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

I’m having way to many unhelpful thoughts creeping into my head @tyme. It’s really distressing. At least I cant be bothered to act on them.

Im thinking I should head off to bed.

Thank you

Re: I can’t cope

I think it's harder because of where you are located @Captain24 . I hope you do find a suitable psychologist. But at this point, it sounds like meds play a big part. I've never seen you so low.

However, with the meds, you probably also have to consider your physical health more... maybe suggesting the sweetened condensed milk wasn't such a good idea on my part!!!

Have you started the Pixie diamond art? I've been doing my niece's one today because my sister wants it finished.

Re: I can’t cope

I’ve never been so low @tyme and tonight is really not good.

I haven’t received Pixies diamond art yet. I should get it this week. I still have the one I’m doing to finish.

I hope you are enjoying your nieces one.

Oh @Captain24 . I'm sorry things are not getting better. It sounds like this dip is lasting a typical length of time for bipolar? What do you think?

Re: I can’t cope

I hate it @tyme. I hate that I sound like a broken record. I hate I’m the one that is continually struggling. I hate how self centred i have become. I need to stop

posting. Everyone me is probably sick of me.

Im not sure if it’s typical or not. I’ll have to ask my CM if she can shed some light.

Re: I can’t cope

Believe it or not, I'm not sick of you. If anything, I'm mentally tracking your moods. @Captain24 It is sort of making more sense to me now.

Definitely worth speaking to you CM about it. That is, the lengthy depressive episode.

I think it is actually helpful to recognise this, so that we can then also recognise the other extreme if it were to happen.

I actually am thinking this whole thing is a blessing in disguise 🙂

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks for understanding @tyme. I’m glad you think this is a blessing. Lol. Your last few posts are helping me to understand bipolar more.

I hope you will continue to support through this. I usually end up pushing people away.
