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

I can understand that @Captain24

It is hard sometimes to know how much to say and not say.

I've had people called on me before (not by Sane) and it was hard. Hard for everyone involved. It opened up a can of worms with hubby.

Re: I can’t cope

I’m sorry you had to go through it @Snowie. It’s not pleasant.

Im struggling with what I can and can’t say. Whether it doesn’t matter what I say as long as I say I’m safe. Even if I’m not.

Re: I can’t cope

I can understand wanting to be truthful @Captain24

There have been times I have said I am safe when I haven't been.

We come on here sometimes in our darkest moments looking for that comfort/support. We pour our hearts out at times and say things on here that we don't even say to our supports. It can be so hard at times knowing what to say and probably even more, knowing what not to say.

Please know you are not alone in feeling this way. Please know that we are here for you.

Re: I can’t cope

Yeah.. I badly need support and I’m really struggling right now but I have to just deal with it @Snowie.

I don’t want to cause any problems.

Re: I can’t cope

You are not causing any problems @Captain24 You don't just have to 'deal with it'

It takes a lot of strength and courage to speak up and say that you are struggling. It takes even more courage to be able to ask for that help/support. you have done that.

I acknowledge that it is scary.

Re: I can’t cope

I just give up on it all. @Jynx @Snowie. It’s just all too much tonight and I just can’t do it. I can’t work out what is right what is wrong so I’ll just try and get myself through tonight on my own.

All that matters is that I say I am safe.

Thanks though
