I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. Mornings can be the absolute worst! I do know exactly how you feel! Sometimes I find myself doing the exact same thing. It’s such a helpless, hopeless feeling.

Pray, be as patient as you can and try to just get through the next minute or hour. Focus on the here and now. Do something that will distract you and get you out of your head.

Don’t focus on the future and don’t try to figure out how you’re going to get through the next day or next year. That only adds to the sadness and fear. Also - Don’t beat yourself up if you can’t do this right now. Some days you can and some days you can’t.

See if your doctor will prescribe at least a few sleep meds per month so that you can get some relief from your weary mind. It’s so hard without sleep!

Feel free to message me back. I’m going through the almost identical experience!

Prayer said for you!!
