I think every night why was I ever conceived? The depression , the anxiety , the guilt I can't shake ... I try so hard to overcome these thoughts but apparently I'm too weak.

thank you for your reply and concern. Yes I am currently on meds and in therapy. my meds are hit and miss .. still trying to find the right combo for me. My struggle is so hard but I push through somehow. But when it comes to the evening or at night my anxiety gets worse and I can't sleep well.

but I take it day by day and I try to out of my dark place.

I hope your day goes well .. again thank you for reaching out.

I'm glad your doing your best, and it's terrible hard sometimes, I commend you for your courage to not give up. I am sure you've heard all the non medical stuff, meditation, calming music....I do the 'white noise' thing sometimes to calm down, I have always had a hard time sleeping. I listen to just the sounds or rain, or ocean waves, animal sounds and stuff get annoying, but some people like it. And thanks for the day going well comment, I actually am doing okay today...
