Anika spent another disheartening Saturday evening feeling trapped in a cycle of negative thoughts and despair. Despite the potential for fun, she felt only frustration and boredom with her life. The clock showed just 8 PM, and time seemed to move slowly as she sat alone in her large house, feeling increasingly isolated. Reflecting on her relationships, Anika acknowledged that while she once had supportive friends, they were absent when she needed them most. This realization led her to accept her loneliness, though it did little to alleviate her distress. As the day progressed without any hope of improvement, she contemplated taking sleeping pills to escape her feelings but hesitated, still yearning for a better tomorrow. Anika's thoughts spiraled into self-blame as she lamented her past and the changes in her life, feeling stuck in a "vicious circle" with no solutions in sight. As the day came to an end, she expressed her exhaustion and frustration with life, questioning the purpose of continuing to live in such despair. In a moment of despair, she even considered ending her life, feeling hopeless and without excitement for the future.
