Hi Linfit I'm writing from a good place at the moment the but have had many ups and downs in my life. You're having a really tough time so it's important to be kind to yourself and not put yourself under extra pressure. Is it possible to plan something, however small if money's tight, to look forward to? What the other ladies have said about eating regularly is right because anxiety can take stronger hold if your blood sugar is low. Taking regular exercise is important, I think walking is especially good, fresh air, getting the heart rate up a little and appreciating what you see around you (mindfulness is also worth considering). Keeping a routine helps me when I'm low, reduces the amount of time that youre alone with your thoughts/anxieties. Have you got a dog? Or know someone with one? Animals are therapeutic whether it's stroking them or taking one for a walk. Since entering peri I'm in my longest 'even' patch. I put this down to the supplements I take as well as the exercise. I take multivitamins plus high dose vit C, B and E, along with evening primrose and siberian ginseng. My daughter has anxiety at the moment due to GCSE pressure and she's been recommended breathing exercises (you could google) and making sure she does stuff she enjoys - for her it's a hot lush bath and a face mask. The school nurse even recommended ginger biscuits to nibble on to fight her nausea. I know it's hard to follow advice sometimes but one small change could make a difference. Good luck, there is always light at the end of the tunnel xx
