Thank you for sharing what you’ve been going through. Experiencing persistent sadness, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and sleep difficulties for several months can be overwhelming, and you don’t have to handle this alone.
Based on your symptoms, it would be helpful to consult a psychologist for therapy and, if needed, a psychiatrist for an evaluation of medication options. Many people benefit from a combination of both.
Therapies like CBT, trauma-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches can help with intrusive thoughts, overthinking, emotional regulation, and sleep issues. As a counselling psychologist, I can support you with CBT, mindfulness techniques, and structured therapeutic interventions to help you feel more grounded and in control.
Next Steps
In the meantime, gentle steps like grounding exercises, maintaining a routine, journaling your thoughts, and limiting late-night screen time may provide some relief.
