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

Yeah it was a pretty quite Christmas @Paperdaisy. I didn’t really have a break because of my roster. It just fell on my days off.

Was it you that asked me a while back what I did because I was on night shift?

No the pit shuts down for 48hrs over Christmas @Paperdaisy.

Sorry I probably didn’t make any sense. Lately nothing makes sense. I’ve got way to much stress going on.

Re: I can’t cope

I'm sorry to hear that @Captain24 stress is not good for anyone. I hope things work out for you soon. You're doing really well despite the stress. Seems you are managing things. You should be really proud 💝

Re: I can’t cope

Hey @Captain24

I did manage to get some sleep but have still woken up a bit tired, I think I am just a bit run down!

Glad that you're feeling good this morning, even though you woke up early. How was your sleep?

Re: I can’t cope

Can you have an early night tonight? @amber22. Being run down for me is an early warning sign! I’ve been taking notice of what may be a sign.

I slept pretty well but I’ve woken up wired! My body is exhausted but my brain is on go go go.

Im trying to teach myself how to whipper snipper but I’m useless at it! Plus my creepy neighbour is on night shift so he is asleep and I was trying to wake him up. He deserves it.

Re: I can’t cope

I think I will have an early night tonight! I am so glad that you have been taking note on what an early warning sign is for you, that Peer Group Chat was so helpful for me, I hope that it helped you too. I hadn't properly thought about my early warning signs until that topic.

So glad that you had a good nights sleep. Good on you for being considerate about your neighbour, and for doing the whipper snippering!! Best not the wake the creepy neighbour haha!
