    It's been a while since I've posted here and I wish I could say things have improved.

    I'm still in debt up to my eyeballs and beyond and don't seem to be making any headway. BF and I are still together but hanging by a thread and my mental health has taken a hammering lately.

    I would love to be able to run away from everything and not look back but my head and my thoughts would come with me. Just want to cry.

    Yeah, and I've been on and off meds for a long time. On them at the moment and have been for the last year and a half but they don't seemto be doing much at the moment. I've also tried cognitive behavioural therapy but my therapist was useless so I didn't get anywhere with that.

    I just don't know what's wrong with me at the moment.
