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

Hey @tyme

Im just sitting here crying. I don’t want to work anymore. I don’t want to be home. I don’t want anything. I don’t want to be alive.

I feel alone, sad, despondent, scared, uneasy, hurt.

Are you at work at the moment @Captain24 ?

I know how much you used to look forward to working. I'm so sorry things have turned. Do you think it is the work issue?

Or do you think it's your view of work?

Or is it the things that have recently happened?

Re: I can’t cope

I got home from work at 7:45 @tyme. I go back tomorrow night.

Ive lost all my confidence at work. Im not good enough. I’m useless. It’s embarrassing how bad I am.

I don’t think it’s just work. I think work is a really big factor. I don’t see much that’s good in my life. Work was my escape and now it’s a big factor of my

life.

So much is going through my head. It’s distressing.

Re: I can’t cope

I am so tired. I had a good sleep but have woken up really groggy.

Is it my depression? Is it the noise in my head? Is it exhaustion from working? Is it just the fact that I’m down right useless? Is it the hopelessness? Is it because I’m not worthy of being alive? Or isn’t a combination of all of the above?

Hey @Captain I'm around this morning if you want a chat? Sounds like a crappy combo of feelings this morning

Hello @ElephantEar3 😊

Re: I can’t cope

I feel so much negativity @ElephantEar3. I feel like there is nothing positive in my life other than my dogs. It just feels all too hard right now. I know ‘feelings aren’t facts’ but it doesn’t stop the hurt inside.

Re: I can’t cope

I think most of deal better with facts than feelings, eh?

Is there anything we can do to help? Hi @Shaz51 ! Maybe we can get a discussion going to switch focus onto what we enjoy?

Re: I can’t cope

I’ve just been to the Remembrance Day service. @ElephantEar3

Im about to head home and go to bed for nightshift.

Feelings just over rule. I am getting better at reframing but I just don’t believe it.

How are you going?

In response to: Re: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

Ah, well Remembrance Day can be a difficult time in its own right, let alone feeling upset.

I'm ok. I have been incredibly busy in the new role but the team here are so great! I adore the forum members for all their incredible support of each other. Makes being part of the team very special.

Rest up and hope work goes smoothly for you.
