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 have to head off now @MissGremlin,

But can you let me know that you're feeling safe? 🥰

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I'm so glad you've got the pictures now.

It's getting there. It's giving scarecrow vibes I think. It's almost got 2 legs now.

Re: I can’t cope

@AuntGlow I hope you have a good night.

Can't say I particularly feel safe, but I'm safe for now.

Re: I can’t cope

It sounds so cool @MissGremlin.

I have to finish this colour and then I have one more and this section is done. Out of 40 rows 40 cm wide I have missed 5 dots! I miss way more then that in 15 rows if my usual ones!

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 that's impressive! It's so easy to miss dots especially when there's so many colours. This one has 40 which is the most I've done in a picture.

Re: I can’t cope

I don’t think I have ever done 40 dots. That would be a hard one as I guess you don’t have a rough idea as to where the colours go. At least this canvas is fully coloured! @MissGremlin

This one only has 17 so it’s pretty easy going. It’s bright though. I think it’ll look awesome when it’s finished!

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 it's 40 colours. It's weird not having the background be coloured. It's got numbers, letters and symbols!

I can't wait to see it when you can finish it.

Re: I can’t cope

Hahaha… it would have them all. Mine have symbols as well! As there is too many colours. @MissGremlin

The plain background would make it so much harder! Then with all the colours on top of it and no guide. Sounds harder than the ones I get.

Injust went back and had a look. That’s cute! I looked a couple of times but it hadn’t been approved.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I've never had one with symbols before.

I'm not finding it too hard, the black and white can mess with your eyes after a while though.

It's taking forever for them to be approved sometimes plus there's no way of knowing that there's a picture attached.

I'm nowhere near the half way mark with this one.
