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.

oh thats no good @Shaz51

@Captain24 it is hard sometimes to find local supports, especially if you live in a smaller area.

I hope you can keep seeing your dietitian. If she does private bookings too then you should be able to.

I really hope so @Snowie. She has been really great even though I have let her down.

Re: I can’t cope

You haven't let her down @Captain24 You have done your best under some really difficult and hard times. However, I know that feeling. It is hard to shake, hard to not blame ourselves.

Re: I can’t cope

I’ve got no one else to blame for having an ED. @Snowie

I told my CM that the other one said it was my fault with how low I have been. She was disgusted.

Re: I can’t cope

It's not as if you choose to have an ED @Captain24 Sometimes things are out of our control. It starts of small and just spirals downward rapidly. You certainly are not to blame for it.

Re: I can’t cope

I don't think you can assign blame to things like that @Captain24 It's not as if you set out to do this to yourself. I can however understand that blame game. We are very quick to assign it to ourselves.

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @fluffylight.

I’m still really not sure. All the tests show that I have but I don’t think so. Maybe it’s denial or just that I’m not going to change things.
