Hi. I'm struggling with traumas from sicknesses, at 6 staying at hospital for the whole december and january because of this terrible sicknesses, being bullied at school and abused by my parents. But things got really rough when they divorsed 2 years ago . And they finally started getting normal and 1 year ago i found out dad's girlfriend is pregnant. I had to keep a secret for months. My own sorrow and thinking about how mom and real sis would take it. Rn i don't even know what happened and what name has the little child nor when it was born.

My already bad mental health Absolutely colapsed and nobody cares. I had 4 therapists since then, visited my doctor and a psychiatrist, called crisis lines. An year later i'm still colapsing. I'm losing it

I can only tell you what helps me. 7-8 hours of sleep each night. 45 minutes of daily cardio exercise to produce endorphins that battle your anxiety and depression. After my shower I rinse 5 minutes in pure cold water. Google cold shower therapy for mental health. I talk to god because I don’t think life of all types is an accident. My dog or cat helps me. If you can’t have one volunteer for a shelter. And family is helpful. And I take my medicine the dr gave me.

Hi, Just read your post. I'm so sorry for all that you have experienced. I also had lengthy hospital stay as a child, difficult upbringing and father problems. I too felt overwhelmed.The one thing I would like to share with you is--- you will not always feel this way.

Our feelings and emotions are constantly shifting( even during a single day). Life events, wise words shared that allow you to see something from a different perspective , medication, therapists, time passing and new connections all alter the way we feel. I sure wish I could go bak in time tell my younger self that life gets much better.

I'm glad that you are reaching out for support. We all need that. I care.
