I can’t work up the courage to talk to any of my friends when I’m having mental health issues. It hits the worst for me usually at 4-5 am, and I never want to wake anyone up when I’m having panic attacks that late due to my intrusive thoughts, even though being around people helps. I’m in a safe place and have a therapist/medication, but it feels like I’m not getting better every time I find myself back in this situation. I know that’s not true. It just sucks.

  1. Baby steps my friend, baby steps. Congratulate yourself for getting another day in the rear view mirror, another moment of standing fierce and fighting through the depression. You will get there as many of us have. A valuable lesson I learned while taking my dog to puppy training, “re-direct”! When the clouds start to descend, I re-direct myself to a happy place. It can be a hobby or craft project, a Movie or series, even housework gets me through that period of darkness. Wishing you all the love and success!
