So I’ve been really struggling to keep things together. I’ve been suffering from mental health from the age of 11/12.

I grew up in a toxic and abusive environment. My parents had a toxic relationship where there was mental, emotional and physical abuse almost every other day.

It affected me mentally watching that growing up.

I struggled with depression and anxiety growing up but had no help to alleviate it.

I struggled throughout school, and in my own personal growth and development because of this. I’ve always been weak, timid, shy, anxiety ridden, living in my head, not being able to focus or concentrate and stupid because of it.

I’ve always seen people around me knowing exactly what the want in life and going to get it. On the other hand I’ve been confused, unsure and lost for the most part.

I am now 24 and still struggling to understand what the purpose of my life is. What I what to do in life. Where I want to go. Who I want be. I just don’t know what to do with me life.

I work a 9-5, 5 days a week. However when the weekend comes I am filled with anxiety about what to do with my life. I’m so frustrated at this point and want to give up.

I want to move out of home as the environment I grew up in still harbours resentment and hatred in me.

I hate living everyday not knowing what to do with myself or my life. I’m wasting away my life and that is causing me so much grieve.

Does anyone have any advise for me because I am so close to calling it quits!
