I am glad you're connecting with our community. It sounds like it's a really tough time for you, perhaps think about some soothing strategies.

Right now I don’t have any or think of any  self soothing. It doesn’t work snd I don’t care right now. I’m hurting @CatrionaB

Hi @Faith-and-Hope@Shaz51@Zoe7@Pepsimax@MDT 

I didn’t sleep well at all. Went to bed and sobbed. I could hear the pouring rain and strong wind so I grabbed my doona and sobbed. I started thinking I’m terrible I hate everything myself incl and that I’ll never get better. This will be me forever. I can’t cope. I took the tab the doctor suggested. I finally fell asleep but as per usual I was awake at 2.45 and again st 5.30. I’m stuffed exhausted very teary. I’m sitting here with a cup of tea. Hubby snd boys asleep. 

Im done I can’t keep going like this. I’m exhausted. Think I’ll grab a blanket and lay on the couch. It’s pouring outside so inside today. But I’m feeling couped up choking staying inside. I need to do something
