Struggling with anxiety and depression

[goingpearshaped]

I am really struggling now. I thought I would be doing better now that English schools are heading back on the 8th. The end is in sight to the nightmare of full time work and homeschool but I am falling future. Not sleeping, on the verge of tears, irritable and yet also flat and sad. Some of that seems contradictory I know. At what point do you seek help?

Work is stupid anyway let alone with home school. They could not care less about staff so no help there. I took ADs when I was 20 ish and so don't want to take them again but I am mega struggling now. I know much of this is situational and I am no one special. It's not like others are not struggling too. I feel I should be able to do better but I really can't atm.

Hey! I think the point you seek help is when you ask people a question like that!
You’re obviously struggling right now Reach out for help what’s the worst that could happen, right ?? I’m a single mums of one staying at hone for the past two years my daughters two. So I havnt had the struggle of work or home schooling I had struggled with anxiety and depression since she was born but it just got worse and worse it wasn’t until a month ago when I was actually talking to people about how I felt that I realised I needed to reach out and oh my I wish I had done this 2 years ago!
I reached out to my GP and cried down the phone the whole phone call I was put on the lowest dose of meds and after 6 weeks I was feeling loads better! I’m so glad I made that step to feel my self again and I’m on the road to recovery! Iv even managed to leave my house for two days in a row for the first time in a year and a half! It’s a little steps at a time but I would be making any steps if I didn’t get help.
Always here to chat about anything just message me :)
(I’m so sorry for this sloppy message and awful grammar. I’m half asleep but had to reply to your post

I would say don’t do any more home schooling. Take the kids out for as much exercise as possible and breathe and count down the days til they go back to school. Maybe also look into diet/supplements to help support your mood?
