I'm so sorry to hear things are hard. I think the letter is a good idea that will bring you into the here and now. When I have trouble remembering the good things, I try to remember compliments I've received. Maybe it's time to conjure up some of those to help with the assignment. It's also very encouraging to hear you have a friend IRL who can help you through those bleak times. One or two (or seven or eight) backup plans will ensure your safety.
If it's any help, if there has been any greater good or meaning from the pain you've experienced, I know that your empathy and understanding have gotten me through so many hard times in the last few months. You have an emotional intuition that can sense my pain and desperation though you've never met me and I live on the other side of the country. So, if nothing else, your life has helped me endure enough to see another day. For that, I am very grateful.
