I’m in the middle of moving by myself. I’m job hunting, because I lost my last one. My relationship has basically imploded. I sleep a lot on a fucked up schedule because I’m depressed but I can’t afford help, and I only get it when insomnia gives me a break. I’m so done and over all of this. I have so many heavy regrets. Idk how to carry all of this.

I have been you. Literally everything you said. You will get through this. Please reach out to me. I’d love to help you. This was 10+ years ago for me but I get it. When people would say that in 5 years this won’t matter, I did not know how to get through today let alone tomorrow or the path to 5 years. I come to you from your future though - you will survive and thrive and come back! You can do this too!!!

You’re gonna get through this, OP! We’ve been there, now we’re totally here for you and would love to help (DMed you, hope that’s okay). Keep going—your comeback is coming!

You should get help but you’re looking at this wrong. This is the chance for all new beginnings. You are no longer tied to your past, you get to write whatever you want for your future and make it better than it was. So start thinking about what you want, make a plan, stay positive and go out and do it. You’ve got this!!

You can’t afford help? Reassess your priorities in life. Your mental health is more important than your physical health. Most companies especially consulting ones have cheap or discounted therapy options.

Oh no. You need to talk to someone. Do you have a siblings, parent or friend that you can confide how you feel?

One day at a time. There will be bright spots again. You are a strong person to carry all that, but it won’t always be so heavy, and you do need someone to chat with until it is. You can often find free resources if you search your city + free mental health or crisis services.

I feel the same but please lean on your trusted folks!
