I apologise that I haven’t been posting on here or been active in a while. My mental health has been a massive downhill battle lately. For the last few months after my most recent market, I’ve felt myself sinking into a hole, but felt like I physically couldn’t pull myself out. I have bright moments, and I try so hard to embrace them, but now sometimes even in bright moments, my OCD is still so loud and it feels like I will never get a break.
Every day feels like a downwards battle, most nights I hope tomorrow never comes so I don’t have to deal with all the horrible pain my brain is going through. I think I typically come across as a bright and happy person, and a lot of days now I just don’t have the energy to put on a smile and I think that’s okay.
I’m trying to ask for support more and trying so hard to not lock myself in my bubble where I suffer in silence and feel so alone, because I don’t think I can survive this alone. I have some really cool friends, caring teachers and a very loving family that I’m so incredibly greatful for, yet my brain makes me feel like I’m such a massive burden to every single one of them and that there lives would be better without me. It’s hard battling that feeling as well as trying to find strength to reach out for help.
I’m hoping to be back to posting and raising money and raising awareness soon, but for now I need to focus on still being here and keeping myself going. I just wanted to post a little explanation :)
If your reading this and feeling alone or struggling, know it’s okay to reach out for help, it’s okay to ask for support even though being vunrable can be a scary feeling, your now is not your forever🧡
