I think it’s awesome that you’re reaching out and trying things like mindfulness and professional help. Those are really positive steps, even if they don’t always feel like they are making a difference right away. Sometimes, it’s about finding what works for us individually. Have you tried journaling? It’s helped me to dump all those swirling thoughts out of my head.
I also want to remind you that it’s perfectly okay to feel alone sometimes, even when you know others are going through their own struggles. Just know that you’re not truly alone in this – there’s a whole community here that gets it.

And while it may feel like an uphill battle now, keep holding onto that hope. Sometimes, even small progress can lead to big changes over time. If you ever want to chat more or share what you’ve tried that’s worked (or even what hasn’t), I’m right here. You’ve got this!
