Something’s not right

I can’t cope

I can’t cope

Hi. I’m new and have never been in anything like this before.
I’m really struggling with depression at the moment and just need a place to vent.
there is no reason as to why I feel this way. I just hate myself and feel like I’m an unworthy and useless person. I don’t have a partner or many friends. I feel like I keep pushing them away when I’m down. I’m just not worthy of them. I hate life and just wish I would go to sleep and not wake up. I feel so much emotional pain inside but numb at the same time. None of this makes any sense but it just how I feel.

Re: I can’t cope

It was fine @Jynx no nastiness but I realised how much I can’t be around them. They affect me really badly. It doesn’t feel good.

Re: I can’t cope

Mm makes sense @Captain24 - you're better equipped now to recognise things that are draining, triggering, or otherwise wear on you. Do you think it's possible to find ways to minimise contact with them, at least in these early days of your return home?

Re: I can’t cope

I need to @Jynx otherwise it’s going to derail me and I don’t want that to happen especially so soon.

I already have some early warning signs but when the nurse from the clinic called me today she said some people do. I just need to make sure I give myself some care.

How are you going?

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 good looking out hun - also a chance to practice your boundaries if they decide they are someone entitled to your time and energy!

I'm glad you got that check in, and some feedback from the nurse. Always helps to have that normalising hey!

Not too shabby today, just trying to will myself to do some cleaning later after work haha.

Re: I can’t cope

It does normalise it @Jynx. I’m so tired. All I want to do is sleep. I got most things done today before my psych appointment. When I came home all I wanted to do was go to bed. I think it’ll be a really early night tonight.

Good luck with cleaning. I still have one room to go to get my house back to before I went away. I cleaned the main toilet today (I only use the ensuite one) and there was vomit under the seat! The bathroom sick was disgusting it took me 3 goes to get it clean.

Re: I can’t cope

That would be either the house sitter her boyfriend or whoever else was here and stayed. @Jynx I should’ve check the house more than I did. All I wanted was to get my living areas clean so I felt less

violated.

Re: I can’t cope

Ugh what a pain in the behind @Captain24 I'm sorry you've had to deal with that! Hope your house is soon back to feeling like your home, all safe and untouched.
