Life can definitely feel overwhelming! Try to find daily joy in your life. Even if it’s something really small you can start there. Try to find something that has brought you joy that day-even if it’s something like being grateful for a hot shower. You should also try to participate in therapy to discuss some of these emotions you’re feeling. Maybe your therapist will be able to offer resources and help. Lastly, set goals for yourself. There is a purpose for you! Set some short term goals, daily, weekly or monthly and take steps towards achieving those goals.
