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

It’s only 3 parts. @amber22 chuck the rubbish, pack the dishwasher, clean the benches. It so doesn’t sound like much but it’s way too overwhelming.

I also have to head into town and get stuff for lunch for the next few days at work. Plus iron my work clothes. It’s all too much.

Just the thought makes me feel like I’m heading for a complete breakdown.

Re: I can’t cope

So I got myself off the lounge to have a shower. I have tried diamond art. I have tried Lego. I have tried music. I have tried Mario Kart.

Nothing is working. Nothing can pick me up. What is wrong with me.

I just give up. I’m just done with it all.

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Snowie. I’m just done. I’ve tried my tool box it hasn’t worked. Im just too far gone to come back from.

Sorry. You have enough of your own stuff going on. You don’t need my shit too.

Re: I can’t cope

Our narratives can become our truths @Captain24 - I don't think that anyone is ever 'too far gone', yourself included.

It sucks when it feels like our tools and strategies aren't working, but even if it doesn't feel like they're helping, they can still work on our nervous systems. Just takes some time, sometimes. And if you're feeling frustrated by it, it could also help to take a step back and try to refocus somewhere else.

Happy to chat with you as always hun, here for you 💜

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Snowie. If I’m too much step away!

I don’t know. Do you know I went to Spain to see the Pope?

Re: I can’t cope

Wow that would have been a fun experience @Captain24

It would have been a magical place to visit. That would have been a once in a lifetime opportunity.

I would love to go to Europe one day.

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Jynx. But I just don’t see anyway back from this. I don’t think it’s possible. I will never be the same again. I am so scared of where I am. I’ve never felt this before. I don’t have the strength to even try. I feel like I’ve lost myself and I’ve lost my mind.

If I didn’t have commitments for the next couple of weeks. I’d either end it all my own way or just tell my team to do whatever they need to.

Re: I can’t cope

It was pretty amazing @Snowie. Except for the night in an airfield in a massive storm sleeping on the ground! I did see the Pope in the popemobile though!

I just couldn’t comprehend how old everything is.

Then we went to Ireland for a couple of days and I got to see a castle like out of a fairytale.
