Hanging on barely
I'm supposed to be calling my PCP Wednesday to make an appointment for physical health reasons but also to get referred to a psychiatrist. I am also supposed to call a counselor who was recommended to me to see if she accepts my ins. I know I need to do these things to help me get better. But I don't have confidence in that anymore and it's making it hard to make that move but in the meantime I'm here in this app posting and talking with listenes trying to hang on to myself until I can get those things going.. I am also struggling in my relationships with my partner with my kids with everyone. I'm struggling bc I'm not well physically or mentally and Im just letting life happen.

I'm sorry to hear that you are going through so much at the moment. I understand why you're feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, as sometimes when we've been struggling for a long time, we begin to feel despondent and lose hope even when an opportunity for change comes up, as we feel that nothing may change. You have every right to feel the way you are, and your feelings are valid.
I'm glad that you are reaching out to listeners to help support you and to help you feel heard. I am proud of you for making it this far and for always trying, because I know how hard it is to strive when you are struggling and when you feel the weight of the world is on your shoulders, and I believe in you, no matter where you go or what you do. Take it one step at a time and take each day as it comes. Be kind to yourself, and do what you feel is best for you, always.
