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

@Captain24 I'm glad you've managed to get some food into you! Hopefully the bath oil works well for you, too. It's lovely that you've found something that might help with the sensory difficulties around moisturiser

It's encouraging to hear your distress has come down from where it was a couple of weeks ago. I hope you continue to notice those gradual improvements, and it's great that you have such a supportive relationship with your psych.

As for comfort shows, I have quite a few favourites! Grey's Anatomy, Charmed, One Tree Hill, The OC, Criminal Minds and Buffy are some of my go-tos. Movies would have to include Harry Potter, 10 Things I Hate About You, Coyote Ugly and pretty much any of the classic animated Disney movies. I have heaps more but I’d be here forever listing them all haha

Do you have any favourite comfort shows or movies that you always find yourself going back to?
