuming and I keep crying a lot. I can't sleep. DP says I need help and it's not normal.

I am terrified and exhausted. I can't take rime off to go away as I have the end of the summer holidays with them.

I've had MH issues before but stopped ADs before but I feel I'm starting to tip back down that path again of fear and constant panic and I'm getting frightened about how to stop it. I know if I can't rein it in the self harm starts. Don't know how to get my head right again. I don't even know if this is normal or overly anxious or the start of something worse.

Sorry to ramble

Have you been to the docs before? Can you go and have a chat about what options they have for treatment?

You're not alone, I know it can feel that way but you aren't.

Aww littlepenguin you can get some help for this, don't go on suffering. You have a lot going on but speak to your doctor and no shame going back on some ADs. I know they're rough at first but worth it when u start feeling brighter xx
