Hi there.

It's true that it isn't uncommon that people who struggle with depression or other mental health problems struggle more at night than any other time. I often think a reason for this is because we're in our rooms alone and we can over think and feel lonely in it and get quite down and sad which can be really hard. Does that make sense?

Maybe at night you could change your routine a little? Have your tea, then go for a walk. Get in and have a nice bath and get into your pjs and watch some good tv or read a nice book and write about how you feel to make it external instead of internal. Maybe even do some yoga or relaxation and avoid caffeine at night. Get into bed and try and sleep but if you can't and it's making you feel depressed, get up and do something easy but nice and that you enjoy to try and make you feel a little better but something that won't stimulate your mind too much.

If there's ever anything you want to talk about, we're always here for you so don't be afraid to reach out to us.

Look after yourself,
Jessie.
