I am sorry you feel this way. When things get bad for me I focus on what needs to be done now. Sometimes that is minute by minute and sometimes I can look days into the future. I always keep a day planner when things get bad. I write everything I need to do down and then I cross each item off as I complete it.

It helps me make the world feel less overwhelming. Getting through my day can feel overwhelming, but if I break it down into small tasks; get out of bed, brush teeth, read x number of pages. At the end of the day I look at my planner and realize how much I acomplished in spite of that little bastard in the back of my head telling me I'm a failure.
