Hi All

I am from Melbourne and have CPTSD (due to childhood sexual assault), depression and anxiety.

Im not in a good head space atm and feel like everything is out of my control. 

I've been sick for weeks due to an ongoing stressor at work and cant quit but cant see an end in site.

I have a psych appointment on Monday and an appointment Tuesday with my doctor.

I am also a mum of two boys and had pre and post natal with them and spent time in a psych ward where I was put on medication.

I've joined cause I dont know what else to do anymore
