I have never felt this anxious and depressed. I have been unable to apply for any jobs for 8 months now (out of the pure anxiety of having to do so) despite being short on money - and that's just one of the things I've been struggling with.

I tried four therapists. Didn't help. It felt like doing half a page of a CBT workbook I could have done at home and having to wait a week or two before seeing the therapist again.

I tried the above-mentioned CBT workbooks. Yes, I know what my core problems and struggles are but these do not provide solutions.

I haven't tried medications as I have a history of suicidal thoughts and I have an addictive personality so I'd rather not risk it lest I suffer from these side-effects.

I am so depressed, screaming for help but nothing and nobody seems to be able to help. I can't even begin to think about those that are in my shoes but aren't motivated or don't want to ask for help.

That said, what helped YOU? Might help me and others ❤️❤️❤️
