I think people in my life fall into 2 categories; those who are sick of hearing about how shit I feel and those who have no idea how shit I feel. Thanks to all those who have followed and read these tweets. I have no idea who most of you are but I’m feeling less alone today.


Tonight I’m so low I feel guilty about everything I’ve ever done, even the good things #depression


Oh my goodness #Elvanse where have you been all my life?! It’s like putting on glasses for the first time. My head is so quiet. #inattentiveadhd #adhdtwitter


Starting another new medication today. Not LC related but hopefully will help my overall wellbeing (which is pretty crap)


The emptiness and exhaustion are weighing me down so much. Everything is an effort.


I think may have the best therapist in the world but my time with him leaves me utterly exhausted.


I feel so lonely and sad that I physically ache. This is still marginally better than I felt on the tablets because at least I care that I’m alive now but it’s still unbearably shit. There are too many things crushing me that I think I’m too broken to be repaired #NEISvoid


I used to have an amazing career that I love working with people and a fun active lifestyle with my friends and family. I have children and a husband who have watched the light go out in my eyes as I have to stop doing the things I love.


#NEISvoid thank you for being a community I can be open with even though I’m fairly anonymous. Please can you all keep talking to me as the loneliness, physical and mental, is unbearable and you’ve no idea how much your replies keep me going

If someone’s chronic illness or disability feels inconvenient to you, just take a moment to imagine how inconvenient it is for them.


I hate depression so much. I hate that long covid has caused it. As a neurodivergent person I have lived with anxiety and it’s part of my life. Overwhelming sadness and a lack of hope are new and utterly shit.


Coming off the duloxetine has helped. Am now back to feeling ‘just’ completely miserable rather than compelling numb with misery and apathetic about life. I’ve avoided adhd meds for years but wonder whether they might now help my mental health. Seeing a psych this week 🤞🙏


People keep telling me how much better I look or even worse asking ‘so you’re recovered now?’ What do I say? I think people are sick of the truth but I don’t want to say I’m fine because people will have unrealistic expectations of me


#NEISvoid I’m in such a lonely place. When I reach out online it is to an empty void. I no longer reach out in real life after a small but significant number of people have made it known I’m an inconvenience. I am wondering what’s the point of me.


Prayers appreciated 😞


I’m not ok this evening 😞


Today I had therapy that was mindblowingly effective. I went in with very little expectation and practically no hope but that has changed dramatically.


Today has involved comfort eating, crying a bit, trying to sleep, crying again and dreading going out with friends tonight even though I know I’ll enjoy it when I’m there. Have I mentioned how much I hate my life at the moment? 💔 #NEISvoid


I haven’t posted for a while about #LongCovid as I’ve nothing new to say. It’s shit. It’s ruined my life. I don’t know how much more sad and hopeless life can get.


Why don’t Christians, especially church leaders, spend more time thinking about social justice, poverty, war, disability and mental health, rather than their obsession with peoples sexuality and gender. It baffles me and breaks my heart in equal measure.


I used to hate speaking on the phone but now I long for someone to call or message. Life is so lonely 😞
