My grandma got admitted to the hospital 2 days ago and just got discharged. Just came to know today that my dad was also hospitalized but is totally fine now. They’re both ok but why does it hurt so

Much? I’ve been getting anxiety attacks and feeling lightheaded. Idk what to do. My family lives in a different country.

Hang in there and stay strong! If you need to visit them take a break, may be thanksgiving or upcoming holiday period and do go see them. Take care of yourself first as well! Which country are they in? Is it close by?

I’ve been struggling with finding the right antidepressant. I started a few months ago but had really bad side effects and stopped (headaches, lethargy, nausea, inability to concentrate).

I think I need to find an antidepressant that works for me but I’m nervous it’s going to make work that much harder. Do I tell someone at my firm? If so, how?

This is super weird but I feel like I can’t relate easily to people.

It makes it difficult to have a stable life and close friends..

And then I stayed up basically three days straight working, which has only made me slower and more inefficient. So I’m still not done and now I’m in the pits of anxiety and exhaustion hell. FML.
