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 have to get up at 4:30 and I’m still awake. Being awake so late is not what I need right now. The thoughts won’t stop circulating. They’re getting louder and stronger.

Re: I can’t cope

We had a meeting with the General Manager. There was about 60

people in the room. He was telling us how we were getting a new dig unit (I know it makes no sense to you). I had a question and I went over and over it in my head. When he asked if there was any questions… I piped up and said yes. Then I asked my water cart question. I didn’t get the answer I wanted but I spoke up in a room with all those people and didn’t stumble over my words and I didn’t feel stupid. I know everyone wanted an answer to my question.

That was huge for me @Jynx

Re: I can’t cope

It was beating a little fast @Jynx. My question was the talk of the crew for the day. But in a positive way. Someone finally asked that question. It felt a little bit good.

The GM did stop me on the way out and we had a one on one discussion. He listened to what I had to say and he said it all depends on the contractors but he took me seriously.

In a world that’s really shitty and dark. I mean really dark and I’m not sure I can answer those questions, it was a little positivity that I found. I am a little proud of myself.
