Struggling with Depression: Need Advice

Thinking of you and I know how brutal it is to get Dr appts when we need help… Walks and talking to anyone… being vulnerable is a great step. hope you feel better soon, I don’t know you but you are clearly loved.

First of all, so sorry that you are struggling right now because I have been there and I know how hard it can be. I’ve been suicidal more times than I’d like to admit. Therapy will help, I also suggest setting up an appointment to see a psychiatrist because meds can help at least to get through the initial hump. The combination can be really great. In the mean time try looking up some mindfulness apps to learn some coping skills to have handy for stressful moments. Definitely utilize those suicide hotlines. Even if you don’t feel like you’re not bad enough to call you can still call. They’ll talk you and help distract you for a little bit and it can really be useful. There are even text lines or live chats if you’re not comfortable talking on the phone. Sending care and wishing you luck on your healing journey 💜
