I know it’s hard when other stuff is going on but you need to take time for yourself. I had to be convinced of this, so I know it’s not simply a case of stopping everything else.

a mindfulness app could help you get that 10 minutes to just calm your mind. My psychologist always says that mental fatigue is one of my biggest issues. I feel guilty taking time for myself, but if I don’t I’m just too tired to deal with anything properly and it only gets worse.

maybe even some brief online or telephone therapy sessions. I find talking to someone to help best.
