Title: really struggling

Really struggling now. Don't know what to do next. Dont even know what to type to get help. Does this happen to us after all the crazy making behaviour? I cant even voice a sentence together to explain where I am at?

it is good that you have reached out. In these circumstances, when it gets overwhelming, i know it can feel like it is all that we can do

honestly i am feeling exactly the same right now, i have been feeling burnt out and mentally exhausted. self care time has been hard to come by but i feel like whatever time we can get to ourselves to do something we enjoy can help to keep us refreshed and make it easier to tackle the things that will come... .its slow going but i am trying my best to do things i enjoy as much as i can.

look after yourself, these times will pass and i know that people on this board will be there with advice and support while they do.

Excerpt
I cant even voice a sentence together to explain where I am at?
I think this does happen often, or at least i know it does for me.  What helps me is to reach out to others.  Seriously, I may not have words to express my own feelings but I can usually find the words to post in another's thread.  It helps me to stay connected and not be consumed by my own situation.  A lot of times after posting I can feel myself opening up and I have a good feel for where I am at.  It is too easy to get caught up in our own head.
