Hi Leo, You are having a difficult time at the moment. You definitely deserve to be happy, everyone does, you don't have to earn it! If you haven't already, may I urge you to chat to your GP and get some professional medical advice and support. Ask for a referral to your local community mental health teams (CMHT) as there are a range of therapies available, not just medication, but talking therapies. You sound like you need help to get out of this rut you're in and to get a fresh perspective on things. Therapy can help us challenge and change unhelpful negative thinking and behaviours.

You are not alone, we are here and listening.

Hi Leo

You have been given some great advice by the person who previously replied to you .

Can you follow this advice and try and seek the professional services that are available.

You sound like what I can relate to and getting the correct help with medication would really benefit yourself. Our experiences are all relative and we all have a threshold of what we feel is manageable, and what is not.

It isn't helpful to store up our past issues, yet it happens all too easily. Try hard not to go over these, but instead shelve them and allow them to collect dust so they get buried and cannot be lifted up.

Another way of dealing with our hurts and painful experiences is to imagine/visualise gathering them up in a big bin liner, making sure you put a big knot in the top of the bag/s and throw it/ them up to the sun - never to return again.

Another way to process these hurts is to write them down and screw up the piece of paper,and in a safe environment/area in your garden/or a garden some where / park if you don't have a garden to access, and set fire to the paper and watch it all burn away - In this way you are releasing those experiences/fears/pain.

you can also get some balloons, blow them up, write on paper, and tie the bits of paper onto the balloons and release the balloons into the universe. You can visualise doing this, or actually do this as an activity. If you live near a beach, or can get to a beach to do this - this would be an ideal place to release your balloons.

Happy to talk

Best wishes
