I can’t cope

Captain24Senior Contributor16 June 2022, 9:48 pm AEST

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 glad you've been resting @Captain24 I'm surprised you were able to be out and about earlier, when I've had it it just knocked me out and all I could do was lay on the couch and nap all day. Are you feeling like you're going to be okay to work?

Re: I can’t cope

This one has knock me for six @Ru-bee.

i don’t have any sick leave so i have to go. If I can’t do it I’ll come home. I don’t like coming home in the dark though. I have to drive slowly as there is to many kangaroos. I takes me about an hour.

Re: I can’t cope

I made it through nightshift but I feel really horrible. I’ve been taking cold and flu tablets and OTC pain relief. Nothing feels like it’s working.

My whole body is aching and my head is pounding. My throat is so sore that it hurts to swallow.

One more night to go and then I can rest.

I do feel bad that I could be infecting others but I need to work. Someone at work must have given it to me though. I can’t afford not to with all the appointments I have.

Re: I can’t cope

There no getting into a doctors here. It’s a 4-6 week wait. @Eve7. Your medical system is in a huge crisis. The two doctors surgeries aren’t taking in any new patients. It’s 1 1/2 hours to the next town.

Im sorry you are in hospital. Is it helping?
