You feel like you're caught in a relentless cycle of depression and anxiety. You might often wake up feeling deep dread or suddenly feel anxious without a clear reason. You're not alone, though it can feel like it. Your struggles with these feelings might have started from things that happened when you were younger, which still affect how you react today. Understanding this is an important step toward managing your emotions better.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, tired, hopeless or lacking joy; like your emotions are uncontrollable or that they do not match with reality; that your worry is getting out of hand or that there is no longer any point, then it might be a good time to seek some support. ​ We are social creatures, and despite what our modern society might have us believe, we all need human connection to function. Seeking support is a huge sign of strength – the strength to actually reach out and let someone in, in order to start the healing process. ​ If you can relate to this or if you have set yourself a personal development goal please reach out.
