Hi everyone,
I recently posted on here about '10 years and not coping' and I have to say I was completely surprised by the feedback.
Unfortunately I'm still in complete denial! I'm not looking after myself but I know I should be but I seem to be making sure everyone else is okay before putting myself first.
My doctor has now said that I need to start putting myself first but I still can't seem to do it. Unfortunately circumstances haven't improved/changed at all since I last posted. Work has now got busier - I'm working all day every day so I don't find time to do my medication. I still have no support from family and friends so I'm on my own - I have been doing this alone for a long time now and it's only now when it's beginning to get difficult.
I really think I need help but I don't know what I can do. I don't like the way I am and I know I need to change.
I easily help others when they need it but when it comes to me I don't take care of myself at all and I know I should.
If someone could please offer me some help/advice I would be forever thankful.
I need to have a life worth living and enjoy living once again.
