Hello
Hi, feeling very low today, but determined to do somethings to improve my life. This was going to be a very brief intro, but I guess I have got alot on my mind at the mo' with no-one to share it with.
I first found the SA-UK site and these forums around Christmas, when I was very depressed, all that I had been feeling for years clicked into place. Unfortunately I didn't follow up by registering and have only just looked them up again after several months. Things were picking up over the course of the year, thanks to my very good CBT therapist, self-help books and me putting some effort in. However alot of my underlying problems are still here, which I haven't learnt to properly cope with and CBT is really hard work. Recently my life has become more intense, work wise and with other commitments which I am not coping well with, and I'm getting very stressed again and depressed. I feel so anxious most of the time, am not sleeping well and can't stop crying. I just want to escape from everything. My main desire is to learn how to say no to people without feeling so terribly guilty, and learn to put my needs first. That's me done for now. I hope you are all finding enough little glimmers of hope and happiness everyday to keep you going through your problems. Em |

Re: Hello
Hello Gwen
First I'd like to welcome you to the boards! Second I'd like to congratulate you on posting about yourself! Hope you find these boards to be really helpful...though of course posting on sauk isn't a cure lol. Keep up with all that offline work! It's great to know that you feel your CBT therapist is very good! CBT is f-ing hard work...you're right there....but it pays off....so be good to yourself and keep it up! -Jamie. |
