Hey @Liv_09
I can see that this is your first post here on Reach Out, so I wanted to wish you a warm welcome to the online community! I also wanted to commend you for being so brave and sharing what you have been experiencing with us all. Opening up can be hard and scary, but you have done it, which is amazing💚
It sounds like things have been incredibly difficult for you, especially with these feelings of being depressed, anxious, and tired. Please know that you are not alone in your experience and we are all here to support you the best we can.
Have you attempted to talk about these feelings and your experiences with someone you trust, like a family member or a friend? It is okay if you do not feel comfortable or able to discuss things with them, but would you be open to talking to a mental health professional or even a GP? For me, when I was struggling with my own mental health, I opened up to my family, who then supported me to see a GP and a counsellor, which has truly helped me in the long run.
I can see that @LilacLeopard14 has given you Kids Helpline as a resource, as well as a very useful article from Reach Out on how to get and use a Mental Health Care plan, which is stunning, and I hope you will find them useful! 🤗
There is always ReachOut's PeerChat available where you can talk to a Peer Worker who has lived experience with mental health challenges.
I hope some of this helps!
