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.

Hello @Captain24 sweet, thought I'd share something that made me smile today. My neighbour brought over this cute little guy that she made for me ☺️.

I think the fact you are trying to focus and listen in to what your body needs is such a wonderful way to nurture yourself through more challenging moments. 💛 @MissGremlin

I know. I am so glad you're connecting here and finding it so helpful. We all appreciate your presence so much. 🥹

Safe and alive, ah. 😍 @Captain24 It really is weird when you first start to feel more grounded and safe in your body, it's like 'huh!? Isn't this the moment I panic and spiral into oblivion?!" 😂 But I think that is the beauty of being able to acknowledge and sit with all parts of yourself - it means we can see the triggered part, but it doesn't take over as much because we have more access to the grounded parts! @MissGremlin, I can see you are working on this with your 'moment to breathe' each day - like Cap said, every moment you do this counts and it will continue to grow your connection to inner safety. 🥰

I am so, so happy for you. Knowing what it feels like in your body and that you know how to access this space again is HUUUGE. This is neuroplasticity doing its best work 💅 😉 @Captain24

Re: I can’t cope

@AuntGlow thankyou for the kind words sweet ❤️.

I'm trying so hard to find those little moments and it wouldn't have happened without the inspiration I've had from @Captain24. It's helped to see the change in her, the hard work she's been putting in to change how things are. I just hope it's not too late for me, I worry that I won't be able to change things and that I'll be stuck like this. I'm tired of everyday being such a struggle so I'm hoping that these little moments will be able to become bigger moments and then things might get better (I'm safe).

Re: I can’t cope

work is a massive trigger. Last night I came home and couldn’t speak. I tried singing to songs on the radio at work but it was just so hard. All I feel is pressure that I’m not good enough. I’m not, they tell me so.

Instead of going grocery shopping this morning I spent time on my bed with my dogs and was nearly late to my chiropractor appointment. I only just realised the time in time. I went and went and got ready made meals for work. I can home and fed the dogs and really don’t want to go shopping so I ordered it online. It was quicker and easier.

I’ve paid the accommodation money that I owed mum and I’ve paid my green slip for my car rego, just to get the pink slip done and pay the rego.

I’ve just sat and done a little bit of diamond art but it hasn’t really helped. I sat in the sun for a bit and that did. I now have to get myself some lunch and drop the dogs in. I’m really not feeling it as it means I’m going to work. At least I only have tonight and tomorrow night and it’s done for 5 days. Those days can’t come soon enough.

Im not real sure how I’m feeling. Maybe dysregulated? I don’t know.

Yeah.. I do feel like I will spiral and lose it all but I need to try. It is expected but it was also unexpected to find the feeling so who knows. All I can do is keep trying. Maybe I’ll be somewhere better at work tonight and that’ll change things up at work.

Sorry I haven’t been very chatty @MissGremlin

Did you see the sun today?

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 it's ok sweet. I haven't been on here, I'm not ok today (I'm safe).

No i didn't, I had to go to the shops with mum and that's left me both exhausted and extremely emotional.

Re: I can’t cope

I’m sorry you aren’t ok today @MissGremlin It must be hard to help your mum and you are a god person for doing so.

Can you look at your little duck and think that someone cared enough for you to make something personal for you? Just something little and 10 seconds of appreciation
