Hi @bpfighter250 - I am sorry to hear you are having trouble connecting. That must be rough in a field that requires communication as its primary work tool. I am not sure what emotions and thoughts are going through your head so what I suggest is basically things that work for me.

I use lifestyle changes in addition to seeking professional help and support groups, I also practice exercise, mindfulness, eating healthy moderate protein low carb diet, getting fresh air and either online or in real life social contact.

As a way to open up the heart I find these loving kindness meditations help me.
