I've always suffered with my mental health, diagnosed with anxiety as a toddler and depression at 7yo. I've had a few major breakdowns, the last one I lost my children for a few days.
I'm taking my meds and having therapy and trying so hard to hang on to my sanity. The other day the cubes in my brain were wrong, I became really upset because of this, sometimes I know I can fly. I have so many weird thoughts and compulsions, I'm generally known as being weird but in an acceptable quirky way (no shoes, naming inanimate objects, speaking to bugs or flowers etc) I can't confide in anyone when I'm struggling because I will lose my children and I've worked so hard for them.
I'm OK at the moment so I want to ask, what can I do when I'm not OK to keep myself hanging on when I'm losing the plot?
