Morning anxiety and sadness

I am a sufferer of anxiety and low self esteem always had my problems but going back to work I am back at my worse again using techniques I’ve learnt but I am so sad I just want to cry and hide away . Please tell me this will improve . All I want is my mum saying come on you can do it I am stronger than I think but telling self this just isn’t the same as a mum who loves and believes in you.
