You are going to end your business. Acknowledging that your business can no longer continue will certainly have an emotional impact on you.

The decision to stop is rarely easy and will likely cause a variety of emotions. You may feel powerless and worry about finances and your future. There may also be frustration, anger, and uncertainty. As much as you want to act rationally, emotions can get in the way.

It is good to know that there is a lot of help available, such as from official agencies, organisations, or individuals who are ready to help you.
