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

@Captain24 haha woops! Now you'll have to count worms instead of sheep to help get you off to sleep 😝

Hmm... Well I'd say Q-Life would be a good starting place, they've been my go-to (I legit only juuuust missed out on volunteering for them a few years back! And one of my partners used to volly there too, and also shared very good things). They've got a helpline, a webchat, and resources and stuff on their website. You might also find some luck in making a post over on Reddit? The r/asexuality subreddit is legit soooo supportive.

I'm always happy to chat about it too! But if you're not keen to do so in this space I totally understand. Take your time with it, be gentle with yourself, and may this path (whichever way it leads) bring you closer to your authentic self 😊

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Jynx.

Maybe if I can work out and accept this side of me then maybe other stuff will fall into place.

Are you on this weekend at all?

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 could be a stepping stone for sure, so many little puzzle pieces to slot into place in recovery hey? We're complex little beings aren't we!

Could also open up some more opportunities for creating social connections, if you were to find a cool local queer group or something!

Nah it's my Saturday off! And uh... then I'm on leave until the 15th! I had too much leave building up and decided I needed to finally get stuck into de-cluttering so I'm gonna be ripping my whole house apart all next week, lol.
