Struggling with Exhaustion and Depression

I am a long-timer as well, and can relate to feelings of despondency. But you have value, no matter how hard it is to see it sometimes.

I’m so sorry to hear it’s been so difficult for you! I’ve had CFS /ME for a long time also. It’s really hard to get through when the energy just isn’t there. I think what has helped me in the hardest times is extreme pacing / self care - with the little energy I had, being super intentional about bringing only positive/supportive things into my space - what I watched, heard, thought about etc. Otherwise I’d spiral in and spiral down & then yea it feels like it’s impossible to get through it. I’m just one little person so I don’t understand the big picture or why things happen. But I have the very deep belief that every life has value, always. No matter what.
