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 glad to hear you got some sleep.

I haven't moved from my safe place either.

Sometimes we have to do what is best for us. Here with you 💜

Re: I can’t cope

Hi @Captain24

Sometimes laying on the couch or bed is the best place to be for us and I tend to gravitate to the couch myself. Naps are a good way to pass the time if you are not feeling 100% but having a plan when you wake up may help. When I am just chilling on the couch I like to listen to music to a playlist or create my own. And recently I have been able to start watching TV series but that is new for me because I used to get triggered by it before. Facebook and Instagram are my big-time passing pastimes too but some people don't use them or get triggered by them. Depends on what or who you follow maybe!

Just some of my thoughts to give you something to think about! 🙂

Take care

Re: I can’t cope

I’ve moved from my bed to my lounge looking at a blank tv screen. I have a tracksuit on, my oodie and the heater on. I’m still so cold. It’s not even cold here. Is that my severely depressed state that I can’t warm up?

Re: I can’t cope

Would you consider calling emergency services tonight @Captain24 ?

Things just don't seem to be improving?

I'm sorry you had to cancel mum's.

Re: I can’t cope

I just reached out for help @tyme. It helped a little. It’s eased the urge to hurt myself again.

Good on your for reaching out @Captain24 .

Please know you can phone again if you feel those urges again.

You do deserve it. I was only posting this on another thread:

Re: I can’t cope

Thank you. @tyme I’ll keep trying to practice it.

Im so sorry. The urges have come back so I’m going to go to bed. Maybe one day things will improve.

I’ve got to try and get myself to work tomorrow.

Good night. And thanks for caring.

Re: I can’t cope

I’ve managed to get up for work. Late though. No time for a shower, so I still haven’t managed to have one. I don’t want to go. It’s a struggle for me to leave the house. I’m sitting in the car willing myself to drive.
