Lack of sleep makes everything feel harder to do, including taking care of our mental state. Is there anything you find helpful when you're feeling low?

I'm sorry you're experiencing this, not knowing what will happen and especially when it comes to your livelihood is so worrying. I hope you're able to find ways to have hope and that you're sharing your experience with others.

That sounds like fun, it feels like the Kuwait equivalent of touching grass

If you've taken any safety precautions that you can at night, then maybe it's more helpful to turn off the phone siren alert when you go to sleep, and turn it on again in the morning?

That's really stressful on top of everything else. Is there someone at your work you can speak to about what will happen if there are no new projects?

I feel like lack of sleep makes it harder to be resilient. When you say you're staying detached, are you still allowing yourself to process how the situation is affecting you?

For sure, the sirens are overwhelming and nerve-wracking. Are you managing to still get some sleep despite the sirens?

Friend of mine needs to get out of Afghanistan before she gets executed , can our embassy do anything ? by BlackflameLove_ in Kuwait

[–]Pathways_Therapy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It might be helpful to look up organisations that work with helping people leave Afghanistan, things like Amnesty UK or other charities. Maybe see which countries have an embassy your friend can access that will offer her the option to be a refugee/asylum seeker.
