@piratethumb200 Hello piratethumb200, thank you for sharing how you're feeling with us. I think many of us have also been struggling with our mental health in these difficult times. Let me tag some other members who can potentially share their thoughts and advice with you.
Hello everyone, how are you today? Have you ever felt like you were spiraling into depression? What did you do to get out of it? Do you have any advice or resources to share with pirate thumb?

@piratethumb200 I completely understand what you mean. It's easy for us to get bogged down and for our thoughts to spiral when we're basically cooped up at home and when the world feels a bit apocalyptic when we do go out.
I don't know if this will help you, but what has helped me recently is cutting off the outside noise that's making things so dark. So no social media, no telly, no radio, hearing about all the bad news, deaths, predictions, politics, etc., all that just raises my anxiety so I shut it off. Instead I try to clear my head, there's a nice forest not far from me, so I try to go there for a walk a few times a week to get out the house and "clear the cobwebs" and I write in my journal. Getting my thoughts out on paper helps.

I feel if I write down my thoughts the image of me being some kind of monster will be like written proof just a bit nerve racking as I've never asked for help till now like
