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

It really can be hard when you don't have the energy or motivation, and things can start to pile up so quickly. I'm really glad Captain has been there to support you. It sounds like breaking things down and focusing on one task at a time has made such a difference for you 😊💛

Haha, I try not to use the heater too much either. I always regret it when the electricity bill comes! 😂 I definitely know the feeling @MissGremlin

@Nala2022 it made all the difference.

Gotta watch those electricity bills these days, they can really bite 😂.

Re: I can’t cope

@Nala2022 it feels like everything just came crashing down, my mood dropped in an instant but I don't know why. I thought i was doing ok, things felt lighter but now it's back to the heaviness and the dark thoughts that I'm stuck with everyday 😞.

I feel like such a failure cos I can't just be happy. I'm exhausted and my head has started pounding, my heart was doing ok for the past 12 hours but now it's back to skipping a beat constantly. I'm safe, laying on my lounge with Casper.

I'm really glad it did @MissGremlin

Oh, definitely! 😂

I hope you enjoy the rest of your day 😊

Re: I can’t cope

I'm so sorry to hear that, @MissGremlin ☹️

That sounds incredibly hard, especially when things had started to feel a little lighter. Sometimes those shifts in mood can happen so suddenly, and I can understand how discouraging that must feel

You're not a failure because you're having a difficult moment. I'm really glad you let us know you're safe and that you've got Casper there with you 💛

Just keep taking things one moment at a time, and if things start to feel too overwhelming or you no longer feel safe, please reach out to a support service or someone you trust so you don't have to carry this on your own

Re: I can’t cope

@Nala2022 it's really discouraging and I don't like that it happens so suddenly without warning.

I'm trying to allow myself to just rest for a bit but it's hard with my heart pounding like it is when I can hear it in my head, I feel like I'm going to burst into tears (I'm safe).

Anyway thankyou for the chat today sweet, i hope you have a good rest of your day ❤️.

Re: I can’t cope

I'm sorry you're having to sit with that feeling @MissGremlin. I'm glad you're giving yourself permission to rest for a little while, even though I know it's not easy when your body feels so unsettled.

Thank you for chatting with me today too. I hope you're able to have a gentle rest of your day with Casper by your side. Please keep leaning on the supports around you if things feel heavier, and take care of yourself 💛

Re: I can’t cope

You should be so proud of yourself. You deserve it and have done very well! @MissGremlin Anytime you need help sorting things out and can say in here just ask. I’m a lateral thinker and can usually think clearly!

Im just gotten home. I accidentally forgot for the union meeting 😜. I just wanted to go. We say for the last half an hour doing literally nothing!!!

Re: I can’t cope

Thankyou @Captain24 sweet, i honestly couldn't have done it without you.

Haha oops. Guess there's not much you can do about it now 😂.

Re: I can’t cope

I’m just so so tired. I’m exhausted. I have sat in a room full of people since 7:15 and had to talk until 3:15. Even when I went to the toilet someone was in there. I never got 5 minutes to myself. I still have to make my wraps for work and cook dinner tonight. My washing is dry and I was going to iron it but I just can’t do it. If I didn’t have my psych appointment I’d go to sleep. @MissGremlin

That’s ok… what are friends for.
