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

Awww @Captain24 . I'm sorry to hear it is hard today.

When I feel like I want to stay in bed all day, I think of things that get me out. Here are a few things I can think of:

- responsibility

- work

- appointments

- children

Can you think of things that help you get out of bed? e.g. Pixie?

Ive got nothing on at the moment @tyme. Pixie loves sleeping in the bed with me. She just gets me up to take her to the toilet.

One bonus is that I’ve recognised it. I hope that means I can turn it around.

I’ve given myself permission to write today off but I need to try and change it tomorrow. I just have to hope I can.

Awww @Captain24 .

Giving yourself permission is so important. Many times, we may punish ourselves for something, but if we only allowed ourselves and gave ourselves permission, we would be less harsh on ourselves.

Give yourself permission to life. You deserve it.

My husband has been full of "ifs" today

Today is gone now and tomorrow is calling xx

I can see where I’m headed @tyme @Shaz51. So instead of beating myself up I’m trying to allow it. With hopefully a positive outlook I can come out of it quicker and easier.

Good on you @Captain24 !

Positive self-talk can go a long way. I know it works for me... I just need to keep it up.

Thanks @Shaz51.

Im trying to look at it in a better way. @tyme. I don’t want the roller coaster that the last 3 weeks have been to happen again. It really scared me. I don’t think I could cope again.

Re: I can’t cope

Write yourself some sticky notes to remind you of self-talk @Captain24 🙂

That might help.

Re: I can’t cope

I’m going back to bed as I think it’s my best option right now @tyme. I will try and start a new day tomorrow. Hopefully my mindset will work. I can only try. I feel like I need someone to hold me accountable to get things done. I just don’t know where to turn for that.
