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

Thanks @Ru-bee

The psych is important but being in church would also help with the acceptance of myself. The parts that go against the church.

Thats the one you’ve been talking about. Is it there first one?

I haven’t really don’t much more of him. I’ve been really busy. I definitely won’t have it finished before I go away.

Extra prn and I didn’t get any sleep. Instead they are watching me. They are waiting for me. I can’t take the dogs out. They might get them.

Re: I can’t cope

Is it punishment for my sins? Going against my beliefs? Am I a bad person? Worse than I thought? Is that why they want me? Is that why they are watching?

Re: I can’t cope

I’m getting scared. My house is locked so they can’t get in. They are judging me. They are saying nasty things, they are calling me a sinner. They are trying to look in the windows. They can’t, the blinds are closed.

Are you watching me @Jynx. Are you judging me?

Re: I can’t cope

I'm not sure who you're talking about @Captain24 but if there's people harassing you, perhaps it might be best to call 000?

I am not watching you at all hun, nor would I ever judge you. I'm worried about you though! You deserve to feel safe in your own home!

Re: I can’t cope

hey @Captain24, i'm rav3n (the newbie, nice to meet you again!)

sounds like you've been experiencing a lot of conflicting feelings recently. i'm sorry that you're feeling hurt and overwhelmed by thoughts, it can be quite difficult figuring out what 'right' for us and what to believe in.

personally i think it's very human of you to question these things and feel doubt - it's usually the first step to finding the answer? i've had many instances where i've questioned my faith and identity, and having strategies/systems in place to help manage those overwhelming thoughts/doubts was super important in helping me find my answers (its hard to make decisions when we're overwhelmed right?) - i was wondering what you do to calm those overwhelming thoughts and ground yourself when you feel lost?

Re: I can’t cope

The police are watching me too @Jynx. They just want to take me away. They will lock me up.

I feel like everyone is watching and judging. I deserve it but I don’t like it.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I know how awful and invasive it feels to feel like I'm being watched. It's awful. I do sincerely doubt the police would be watching you though hun, they really don't have any reason to - nor would it be even remotely legal for them to do so.

What do you think has prompted these feelings hun? Did something happen that's left you feeling quite unsafe?
