Hello,

I feel like my partner is my only emotional support. Sure, there are a few others I could risk confiding in but it’s too hard to trust them.

I’ve been taking care of my sick partner the last several days immediately after recovering from my own sickness and it’s been draining. I cut ties with my app therapist about a week ago because I didn’t feel that she was fully invested in helping me.

Because I lack and/or don’t trust my support circle to give me the encouragement I need right now, I’m relying on myself to give me what I need. I’m trying to eat healthfully, get plenty of rest, and exercise daily but turns outs, it’s not enough. I was relatively sufficient and able to manage over the weekend when I didn’t have to work but I had a day back at work yesterday and I’m feeling more overwhelmed than ever.

I’m writing this to you at 2:30 am because I woke up from my partner blowing his nose and just had to reach out to someone, somewhere for support.

I just feel really alone right now.
