This may sound really weird but sometimes when I get to a super low place one of the things that helps me get some energy is taking some time to treat myself like a child. Watch a movie or TV show from my childhood that I liked. Eat some junk food maybe. Put on some bright colors. Cuddle with a stuffed animal. Just kind of gives me a childlike energy back when I just take a second to forget about responsibilities and just be easy on myself.

Definitely go talk to your doctor and tell them what’s going on. It’s better to get in front of something like this before it gets too bad. I hope you feel better. It sucks when you have to experience these things while going through everyday life, but I believe in you! Anyways, don’t forget to talk with your doctor ❤️
