Emotional burnout
I'm trying to change myself for the better. Changing yourself is so hard and I feel emotionally burnout. Sometimes I want to break down emotionally but I know it's not going to solve everything. I have to make effort to change my own life and I don't know where to release my pent up frustration. I have come a long way from my crippling anxiety to somehow healthy mindset. But it's tough to maintain it and be constant. I will try my best to be mentally strong.

Hi! I can relate, yes change can be hard, and take a lot of effort. Good on you for trying, so many people don't. It sounds like you get emotionally overwhelmed sometimes, and this leads to burnout. It can take a lot of practise to be OK with feeling your emotions, I find that when I try to avoid them and ignore them they build up and get worse. Sometimes it helps to do it with a trusted person/listener/counsellor at first.
Congratulations on coming this far! Crippling anxiety takes a lot of effort to overcome, and to have developed a healthy mindset, even sometimes, is a big achievement. I am happy for you.
How are you feeling now?
