Something’s not right

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.

Hi @Captain24 ,

We have made the change and hopefully it will be able to protect others who might also find the content triggering. Thank you for bring this to our attention and sharing your feelings with us.

Re: I can’t cope

I’m scared. I’ve just emailed my CM saying that I think I need help. I’m shaking and my heart is racing.

Re: I can’t cope

That's a huge step @Captain24 I'm so proud of you, that wouldn't have been easy. How long till you might hear back? Anything that might help in the meantime?

I’m not sure when I’ll hear back from her. @Jynx. It will most likely be today though. I was doing diamond art but my hands are shaking to much so now I’m trying Lego.

I feel sick

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 Hopefully you do hear back all too soon. Having something to focus on sounds like a good idea - which lego set are you working on?

Sorry to hear that it affected you as well @Bow, sending some hugs your way.

Re: I can’t cope

I don’t usually get triggered with that overly easily. But I was just too close to home. @Bow I hope you are ok.

I’ve started the Home Alone house @Jynx. I’m taking my time with it. It’s pretty cool. You can push the sled down the stairs. It actually made me laugh.

Bahaha that's amazing @Captain24. Sounds very intricate, hopefully you'll get a lot out of the build!

Be sure to be gentle with yourself hun, waiting after taking such a scary step can be rough, but I'm here beside you 💜

Re: I can’t cope

I’m so scared @Jynx. Did I do the right thing?

She finishes in an hour hopefully I hear from her. I can’t call in sick tomorrow. I already did today and I have to Thursday night as well.

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24 I reckon so, I mean hopefully. Don't see how asking for help and being honest with where you're at can be a bad thing hun - a difficult thing for sure, but not bad.

Taking time off is definitely wise too! Sounds like you're prioritising your needs hun. One less thing to add to your stress is a good idea.
