My question is how do I start self-care and rasing my self-esteem. I know that sounds like a stupid question to ask, but my mind is racing and having trouble sleeping and eating,cause my systems are so bad right now,yes my therapist know this. I just need some support right now and that someone cares about me. Just having a rough time right now. thanks for reading this. take care.
You don't have to raise your self esteem to start self care. In fact you can feel pretty crappy and still manage the self care. if you have a little extra money but yourself some candles and go take a bath . . . have a good cry and wash away the tears.
