In a terrible state

Before I even opened my eyes this morning, my heart was raceing, my stomach churning and my head hurting.  I feel really nervous my head still hurts, I've done some jobs in the house this morning.  I feel a little better, not much, but a little.  Why is this happening to me, I used to burst with confidence, but, my family started telling me I was the weak one, that I would die before my parents, they are now dead, but it was them that said it.  I was the one that couldnt cope, gradually over years I think I began to believe it.  And now I am left in a nervous state, I also have emma who wasnt supposed to make one year old but is now 23 with non visible disabilities which are life limiting, it all gets too much on times, I have few friends, one really good one, today I feel awful.

sending you warm big hugs - anxiety is kinda like a wave, sometimes it just washes over you and it can feel like your drowning. Know you are not alone in that feeling, id say take time for yourself, be gentle with yourself, if your feel bad or sad... let it be, dont judge yourself for it. Its okay.. though it sucks to feel awful. Know it will past... a gentle reminder to be kind to yourself today. Hope these words help!

Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed by responsibility? I know that I would be, in your situation. Plus feeling alone. Can you call on your friend for a minute of moral support? I hope your day gets better.

The fact which got me past my relentless search for "Why?" was that discovering why never once changed the fact. Discovering why sometimes offered clues on where to ply the remedies, but only clues. Remedies to fix the problem always seem to be in an entirely library than the reasons why.

I dunno why, but continued support while you find your relief from ^it^.

I'm sorry to hear that your family is making you ill. Believing in yourself and being in a positive environment is so important for recovery. :( I am wishing you all the best, hoping you can make it through. Will it help to stand up to your family?

Wishing you all the best! <3

    I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying.  I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there.  I think that I will start writing in it again.  It's so therapeutic.

    First, I hope everyone is doing well, and continuing to fight that good fight! Keep up the great work on yourselves; I'm rooting for all of you!So, I started doing therapy at the beginning of the year, when I was in my most depressed state, but with my therapist, I made big changes and steps in the right direction. But, over a month ago, she couldn't take my insurance anymore, and I had to stop...
