Yes i know where your coming from.
Definately.
I am in medication which is finally helping.
Dont be hard on yourself ok
Its such a hard thing when your dealing with it.
I still have my moments where i cant leave the house or the thought of seeing people makes me tired and angry.
But ive learnt to be aware of my achievements and its getting a bit better all the time. it took years to get to this point but its worth it.
I will think of you
I hope things get easier, do seek out help ok,
