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.

Sorry to hear that @Captain24

Have you got any plans for this afternoon?

I'm ok thanks. Just taking each day as it comes.

Not really @Snowie. I’ve got things that need to be done but I just can’t. I can’t even look 2 minutes in front.

I see your holiday was good. I’m glad it went well.

Hey @Captain24,

It sounds like you are having a really tough time right now and I'm here and the Forums community is here to support you. What can you do right now that might help you get through this? Maybe something that you have done in the past can work for you today.

Sitting with you today!

Re: I can’t cope

It's ok not to do things @Captain24 Just surviving is enough sometimes and the is nothing wrong with that. Sometimes we just need to stop and give ourselves a break.

Are you watching anything on the tv? I am watching the tennis at the moment.

My holiday was nice thanks, but was glad to get home back to my own bed!

Re: I can’t cope

I’m actually watching the episodes of home and away that I’ve missed @Snowie. It’s making me cry which I guess is a good thing. It’s a release. Better than my other release from earlier.

Im not a fan of tennis watching or playing.

There is nothing like your own bed.

@RiverSeal there doesn’t feel like there is anything I can do. All I can do is take it moment by moment. I can’t look any further than that.

Re: I can’t cope

Crying can be a good release @Captain24 Sometimes I just let it all out when I'm in the shower. I find that it does help.

Re: I can’t cope

I have no plans @RiverSeal only making through the day. Nothing for dinner as I had sandwich for lunch.

In response to: Re: I can’t cope

Re: I can’t cope

This is part of my problem @RiverSeal. I’ve lost focus on it. I can’t maintain focus on anything for very long today. Hence the inability to distract myself. Everything that I’m trying isn’t working. I guess I just need to be gentle and just focus on the now.

Im suppose to be on nightshift that night but I think it’s the shift I have to call in sick for so I should be there.
