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

I’m far from ok, I’m in a really bad way. So I’ve spent 80% of today in bed. Then I mowed half the backyard and feel physically sick. Can my MH cause me to feel sick? Or do I just deserve it for being so worthless and spending the day in bed?

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 mind-body connection says yes, your MH can 100% have a physical component! You definitely don't deserve to feel sick...sometimes the body just manifests our emotions in a nasty way. And sometimes, spending 80% of the day in bed is gonna happen. But you did still make some headway on tasks by getting the lawn mown. Maybe now for tonight, you jus need to be gentle with yourself 💜

Re: I can’t cope

Sorry @Jynx I’m in a really bad way. I don’t want to leave my bed but I have to. My bed is the only place I’m safe.

Thank you for letting me know there is a link. At least I don’t have to worry about that too

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 nothing to be sorry for. Sometimes, it's all just really, really hard, hey. I hope you get to return to bed and hide away - it's totally okay to do so if it helps you to feel safe. Take deep breaths, take it slow, be gentle w yourself. I hope you get some rest really soon x

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Jynx. I’m heading back to bed now. Hopefully I can make some sort of achievement tomorrow. If not then it’s another day in bed.

Hope you have a good night
