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.

Mow the lawns... again? @Captain24 Argh... brings back memories of all those lawn mowing moments.

Oh, so you don't have work till Monday. That's a nice 'break'. I know you'll keep busy though.

I've written my lists for Saturday and Sunday.. got a lotta things to catch up on and do so it'll be super busy for me.

I can hear how much you are trying. I hear it is unplesant, but I hope things ease soon.

Talent? Boy oh boy! So much was impromptu but we had singers, dancers, news reporters, artists, spaghetti-tower makers, poets, jokers, brains..... the whole lot... Nothing was sane about it lol. I'm still laughing as I think back to the 2 days.

Re: I can’t cope

We’ve had a bit of rain and I don’t want it to grow too long so it’s hard to do. I want it to stay quick and easy and no room for snakes! @tyme

I’ve been trying to stay busy but I’ve been failing. I still haven’t completed the lists from the last 2 days and tomorrow is a new one. I was looking at my lists today and just couldn’t focus. I could start a task. It was like I was scattered and everything was bouncing around inside my brain. I don’t know if it’s the med decrease or if with the decrease the adhd is showing through. I did finally end up doing a bit though.

Glad you have stuff written down. I find it overwhelming but easier at the same time. I like to cross things off!


Spagetti-tower maker sounds interesting.

It sounds like it has lifted you so much. I can feel it through the screen.

Sounds like a real battle tonight, eh @Captain24 ? I hope it gets easier for you.

I look forward to connecting with you over the weekend when I see you next.

I'm buggered even though these last two days have been super awesome. And yes, I totally agree that you would be able to 'feel' the vibe through the screen 🙂

Take care Cap! See you Sunday.

Hey @Captain24 ,

I'm just popping in to say hi. I was thinking of the forums this morning, so I decided to hop on to see how you were.

I'll respond when I'm on next 🙂

Hey @tyme

Ive just gotten up and I'm feeling ok. Not sure I’ll get the lawns done but I want to complete the rest of my lists including tomorrow’s

Right now I feel confident in it. But if I don’t get the lists done there is still tomorrow.

I would really like to take the dogs for a walk this afternoon so I will see how I go.


Starting the day positive!

How are you? How are you coping with your social overload? I hope you get some of your lists done too.

Re: I can’t cope

My mojo has waned @tyme. I did get a lot done this morning but not everything I wanted to.

I did leave the house though. Only to get a happy meal but I still left and I had to get dressed.

Now all I want to do is go back to bed. Which is not healthy. My psych said tiredness is not a sign of depression but the exhaustion it takes to function while depressed. She said being depressed is hard work.

At least I tried and started off ok. Thats a win.

Im trying really hard but I seem to keep failing. What am I doing wrong?

Re: I can’t cope

I got up and felt ok. It’s been a while as I’ve been waking up a little down. @Jynx

I managed to do some of my job list. I even got to the bottom of my ironing pile for the first time since February! I got dressed and went into town. Only for a happy meal to get the squishmellow.

I had a positive outlook on the day!

But after I sat an had lunch my world started to darken which is why I went to bed. I’ve been trying so hard and I’m not sure what it is that I’m doing wrong.
