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.

Re: I can’t cope

Have you got a plan for dinner @Captain24? I like to cook when I have nothing to do, and I need a distraction. I found a recipe on Instagram when I was just scrolling and went to the shop and bought the ingredients. Just a thought and something I do! What has worked for you in the past?

Please stay connected on the Forums with the community and we can support you while you are not feeling that great. RiverSeal ❤️

Re: I can’t cope

I don’t really eat much @RiverSeal. Plus I don’t see the point of cooking for one. 😜

What’s your recipe?

Im just sitting with my 2 babies. One is getting really frustrated with the other.

Re: I can’t cope

I cooked a curry with carrot, celery, sweet potato, onion, lentils, and chilli with lots of garlic too. It was a bit pot and I had to freeze most of it, so I have meals for later.

Good that you have your babies for comfort and to care for @Captain24. Are they dogs or cats or maybe something else....?

Re: I can’t cope

Sounds good @RiverSeal. I love chilli and garlic. I use to cook and freeze but then I’d forget to get it out.

I have 2 chihuahuas, one is 4yrs old and the other is 13 weeks.

The 4 yr old is just slowly starting to accept the pup.

Do you have any pets?

Re: I can’t cope

I don't have pets @Captain24 but I have thought about getting a chihuahuas myself in the future maybe. I live in an apartment so I want a pet that would think it's huge and chihuahuas are small!! Do they make good pets when they are the only ones, or do they need the company of anther dog?

Re: I can’t cope

They are awesome little dogs @RiverSeal Very loving and loyal. This is the first time I’ve had 2. I think Pix wishes it was still just her. 😜 They do really well as an only dog.

Re: I can’t cope

I’m lying in bed realising I have made it through another day. In some moments it felt like I only just made it.

I really wish I had understanding parents and could have told my CM that I wasn’t ok and I shouldn’t be alone.

Today was really hard.

I’ve taken prn to try and go to sleep but it’s not working. All that’s going through my head is that I still have another day to go before I can see anyone.

Does this ever get any easier?

Is my life ever going to improve?

Is this what to expect from life?

Re: I can’t cope

Sometimes the right person comes into your life for a while. I knew someone who when I was with her I was never bored. Always happy. I couldn’t have her as anything more than a friend for a short time. I adored everything about her. I have had every problem under the sun. Some my fault. But when I was with her I was always happy. Some activities can bring the same happiness without the time limit. Sometimes suddenly for no reason you will feel alright. Why I don’t know. There are positive experiences out there. I sincerely hope you find yours

Re: I can’t cope

While I still don’t want to be here and am desperate to leave, I have managed to get somethings done today.

I still have a lot to do to make my home a little more presentable. Even if it’s just the living areas.
