I have had a few good days and all of a sudden I am falling downhill again. Good things are happening but I just can't seem to get excited about them. My brain will not stop and I really can't tell how I feel emotionally. I feel like I am just making it day to day and I have no idea how i am doing it. A complete mess! I am a total mess right now!!

I feel you. Sometimes all you can do is take it day by day, hour by hour, sometimes even minute by minute. But you will make it through this. Somehow, someway, just have faith that it's psychologically impossible to stay in the dumps forever.
And give yourself permission to be a mess. You can't start to put yourself back together if you keep beating yourself up for being a mess.
You can do this, my friend. You are stronger than you know!
I'm rooting for you!

Hi QueenCopper

Well, a few good days..........that's a victory!!!
Really pleased for you
If only things could just switch back to good days..........and end off...........but it doesn't always happen that way, right??
So let's think instead..........WOW you did it, you had it beat (!!)..........you can do this..........you have been there you can get there!!!
It might take a little/some time, if things are hard right now..........but you know that this doesn't have to last, just do what you can before you can make it through the clouds into a better day again, and give yourself plenty of compassion, and if you can, self care..........because you deserve it!!!

And those good things that have been happening, just because you can't feel good about them now........doesn't mean that they've gone or they're wasted..........write them down and when you are in a better place to feel them..........then they are still going to be there for you to look back on. They still belong to you. For now.........there can be brighter days........just one day at a time.

Thanks for this!
