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.

She was really interesting. @hanami. I think the presentation would have been go to listen too.

I think there should be more around. I think it would be so helpful to a lot of us to see one

Maybe we will in the future! @Captain24 It's a good idea!

Oh no re Pix @Captain24 ! It doesn't sound good.

I hope she will be okay.

As for your psych appointments, well done on changing the script to be about you now, and not your eating nor your dad. It's about working with you and what your emotional state rather than your symptoms I guess.

Hopefully you will become less 'stuck' that way.

I can’t take all the credit @tyme. It was suggested by the suicidologist! But it’s up to me to do it and I will. I’m sick of going over the same 2 things. Hopefully it will unstick me!

Im really hoping for some good news tomorrow. Pix deserves it. Obviously something will need to be done to help her. But just hoping it’s simple.

@Captain24 Just sliding in to say that I relate to your need to have control. I get so irritated when I don’t have control. And I especially feel it in regards to my environment. Don’t think my mum understands…. Neither does my daughter.

I don’t think a lot of people understand @Bow. I’m sorry you struggle with it too. Your environment would be so hard. I think when I don’t have control I control other things.

Hey @tyme

I was wondering how it went taking the kids to see your old neighbour?

No pressure to answer.. just when you are free.

Re: I can’t cope

Hey @Captain24 !

I'm so glad I took the kids. He was so so so frail. The kids sang him some songs and we had morning tea with him. He showed us his garden and his tomato plants. I don't think he has more than a year or so. He deteriorated so much since I last saw him. He used to do my lawns and my garden when he was living near me.

It was good for the kids to see that life is as a vapour. We may be here one day and gone the next.

The kids were pretty good.

At least it made him happy. He's a few months off 90 years old.

Re: I can’t cope

It’s so hard to see them like that @tyme.

Im so glad that he enjoyed seeing the kids. Especially since you probably talk about them. I think it’s also great for kids to see that older people are around and can be good people too.

My nans husband is 92. But he is always on the go. He has done so much to the house and garden since Nan passed. We think he keeps busy to work through losing nan.

Also.. I’ll post a photo tomorrow of my ‘ice cream truck’! I finally finished it.

Re: I can’t cope

It's not easy @Captain24

Btw, i love the ice cream truck. Isn't Lego addictive????
