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.

Looks like we posted at the same time. But if you feel the need to step away, I totally respect that too.

Nah. The Mars Bar was my actual Pop on the other side. @tyme

How did your presentation go?

Only if you have time. I doesn’t matter if you don’t. I’m not really worth it.

Oh! Your Pop on the other side 🙂 I'll never forget him and Mars bars.

I'm not sure if you've shared this already, but was it just a family get together for his bday today? How is he?

Also, the preso was okay. There was so much I wanted to put into it but so little time. I had about 2 hours... then I think I've got more for the next 4 weeks, but these are just 1 hour short ones @Captain24

Did you get much done this arvo?

Re: I can’t cope

It was just me mum and dad and we just popped in @tyme. He’s either 94 or 95 I think.

Im glad it was ok. At least you have more chances to cover everything you want to cover. What time did you get to bed?

I haven't done anything this afternoon.

I did do stuff this morning but didn’t finish anything. The bed linen is changed, the kitchen and ensuite are clean but I didn’t do the floors, so not finished. I did some ironing but I haven’t finished my work clothes, another thing not finished. I did 2 loads of washing but they didn’t dry, so not finished. I didn’t bath the dogs because I had to go see him. So today has been a big failure. So obviously I’m not recovery focused enough.

Re: I can’t cope

So it's a big 'failure' because you haven't done everything @Captain24 ? A reframe can be, "I haven't done what I wanted to - yet". I recognise it's hard, but sometimes, it's these moments that we need a bit of support to push through. It's part of re-working our brains.

YOU are the one in control of reshaping it to be what it needs to be. And when you feel you can't, you've got accountability buddies to give you a kick! (jks)

Anyway, you've still got time... there's 7 hours before the end of the day.

I've just been told that I'm hopping off around 7:30pm tonight. So hopefully, we can get some planning done with you before I hop off.

When's your next work block?

In response to: Re: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

I’m sorry about the reframe. @tyme.

It’s too cold now to bath the dogs so that’s going to have to wait until tomorrow. So that’s one thing off today’s list that just can’t be done.

I go back to work on Monday for two days and two nights then I’m off work for 4 weeks.

How do I stop people tagging me in things I don’t want to be tagged in?

In response to: Re: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

Just looked at my list and there is so much more that I didn’t do.

In response to: Re: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

With the tags, some people really don't know, and they probably tag you because they want to be inclusive. Because there are some members who make complaints that people don't tag and include them, then there are others who make a complaint about being tagged.

I'm sorry if it feels triggering when you are tagged. Feel free to ask them not to tag you. Then again, you may need to tag the person to let them know you don't want to be tagged or they won't get the message!

I don't have an answer for this one. Sorry.

As for your list, can you cancel some things off your list? @Captain24

In response to: Re: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

I guess it’s a no win situation. @tyme

My list has just gotten way too much. I can’t do it. I’ve put way too much pressure on myself. I ‘feel’ like I’m just useless. But I guess a reframe would be ‘it’s been a hard afternoon I can do it all tomorrow’

Did you get your things done?
