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.

@Captain24 I hope work goes well for you hon.

Sending lots of love 💌💌

@tyme I hope your niece and nephews don't wreck too much havoc on your house.

Going to make my kids clean out their rooms these holidays, they are typical teenage rooms!!

Hope you have a good day 😁

Re: I can’t cope

Lol. Today, I got a basket and collected all the kids' things from my house and took it next door. Next door is a mess too arghhhh. I had to get outta there. My niece wants me to sleep over at her place. I hope she's not still waiting for me. I like my warm bed with my electric blanket. I also wouldn't mind a sleep-in tomorrow... so if I can get out of it, I'm not going over @Captain24

How was your day today? How's your dad?

Re: I can’t cope

Hopefully she is asleep and has forgotten! @tyme. Didn’t you have a sleep in the other day 😜

My house gets messy but usually it’s just shit on the kitchen benches. I couldn’t cope with worse than that. My biggest problem is actually cleaning not so much tidying.

Dad is doing ok as long as he sits on a cushion. Anything hard hurts.

Work was pretty good. I did a few different things as I kept breaking trucks.

I have a massive headache now. I’m not sure if it’s my neck or Covid. I have a Chiro appointment tomorrow so I’ll wait and see what happens.

How was your day other than cleaning up after kids?

Sorry for taking so long to respond @Captain24 .

My day ended up okay. I went for a walk this morning which was nice, but it also reminded me how unfit I am lol.

Oh well, Life is good.

My sister said my niece is okay, and hasn't asked for me again tonight so she didn't stay up waiting. Phew! I get my electric blanket.

I didn't realise the time! Gotta go, but speak tomorrow.

Re: I can’t cope

So I have just tested positive to covid for the 5th time. I have 2 night shifts to go. I’m not feeling the best. I have a pounding headache and my body is aching. But I have 2 nightshifts to go. So not sure what to do. I know I shouldn’t go but I don’t want to use any sick leave.

Re: I can’t cope

Sorry to hear the news @Captain24 I hope you feel better soon.

Take care 💌💌

Re: I can’t cope

I don't feel to bad today just like I have the start of a cold, a massive headache and I’m pretty tired @Snowie

I have to have mums dog for 2 days so I’ve cleaned the house to try and remove Covid! I don’t need mum or dad and the dogs to get it.

Dad has to have a bone scan and a ct scan tomorrow. We get the results next Thursday. I’m guessing if he needs the scans then it’s probably cancer. If it was just an infection I don’t think he would need them. Mum has a specialist appointment Thursday. The appointments Are in two different towns. At least they will be home over night.

I have accomplished a lot today, even though I’m tired. I think it’s to distract from thinking about what’s going on with dad. I do feel good about it though.

Maybe things are starting to pick up. That could change with the psychologist appointment tomorrow. I seem to go really down hill after them. But I do have a CM appointment Thursday so hopefully she can help turn things around.

Re: I can’t cope

Sorry to hear you don't feel great @Captain24 Have you taken some time of work?

It is hard when our parents get to the stage where there seems to be tests and scans every other day. It feels like my mum is at that stage too. I really hope everything comes back clear with your Dad and that your mum's appointment goes ok.

You should be proud for accomplishing things today. Sometimes it is a good distraction.

Hopefully your appointment with your psych goes ok. It is good that you see your CM the next day too. It always helps when we have those supports around us.

Re: I can’t cope

I think I’ve overdone it. I feel terrible.

I went to work last night but had to come home early @Snowie. My boss was sending HR an email because I left early. What a load of shit. So I told him I wouldn’t be in tonight. I wasn’t sick before I went to work. Just the headache.

I am lucky with the supports I’ve got. I hope you can find some added support too @Snowie
