Been going through a period where my mental state is all types of fucked. On top of my poor mental health, my car isn’t reliable and my job is cutting my hours. I know this place can be harsh, but could I have some kind words thrown my way please?

If you can, talk to a therapist. If you can't, do your damnedest to find a way to keep going!

Don't be afraid to ask for help. There's no shame in talking about mental health. Prozac worked miracles for me.
