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.
Aaarrrggghhh…. I’m not ok. I am safe. But I have really unsafe urges. At least I can’t act on them

Re: I can’t cope
I really don’t know @tyme. I don’t really understand.
I’m trying to write an email to my nurse but don’t even know where to start.

Re: I can’t cope
Maybe give yourself some space away and come back to it? Do you think that will help? @Captain24 I can't say I've ever written a letter to a nurse, but that's what I do for assignments. I get a mental block so I need time away to do some physical activity and then I come back to it with fresh eyes.
What are you up to tonight anyway?

We email all the time @tyme. It works better when I’m working. She has been away and knows I am so maybe I’ll just wait and see if she emails me tomorrow.
I’m laying on the lounge upstairs away from my parents watching the end of Australian idol. I spent part of the afternoon at the beach, so that was great!
What have you been upto?

@Captain24, take your time with the email. Sometimes minds can be a little scattered in the heat of the moment, let the words come naturally. Australian idol sounds lovely, haven't seen much of it to be honest but some people do have really powerful and beautiful voices. Another day at the beach sounds so peaceful. I wish I could go to a quiet non-crowded beach and study.
