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

Thank you @NatureLover

I appreciate that. I’ve now come to terms with the fact that I’m in here and need to make the most of it. I now know I can do this. Watching the others I know there will be breakdowns and a lot more tears (I’ve never cried so much!)but it’s part of the process!

I hope all is ok with you?

So I’m posting while I’m sitting in this space!


So we have been for a beach walk again this morning. I walk through the water. Then went and had a hot chocolate.

I’ve just said goodbye to the person I was closest too in here. I coped! No tears!

I am feeling really good! I’m taking it while I can. I haven’t felt like this in a long time. I’m allowing myself to enjoy it and just be.

Anyway that’s my share for the moment!

Re: I can’t cope

So my day crashed and burnt. we had difficult people in group and one of the girls has a therapy dog. So that just made it harder. I walked out at the end of the first group and one of the girls followed me to make sure I was ok.

We went out and had a smoke between groups but were running late. The facilitator grabbed me and asked what was wrong so I told her it was the 2

new girls, then the dog was what tipped me over

I went and got prn and went to the second group late. I just burst into tears and the facilitator took me out to a nurse.

OMG it’s a massive roller coaster. Once again o wanted to run. The only word I could focus on on the board was flight.

From the top to the bottom in a couple of hours.

Hey hun @Captain24 ,

You are doing sooooo well. This is a HUGE achievement that you are attending group, walking out to protect yourself, and speaking to nurses about your need.

I see change. I see that things are moving, and that's maybe why it is feeling so hard right you. You have every right to feel this way.

We are proud of you.

Besides the groups, what else were you able to do today?

Re: I can’t cope

We went for a beach walk this morning and I brought a t shirt on it, it says ‘come together’ I ‘felt’ it. @tyme

I was just on the PGC and rocked it! I think I may have requested a little to much prn as I’m feeling really comfortable in sharing what I am learning.

From such an amazing morning to a breakdown during groups to now feeling sort of and being able to share some of what I have learnt.

The nurse that helped me through my breakdown showed me some self-love, self-compassion and positive selfishness that I’m doing and I tick all three boxes in a way I didn’t realise.
