I can’t cope

Captain24Senior Contributor16 June 2022, 9:48 pm AEST

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 💖🫂. Depression can really vicious. I think it’s important to look after yourself and eat well. I have blood tests that need to be done too, I just haven’t had the opportunity, but really should get them done. It’s never fun doing them.

Kangaroos are adorable, I hope the 11 alive ones you saw have happy long lives

Re: I can’t cope

It’s not the test I’m worried about @creative_writer. It’s the results. Im scared if they come out good then I’m not trying hard enough but if they are bad my dietitian is going to be disappointed in me.

You can tell you live in the city. Kangaroos are a pest. The 12th one came off second best to my bullbar. I have to check under my car and see if the bastard did any damage when I drove over him.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24, sorry, I’m a bit behind. Are you saying that you feel guilty if you eat well?

I would imagine kangaroo wouldn’t be so good for the car. There was a dead one when I was on a road trip with my family, my dad checked the car just in case it did something. You see them all the time in rural Australia

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I’m the same with my bloods. I’m well over due to get mine done and am refusing to make an appointment with my gp. I had my dietitian yesterday asking me to get them checked, more so now cause I’ve started back on other ED behaviours that can have serious consequences. But I said no. My support worker asks me everyday too. Sigh.

Re: I can’t cope

So glad to hear from you @Captain24

Sorry it has been so hard for you, I'm glad you had Pixie.

Well done for getting through your work shifts.

Kangaroo's are bad where we live too. Have hit quite a few. They do a lot of damage to the car.

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Snowie. It’s still really hard. I’ve spent all afternoon in bed. I’m not really sure if this is the place for me yet. I don’t feel like I belong anywhere.

All I can say is lucky for the bull bar. It hit dead centre so if I didn’t have the bar I wouldn’t have gotten home. It has saved me three times now. One did do minor damage, two panels and bent the bar but it was huge!

Hey @Bow. I have to go to the hospital for my dietitian and CM appt on Monday so I will get them done then. Hopefully. Im sorry you are doing more things. I have started to take something else. I don’t know whether to be honest about it or not.

Re: I can’t cope

Hugs @Captain24 . I'm here if you need a chat. It sounds like you are going through a fair bit. I haven't caught up with everything yet though. Will get to it after GS.

Re: I can’t cope

What's great about this place is that it is always here when you feel you need it @Captain24

No pressure at all

Bull Bars are good. They have saved my car!

I hope your appt.s on Monday go well

Re: I can’t cope

As hard as it is @Captain24 always be honest- it’s for the best. I fessed up to my dietitian yesterday about everything. It’s hard, but nothing is new to her and she is always so understanding and compassionate.

Re: I can’t cope

I do feel I need to be here @Snowie but at the same time I’m not sure I belong. I have isolated myself so much that I don’t know where I fit in.

I guess I really have to @Bow. It’ll be really hard because both of them will be there. I am going to cut my appt short though as I have a psych app straight after.

How have you been @tyme
