HI Stable.
New on here and finding my way round probably very badly.
I am also in a mess my mind especially. I have been very lucky since shock diagnosis of it coming back thirty years later. My team are superb though I don't always appreciate their work and effort. Regarding the sadness, crying and now being diagnosed with depression, I am in weekly contact through the local hospital with the therapy department. A mix of occupational and physio. Occupation have directed me to a mindfulness course both on the NHS website and other contributors all for free. Only started last week and it is tough going, telling your brain you must concentrate on a particular subject for ten minutes.
Last night was dreadful, dark thoughts, no sleep and cold. I desperately tried to get through the door I walked to in my session. I got to the door but could not reach the other side where the woods, ferns and glorious fishpond were waiting just for me. No matter how I tried my mind ? feet would not take me over he threshold. Something though must have worked because I did indeed fall asleep and had quiet a reasonable couple of hours.
Why don't you contact your team and ask about the many and varied options, something someone will be able to help. Mindfulness is something I just fell upon out of the blue years ago, I find it very hard, so I am determined to train my brain.
Hope this is of use. Lots of hugs
