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 sorry to hear you're still feeling so panicked today @MissGremlin.

I'm glad your friend was able to go shopping with you yesterday, and it sounds like spending some time doing diamond art and chatting with Captain gave you a little bit of connection too

I hope making yourself a cuppa and feeding Casper helps bring a small moment of comfort this morning 😊

I'm doing well today, thank you for asking. Keeping warm and also enjoying a cuppa.

Be gentle with yourself today 💛

Re: I can’t cope

@Nala2022 things have settled a little after doing those things.

It was really nice going out with my friend yesterday and having cuddles with her bubs. I love the connection me and captain have here, she's a beautiful person and it's awesome that we both enjoy diamond art so we can sit and do it together while we connect.

Glad to hear you're doing well and enjoying a cuppa aswell ☺️.

I will do my best to be gentle with myself today, I know it's going to be a hard day so plan to take it slowly, one moment at a time.

It sounds like yesterday had some really lovely moments of connection, both with your friend and with Captain. Those moments can be so valuable, especially on the harder days

I think taking today slowly and one moment at a time sounds like a really gentle plan ☺️💛

@Nala2022 it had some really lovely moments which were very much needed with how things were with my heart and head pounding. I'm glad my heart has settled today, it's just the pounding head that's still there but that's more from a lack of sleep now. My doctor will have the results back from my blood test but I know he'll only ring if there's anything concerning.

Do you have any plans for your day?

Re: I can’t cope

I'm glad to hear your heart has settled today @MissGremlin. I hope the headache starts to ease too. Hopefully no news from your doctor is a reassuring sign, but it's good they're keeping an eye on your blood test results

I don't have too much planned today. I need to pop into Woolies a little later because I forgot something for dinner tonight 😅 then I think I'll have a quiet evening and watch a movie

@Nala2022 haha I laugh cos I forgot like 4 things yesterday when I went to the shops 😂. Hoping your shopping trip goes smoothly. A quiet evening watching a movie sounds perfect ☺️.

Re: I can’t cope

No the shower didn’t help unfortunately, I still feel the same @MissGremlin

Im really really thirsty though. I’ve had a can of monster, a can of redbull, a small bottle of coke, 2 poppers and soda water. I still can’t quench my thirst. I’m about to have breakfast.

Sorry about feeling panicked and the pounding headache.

I need slow and gentle, I need to be nicer to myself. I’ve been doing diamond art since I got up until I fed the dogs. We are in this together. I will have to have a sleep at some stage though. There is no way I can get through the day without it. I will just get worse mentally and everything will come crashing down fast. It sucks though after having a reasonable day yesterday.

I’ve got 2 dogs climbing all over me and licking me while I’m trying to write this! 😂

One just farted and it stinks! I think it was Jett, his are the worst! Typical male

Haha, that makes me feel a bit better! 😂

It's always the one or two things you actually need that somehow are forgotten.

Thank you!

I hope you're able to have a gentle day today 😊

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I'm sorry the shower didn't help sweet but it's still good that you had one.

I have days like that when it doesn't matter how much I drink, it just doesn't quench the thirst. Having some breakfast is a good idea though.

We are definitely in this together and having a sleep to help get through the day is perfectly ok. Just remember that just cos today is feeling crappy it doesn't ease the progress you've made ❤️.

Haha cheeky puppies, I'll often be typing a message while Casper is standing on me or giving me slobbery kisses 😂.

Oh not the stinky farts 😂.
