Someone please help

I am very anxious and scared right now. This worry and past thoughts are killing me. I am trying to distract, but I don't really have anyone, I live with my family but they can't know or understand, I have to pretend to be normal with them, doing the daily chores. I am really feeling very bad and I can't sleep, I can't stay awake. I don't have an appetite. I don't want to get up. But I have to do some forcibly. Someone please help, I can't be alone right now. I just want to cry

Take calm deep breaths gently and rest. Just observe your thoughts and question them and try to quiet them down - they will pass until you get more rational and positive thoughts. Just try

Thankyou. I do the questioning thing, but I get tired in between. Future seems so scary and the triggers aren't going down. I am trying to relax and distract, but this constant worry and past reminders. But I will keep trying. Thanks for responding

We are our best friends, and you can make it better by reprogramming your mind and thinking of more comforting thoughts. I am here to help you in your journey and breathe calmly as really helps.

I am aware that the thought patterns need to be changed and improved but I am not able to do it alone and I don't know where to begin, I know the stuff theoretically but I don't know how to apply it. Any thought isn't comforting me right now. I am doing the breathing technique.

Just say ' You are going to get through this and will be fine, it is just a moment and will pass and you will feel better today or tomorrow' and 'you will cope' but your struggle is real and needs time to handle - stay calm and strong - when you can

Even you just use breathing technique it is good and will help you

Sorry really ill today or would help more but I hope some of what I said does come handy

No, you're being there. That means a lot.

Replace thoughts with positive ones

replace negative thoughts with positive

Some psychiatrist use this technique but you need to apply it and just try

There are good people here who are with you. Life can sometimes be difficult, but our lives change. When we are in bad places that will seem not likely, but lives do change and yours will change for the better when you least expect it. Like Venus I am with you

Hi winternight, how are you feeling now?

winternight in reply to RedRobin22

Hey, Still anxious and scared but willing to feel better. Fighting the loneliness, it recently got triggered, so it might take some time to shed off this anxiety slowly.

Sorry for my late response I've been unwell. It sounds like you're fighting a lot on your own and feeling isolated is so difficult. This community is here for you to reach out especially if you have nobody around you right now to talk to. I hope you have been able to sleep and eat a bit more, I know from experience not being able to do those basic things makes everything worse. What kind of feelings do you have today?

I am sorry to hear you're unwell, hope you're okay now. Yeah you can say that I am fighting with a lot alone. Thankyou for being there. I am not able to sleep well but I am eating as that's in my hands. Today was a little better than yesterday. I hope you're doing well.
