Started the day off crying again. I don’t know what will make life more bearable. Why does everything have to be so hard, such a struggle?

Am I the only one that feels this way?

You are not alone. I am also having a very difficult time right now. Everything feels like a chore and I find it hard to get motivation to do the most basic of things. I struggle to get out of bed most days. It's very hard. But all we can really do is get a routine in and keep working on self care. Building up self compassion is what will help us the most. I am sorry you are suffering but you are not alone.

Thank you. That means a lot. I don’t have any friends and my family has basically abandoned me. It is nice to have someone reach out.
I understand. I don't have many to reach out to either. It is a struggle but during this time the best thing for you is to work on self compassion and self care. Build yourself up during this time. I know it's not much comfort but it will help. A routine is good for this. It won't be overnight so you have to stick with it but you can do it. Best wishes to you.
I totally feel like that too. I feel sad, then I feel angry, then I switch back to sad because I feel like I'm not allowed to be angry. I feel trapped in a life I don't want. My only escape is sleep and listening to music. Don't like living like this. What gives me hope anymore? Trying to find my way, these are rough times.

You are so right. I feel like at this point in my life I should have more stuff figured out.
I'm 50 and the more I know, the less I understand. I haven't worked in a long time, but it helped me a lot to get out of the house today. Just take baby steps. Doing small things really helps, better than just lying in bed, which I do too much.
