((((( Seren))))

I'm not as bad today but last night was pretty low and I was scarily close to doing something stupid. I'm still not past that if I'm honest but it's just keep going one step at a time atm

Me too EB. I’m skirting the edge. It’s a steep drop and a long way down. Currently colouring like an idiot

I have just found out that my niece is on antidepressants. She is 9!

WTAF! 9! Wow! I'm not judging, I'm shocked, and as I understand it she is in a very bad way, suffering from both anxiety and depression.

Something so hard for us adults to comprehend, how is a child supposed to cope with that? :(

Oh bless her, thats rough. As you say, it's tough enough for us "grown ups". No idea what I'd have been like if it had hit me that young.

I'm back.

Firstly let me apologise for not being here for other people who have been suffering while I went through a fairly positive phase but I'm suddenly in this hole again and can't move.

While things were good I managed to get myself a job which is great but I'm finding it really difficult at the moment, to go and be normal in it when inside me is a steaming pit of blackness and despair. I'm still in my probational period and I'm terrified I'll lose it.

At this moment in time, I'm finding it very difficult to motivate myself to do anything at all. I'm pushing things and people away who were probably good for me. I can see no point to being alive or any worth in myself and I think this particular episode has been triggered by the mental health assessment I had which has resulted on my just being placed on a waiting list for treatment when I actually really need it NOW.

I feel like I'm at danger point and every day is a struggle not to do something to harm myself.

Stayed off work Mon and Tues. Going back today. Told work d&v. Not had a lot of sleep. Feel dreadful kept waking up all night. Work hasn't bothered me me before not sure why it is now.

Pleased you've had a good spell Jangles but not pleased you are finding it tough again. Hang on and take it minute by minute if you have to. You've been here before you know you can get back again. If things get too bad ring someone.

Lil I'm speechless tbh. The pressures on children so young now that are leading to this..... I just can't comprehend how I'd feel if this was a relative of mine

Thanks eb I know what is getting to me so it is still more about the terror of going back to where I was and struggling to deal with emotions that are upsetting. But the (()) help. Your advice to jangles is sweet and good I hope today is better and you can figure out a why if it helps (it does me)
(Lilaicha) so sorry for your little niece my childhood was shit I hope it's a good thing someone has noticed and it will help x
