What To Do To Get Rid Of Bad Feeling?

Hi,

It's been a year now that my boyfriends flat got broken into an I woke up to the burglars standing over my bed. I had a few counselling sessions that helped but I knew the biggest healer would be time. I'm not as bad as I was a year ago but I still have restless nights an I am very scared in my own home. I often think about suicide but i know I wouldn't actually hurt myself I just want what im feeling to go away. I'm not sure what else I can do to stop these negative thoughts ?

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you need supportive therapy from a psychologist. There is no need to take any antidepressant. In case, you feel sleep disturbance, you can take benzodiazepine on sos basis. You can also try relaxation exercise, that would keep you calm or relax.

Thanks
