I have been having nightmares recently, wow had no idea others are experiencing this as well! I am not sure if I can attribute it to the pandemic...but yet I didn’t have them beforehand 🤔

My therapist just said he could no longer help me because I went back on social media to see what my ex has been up to when I said I wouldn’t. I don’t know why this is so wrong. I’m sorry that it’s taking me longer to heal and I’m not ready to let go.

I find myself questioning my existence daily now. I think about what it would be like to just no longer exist - and what a relief it might be instead of just seeing wallowing in misery all of the time. It seems like this is my regular mindset and I don’t know what to do. I like anyone recommend meds? Is it time for that? I don’t really want to go that route, but I also know that I can’t continue to live like this either.

Anyone else use work as their escape? People complain about not having work life balance but I only stay for the long hours.
