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

@Nala2022 it would be nice to not wake up with it. I might actually raise it with my doctor again when i see him next. Really don't think it's just from sleeping on my ears. Between that pain, nightmares and panic attacks, it's no wonder i don't get much sleep.

Having a dog is honestly the best thing, the company, the laughs, the snuggles, it's all just amazing.

Thankyou sweet, she really was such a beautiful girl who saved my life ❤️.

I better get ready for the day, it's been lovely to chat to you as always. Hope you have a good rest of your day, be gentle with your wonderful self ❤️.

Re: I can’t cope

I think that's a good idea @MissGremlin. It sounds like it's been happening for quite a while, so hopefully your doctor can help look into it further and find something that brings you a bit of relief

I agree, dogs really are the best for all the love, laughs and cuddles

Laylah sounds like such a special girl. I'm so glad you got to share that beautiful bond with her, even though three years was far too short

It's always lovely chatting with you too 😊

Thank you, lovely. I hope your tattoo appointment goes really well today.

Take care of yourself, and talk soon❤️

@Nala2022 it's been happening for a very long time to varying degrees. Can't even just sleep on my back to solve the problem 😂.

3 years was definitely too short but I'll always treasure the bond we had and the beautiful memories of her. She was also a character. Doing silly things like this 😂.

Thankyou sweet ❤️. I managed to get ready, now I just need to wait the hour until my appointment.

You poor thing ☹️ If only it was that simple, hey!

I'm glad you have those special memories of Laylah that you can look back on and that she can still bring a smile to your face. Haha, what a cutie! I love when dogs do silly things like that

Not long to wait now until your appointment. I hope it goes really well and feels like a special moment for you @MissGremlin ❤️

I love tattoos too. I actually spontaneously got my nose pierced on Monday 😂 but I'm definitely more of a tattoo person. I have a few already and want to get some more

Re: I can’t cope

@Nala2022 I definitely treasure the special and funny memories of her. She was really one of a kind ❤️.

Thankyou sweet, I'm hoping it all goes well. I love getting tattoos ☺️.

Oohhh a nose piercing, i only have my ears pierced. If money wasn't an issue I'm sure I'd have alot more tattoos 😂. I really want to get a stitch one after this so I'll see if I can save up for it.

Re: I can’t cope

That’s really beautiful @MissGremlin 💛

Me too, tattoos are definitely addictive haha

Same here, just my ears and now my nose too! If money wasn’t an issue, I’d probably have a lot more as well 😅

Ohhh a Stitch tattoo? As in Lilo & Stitch? I love that! Or is it something completely different?

In response to: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

@Nala2022 they are definitely addictive!

Yes as in Lilo and Stitch, there's a pic i found ages ago that I'd love to have done. I'd also love to get an Eeyore one.

I'm hoping to one day have my SH scars turned into something to cover them up a bit. It's been like 5 years since I've done anything in the one spot but it's still not healed enough to tattoo over.

In response to: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

I love Eeyore too! I hope you get to have both of those tattoos one day😊

I think it’s really meaningful that you’d like to turn your scars into something that represents your journey. I hope when the time is right, you’re able to do that and create something that feels positive and empowering for you @MissGremlin ❤️

In response to: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

@Nala2022 they are both 2 characters that I love, so hopefully one day.

It would be nice to cover them up a bit, it's taken me so long to be comfortable with them being visible to anyone and I still have days where I hide them. But I try to look at it as them telling a story of survival rather than failure.

In response to: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

I really hope you get to have them one day too @MissGremlin 😊

I think the way you’re looking at your scars, as a story of survival rather than failure, is such a powerful and compassionate way to see them 💛
