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’m not suppose to go to bed until after 10 @RiverSeal. I’ve had a shower. I’ve had meds. I’ve taken the dogs out. I’ve been listening to music and doing diamond art all night. I’m at a loss

Re: I can’t cope

It sounds like you have been doing great @Captain24! It's nearly 10 pm here in Melbourne but not sure where you are. Do you think you could tag a few of your friends here on the Forums and chat for a bit before bed? RiverSeal

Re: I can’t cope

I’m in NSW so it’s nearly 10 here @RiverSeal. I think it’s best just to break the rules and go to bed. I’ve already broken the by having a shower before 10.

It’s sad when you have to be given a schedule that must be followed. A shower time, a bedtime even what my room temperature must be. It doesn’t really say much for me does it.

Thank you. I know I don’t deserve it.

Re: I can’t cope

Routine in very important @Captain24 and it's possibly to establish a regular pattern so your body and mind and get used to it and relax and sleep when you need too. I have a routine and it keeps me on track and I know what I have to do and when. You have done the best thing that you could do and that's reaching out when you are not feeling great and that is brave and not easy to do. Have a think about all and things you did in your day and reflect positively for a few minutes before you go to bed. I'm sure you doggos appreciate all the love and care you give them, and you are a valued Member of the Forums community! ❤️ RiverSeal

Awesome. Can’t sleep. If I go to bed when I want to sleep comes quickly.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 Did you manage to get to sleep last night?

I was amazed to hear it was -3 overnight up there and also that you do have days in the single digits! I guess you would find those extra cold as you love extreme heat!

Yes, I bet. I hope your work goes well today...
