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

Nah.. I didn’t get outta bed because I couldn’t face another day. @Jynx. I have heaps I need to get done. So much. Now tomorrow is bigger and I’m stressing that I’ll feel the same and can’t do anything. I hate myself. I’m just useless.

Re: I can’t cope

I can’t cook either @Blackcloud. But I’m a failure in everything.

Sorry your essay is so hard. I hope you can get through it

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 ohh I’m sure you’re good at something, or there’s at least a few or some things you’re generally good at!! 🫂

thank you! I was able to write a draft of the introduction today so that’s something im glad I was able to do and I myself should proud of that 👊🏼🥲 but with the amount of readings and the note taking I have to do, that’s where it all becomes like ugh, and then you’d have to come up with what to write for the body paragraphs next and all 🤧

Everything @Jynx. Clean the disgusting house do loads of washing. Change the sheets and doona cover. Bath the dogs. Now the lawns. Iron. Shower annd wash my hair. Absolutely everything. Everything you can think of needs doing. I’ve got no food. But I don’t care about food. I just wish I wasn’t here to deal with anything. I just can’t do it.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 we will be chore buddies again then 😫😅 My house is soooo messy right now!! But we can only do what we can do, one thing at a time!!

Wow do you have a lot of things that need ironing? I don't think I've ever ironed anything that wasn't a punk patch for my battle jacket!! Oh and my dad's shirts when I was a kid lol.

@Blackcloud ahaha nooooo you stuck with fine artistry when you wanna be therapising!! Meh, I think it's good to do the 'wrong course' - I did a bachelor in media and communications studies when I first left school. Didn't use the degree at all, BUT I still learned a LOT!!
