It seems like I will never get better. It's hard to eat and it's hard going out. Everything feels so overwhelming and the pain is unbearable sometimes. By the end of the day, I feel a little better, but then I go back to waking up at 5am in the morning scared and in total pain. I only get 6 hours of sleep and its taking a toll on me. I am also afraid of being alone during this time. Please help!
