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’s peaceful being home without my babies. No one fighting for my attention. But it is quiet and lonely at the same time.

I need to just enjoy it while it lasts.

Re: I can’t cope

I love having the house to myself @Captain24 of course dog and cats are always here, but they don’t usually make a noise. I had a couple of hours this morning.

@Bow truth!

Reminds me of that meme that's like, 'injuries as a kid: Fell off bike, scraped knee; injuries as an adult: Slept weird, neck will never feel the same' 🤣

Re: I can’t cope

You’re just a youngin @Jynx. I’m well into my 40’s

It is quiet @Bow but at least I got both my Lego kits done without trying to stop Jett from taking the pieces.

Definitely feeling those aches and pains. I sit on the floor at a coffee table to do Lego. It’s sooo hard to get up.

Re: I can’t cope

Oh true @Captain24 I legit thought you were in your 20's... for some reason! Really goes to show how accurate that meme is eh? 😂

But I totally feel you on the Lego owwies!! I get so focused on it I don't even realise until everything below my belly button is rife with tingly pins n needles!

@Bow niiiice! I occasionally get carded still, which means some people think I'm actually under 18?! Just... how?
