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.

I never learnt as a child and only started at about 28. @Former-Member. I ended up doing exams, eistedfods and concerts. I loved it. I was also a teacher of the younger kids

That is so cool! I love adults learning new things and things that are just for fun. We rarely see it 😔. I love learning new skills and hobbies that give me joy.

Re: I can’t cope

Yeah it was all before my MI got really bad. @Former-Member I couldn’t do it now. I don’t have the confidence to.

Ive always had depression and been on anti-depressants on and off. My GP was really understanding. He would just prescribe them for a couple of months and then would say everyone feels like this at times. I’ve always had a social anxiety.

It wasn’t until May this year that I completely lost it and started to suffer really badly. Also my social phobia is extremely out of control.

Do you have any hobbies

Re: I can’t cope

I had some dinner and ate it slowly trying to calm down but it didn’t work! Lol. I’m still buzzing. But my heart rate is slowing and that’s what I really needed. My chest doesn’t hurt now!

Yeah that MI stiff can create a lot of barriers 😡. Hope you get to enjoy dancing just for yourself 💓

Thank goodness your rate has lowered!! I just ate dinner too. How was your lasagne?

Re: I can’t cope

Yeah this MI has made a complete mess of my life. @Former-Member.

My lasagne was great. Now I have enough for lunches for work. How was your dinner?

My chest is sore but now that my rate has slowed down I no longer have actual chest pain.

I’m not bouncing as much as I was but still really energised but I think it’s slowing down. I’m hoping I calm down enough so I can’t get some sleep. I have to get up early in the morning for work.

Re: I can’t cope

Hi @tyme.

I’ve had a fantastic day. Being able to laugh at absolutely nothing has been awesome and having confidence that I don’t normally have.

How was your day?

Re: I can’t cope

I had a 'normal' day. Nothing special @Captain24 .

I like my days and all the challenges it brings. I really can't complain.

I'm glad you had a day you could laugh. I'm just thinking, does Pix have little shoes?

Re: I can’t cope

Yes, hopefully with your full belly you can slow down a bit 🙏 @Captain24

Did you get in some Home and Away?
