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 along the same lines too in terms of my weight and my back. I also need to focus on more strength-based exercises. @Captain24

Oh well... in time.

Just look after yourself for now.

Hey @Captain24 back pain does suck. (ED not speaking here), but I do find keeping myself active really does help and keeping myself below a certain weight).

im glad they are treating you in there and listening to your needs.

Re: I can’t cope

We're all on the same page. Back pain and weight. @Bow @Captain24 . And true, it's not ED speaking. It's fact.

I spoke to a doc and he said that even when I have back pain, I should still move around as much as I can rather than nurse the pain. However, I know this is not for everyone in case it can make things worse.

Re: I can’t cope

Im trying to keep active and I want to continue it at home. @Bow @tyme. I think the worst thing i can do is stop. Plus if i ever want to get out of here i need to try. Also I have to work out the weight issue.

I have exercises from the physio and the gym is open in the morning so I will do that again.

I’ll try and get pain relief and go for a walk in the morning but I may have to Uber back. I don’t think those hills climbing back up helped.


I have managed to have a shower and put some washing on so that’s an achievement I guess. I just wish there was actually hot water not the like warm water.

Re: I can’t cope

Nah I haven’t been following along @Jynx. Feel free to use it. I don’t have the capacity to keep up with anything.

Im really not doing well. I think it’s withdrawal from my anti-depressant. Plus I have severe back pain. I’m at the point that I don’t want to do this life anymore.

How are you?

Re: I can’t cope

There is nothing anyone can do @Jynx. I’ve given up. I’ve lost my will to live.

There’s no strong pain relief written up either.

Re: I can’t cope
