Hi,

How do you find hope qnd purpose to keep going when you feel so defeated. 

Its like I'm constantly stuck in my thoughts, and alone. I can't find words to express it.

When I'm around others I completely disassociate,  

Ita liks I'm a person who is good for nothing other then to be hurt, abandoned or abused

I just signed up to saneforums because I have been searching for physical support groups and can’t find any. Your question was the first I read and goodness it hits home. I feel the dissociation when around others and ive put myself in an invisible bubble. One thing I have tried which is small so only takes little effort, is manifesting. I picked up a small notebook and keep it in my bad. I try to use it when im feeling ok to increase that feeling and keep it going for longer. I write simple things. Mostly I write “I am Happy” over and over and over and hope that my brain rewires itself back into that belief. 

Its tough, I had always considered myself confident and content. And then one day I met someone who changed my whole self. My self image. My confidence. My decision making skills. My desire to see friends and family. All gone. Just like that. In a matter of 2/3 years. 

I hope the little book gives you some small steps towards recovery.

Just wanted to say hope you feel better. Here to lend an ear and support. Blue days come n go, but know that your worth is not linked to anything external. You are worthy, and you deserve to be happy. When I go blue and very sad, I try to remind myself of this.

Start with something small, make yourself a nice coffee, or take a walk with your favorite music on. It gets better.

Hi there @optik99 @Mlw @Mum1923 @Mitzibelle @J22A ,

We are in the middle of yet another week. How is everyone travelling so far this week?

For the first time in a while, the sun was out (but of course it turned a bit blustery later).

Hope you are all okay.

I'm here if you need a chat!
