You’ve hit the wall. You can’t do any more, can’t manage your stress and can’t imagine struggling like this for the rest of your life. Things are so unpleasant and uncomfortable that you know you need help, but don’t know where to look or who can provide what you need. You can’t go back to when you were happier, and you can’t move forward like this. You need someone who is going to understand your concerns and can objectively and reassuringly help you feel better.
