I’ve moved to my family home for a while while the lock down is on.

I feel lonely at my flat, I was struggling with my mental health and to keep myself safe but, at my parents I feel just as bad but sometimes worse sometimes better. But either way right now there is no good choice.

I’m struggling so much with

• disorder eating thoughts,
• anxiety,
• ocd thoughts,
• the voices, although Gods talking to me is reassuring,
• Suicidal thoughts,
• self harm.

I’m struggling with a lot.

I’m not sure what to do to help.

I’ve tried…

• Sticking to healthy eating,
• Drinking less alcohol, although I find sometimes drinking alcohol helps,
• Using things in my self soothe box,
• Calling the mental health team,
• Using the prn I was given,
• Using cbd oil,
• Relaxation playlist on Spotify,
• Podcasts on relaxation and breathing,
• Yoga

Is there anything else I can try, I’m seriously struggling and and help would be appreciated?

What I need to do while I’m at my parents is…

• Ignore the negative comments,
• Ignore the negative behaviour,
• Ignore the sarcastic comments and faces,
• Ignore the attention seeking behaviour from others around me.

Things will be tough while I’m here but it’s ok, it won’t be forever, I need to remember that.

I can survive this rough patch.
