Hi MA, great to hear from you. We are here to be support and you can bring what’s happening in your life here it doesn’t have to be pretty and can be extremely difficult. I can certainly relate.
As such, no need to apologize for voicing what you’re going through in your feelings. Great job also reaching out to your mom. Good counsel from her.
I think it’s important for you to identify who is there for you right now, mom, close friends, therapist, family dr, family? Let your team know what you need from them. I learned from a friend who went through similarly painful challenges. His therapist told him to pick up the phone and call friends to get together and not stay isolated scrolling or texting ( or saying you are doing that).
I have been inviting myself over to friends places for support. What is going well for you? You are doing what you can to get through this. This is an acute trauma stage. How is your appetite/nutrition, sleep, exercise, and relaxation?
