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

@Captain24 I hear you with the fear, I'm in that same place at the moment.

My GP isn't the problem, it's that noone will take me on for long term support. He's done so many referrals and we've tried many medications which have all had varying consequences.

I can only imagine how hard it is for you sweet, especially when you were just starting to turn the corner. I haven't read back much, I feel bad for actually just jumping in the middle of your conversation and I'm sorry that i did.

You've done well to take the bin out, well done.

That sounds like a good plan.

Re: I can’t cope

It’s all good. I can manage 2 conversations! It’s keeping me busy and distracted! @MissGremlin

I still think you need a change. I really mean it when I say fresh eyes. My original GP didn’t take me seriously and I had to get an immediate appointment and got given some random doctor and she was the best thing for me. Totally different perspective and probably saved my life. She is the reason I actually got treatment. However she decided to go home… to Canada! Then sent me to someone else and he was good and seen different things and then he left and now this one has different things as well. I’m not saying he is t doing the right thing but has he just gone stagnant?

I was just saying that depending on how things go with work tomorrow, I will reach out for professional help whether it’s my psych if it works or with EAP at work. I have the support of HR if I need extra sessions than are allocated.

Im going to get off the lounge right now!

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 i just feel like such a bother to everyone at the moment. I don't feel like I belong anywhere.

I can't change GPs, there's so many reasons why but I'm not going to go into them. It's just not my GP that's the issue here.

I'm glad that you'll reach out for professional help sweet, you definitely deserve it.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I'm sorry you feel you don't have someone you can turn to for comfort but, it's lovely that you're able to hold onto those special moments with your mum and recognise how much they mean to you

Yeah see how you, and just know you can reach out to the oncall nurse if you need to

Yes I have my best friend's 30th birthday coming up in about a month, which I'm really looking forward to! Otherwise, Christmas and a few other birthdays too. December is super busy for me, I have a lot of family members birthdays in December, including my own 😅 so there's a bit to look forward to 😊

What about you, anything coming up you're looking forward to this year?
