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.
With everything going on in my life, work is the only thing that gives me structure @Kyle1. I don’t know that I would have made it through last night if I didn’t have work today.

I’m not ok @Tallihoe and I don’t want to continue at all. But I have people counting on me tomorrow which makes it worse but I can’t let them down either

No @Snowie I think today is even worse. I can’t stop the thoughts. It’s taking all my strength to not do anything.
Im sorry today is so bad for you. I do hope it lets up soon for you
