You are getting wonderful advice here. Life is not a race. You DO have a job right now - taking care of yourself and getting healthy with whatever help professionals advise you to take. You might want to contact your state chapter of NAMI - they have support groups and other resources for you. Google the name of your state and NAMI and links will come up.

One correction to @JMS357’s advice - you text the word HOME to 741741 to get the Crisis Text Line. The volunteers are really helpful.

Good luck to you. Keep us posted!
