Hey there! I understand how difficult it must be for you to deal with everything that has been going on. I wish I could tell you exactly what is going on, but unfortunately it is necessary to understand your concerns in a detailed manner before concluding something. However, on the bright side I will be able to guide you through to get help. First off, let me tell you that you have taken the right step, reaching out for help. A lot of people make the mistake of not reaching out at the right time and I am proud of you for realising it when you needed help and for reaching out!
The best thing you can do is to consult a therapist. Since you have been having difficulty in multiple perspectives like sleeping, appetite, intrusive thoughts, negativity and more it is best that you consult a professional to get a reliable and effective treatment plan. A psychologist is a mental health professional who would be able to guide you through and help you deal with your concerns. Your therapist will be able to determine which concern needs immediate attention and which ones can be dealt with a little later into your therapy sessions. Here are a few quick changed you can make in your life to help you feel better while you figure out how to set your therapy sessions:
Make exercise/stretching a habit- Even if it is a quick 10 minute workout, make sure to squeeze in a little time for your therapy sessions.
Eat easily digestible food.
Take deep breaths when you experience negative thoughts or when you feel moody.
Talk to your loved ones for support. Venting out your feelings can always make you feel better.
Look for support groups- A support group is a safe space for you to share your feelings and meet other people who are in the same boat as you are. Talking to people who are going through the same concerns and have similar experiences are of great help.
