I suffer from severe depression and anxiety disorders as well as bipolar disorder. I fo to group meetings and therapy 3x weekly. And still I need more. I've been through some major trauma starting when I was 14.

I don’t ;—; and that’s a problem
There's a lot of help out there. You just have to reach out and be willing to admit you need help. Its nothing to be ashamed of.
I have lots of anxiety too and it helps me to make a routine and plan things. Know that you are not alone and we are here to help❤
I live a very routine life. It gets so boring doing the same thing day after day and week after week but if I try to venture out and try something new, my anxiety heightens. Thanks for your support.
I’ve asked my parents for therapy but they are convinced I just need to pray more. Anyways, usually I just think, “What would feel good in this moment?” Sometimes I need to rant (I don’t have anyone I can rant to so I have a page of rants in my notes app), and sometimes it’s as simple as a shower or chocolate chip cookies. I do those things and try to think of something I like about myself to reassure me.
Journaling is a good thing for some people. I have positive affirmations hanging on my make up mirror to try to keep myself in check. Pray without ceasing. I pray constantly through out the day. Who better to talk to than our creator. Try to figure out what's bothering you and what you can do about it. If you cannot change the situation, let it go. If you can, change it. Those are things I learned in therapy. Sometimes it works. Love yourself always. Keep pushing for therapy. And reachout to others that you trust. There are alot of crisis line that you can find online and they are free. Just an ear to listen and guide you in a healthy and confidential way. Best wishes. ❤
