So, I’ve been dealing with depression, anxiety, and stuff related for a while now. Like 10 years or so. I M(25) can’t seem to figure out a routine or coping mechanism that really works for me. I’ve dealt with the loss of a family member when I was young and then mostly family problems and internal thoughts and feelings of how I see myself and how’s it’s not good enough. I can’t really stay positive almost ever and if I do it’s short lived. I struggle just with the day to day. I have a decent job but have no direction in life to me. 

I struggle sleeping. I have for a long time now. I can never stay asleep. And rarely feel rested when I wake up. Some nights the depression keeps me up where my mind won’t shut off and it digs me deeper in the whole where I feel hopeless. I’ll have panic attacks when it happens to the point where I get sick. 

Just looking for some guidance on some coping mechanisms and ways I can help myself try to manage this thing called life and it’s stressors especially with how hard everything feels to do. TIA
