Thank you for sharing your wonderfully honest account. I expect many others have had similar feelings during this time and I think it's great that you've started a dialogue about mental health and support. I agree with you that a regular sense of progress is really important for well being and self-confidence. Thanks again and I'm happy to hear that things are improving for you as 'normal' daily life starts to return. Take care!
