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

Do your treating team know your not taking your meds @Captain24 all sorts of things can happen if you go off them cold turkey!…. Trust me I know!

Re: I can’t cope

No they don’t @Bow. I don’t see them very often. I don’t have an appointment with my GP or an appointment with my Pdoc. I do see my CM next week though.

If it takes me out then that’s ok.

Hi @Captain24

It is good to hear that reached out for support.

I am really concerned about you. Can you think of anything that can make you feel a bit better? Maybe a cuppa?

We are here with you

Re: I can’t cope

Sorry everyone fr how I’ve been. It’s really tough right now and I just don’t want to be alive but I need to back it off in here and stop making it all about me.

Im at work and will be for the next 3 days so you won’t have to hear from me as much.

Sorry.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I'm concerned you've stopped taking your meds - I knew you had stopped your sleep meds but I didn't know you had stopped your psych meds? 😢

That might explain why you're feeling so low and battling such high levels of SI?

I wanted to say - your mother is there to look after your father if he has a hip replacement. I really hope you can go in for your second admission and not let the hip replacement stop you. You are not being selfish at all.

I can empathise withe the heavy body feeling you mentioned 🫂

Well done for making it to the Irish dance performance when you didn't think you could.

I hope work goes OK for you now and the next 3 days...

Re: I can’t cope

Hi @Captain24,

I am so sorry to hear about how things are going and how you're feeling. When is your next appointment with your GP/psych/pdoc? It might be a good idea to let them know what's been happening and about your meds situation.

We're all here for you, and I know it might just be words on a screen, but there are actual human beings behind them who care a lot about you ❤️ Please stay safe
