Something’s not right

Struggling: TW suicide

Struggling: TW suicide

I have been struggling a lot lately with suicidal thoughts. It’s become a daily occurrence and it’s been really overwhelming to cope. I am safe right but having to fight this is very exhausting. I feel so trapped, I am tired of living in pain, fear and shame. I feel like a burden to people and unimportant.

I found that too @creative_writer - I had to be so strict on myself that I kept a regular sleep routine so as not to confuse my circadian rhythm.

It's taken me a long time to re-learn to sleep. I don't want to undo all that work.

You have so much insight. It's really good to see.

@tyme I try to maintain regular sleep routines, one of my meds is supposed to help regulate sleep too, and then I have my evening glasses. I don’t know what else to do. I still feel tired after waking up. It’s not an ideal way to start. Like what else do I do?

Re: Struggling: TW suicide

Do you think feeling tired is a physical issue or a symptom of depression? @creative_writer .

I used to have no energy and stayed in bed because of my depression.

Now, I'm bouncing up and out everyday. I just want to get out and do things. This tells me it was my depression causing my tiredness.

@tyme whenever I feel more stable I feel less tired. But then again I am also in more physical pain right now.

It sounds like there's a lot in this @creative_writer . You know your body most. I hope the physical pain subsides soon.

It is a good sign that you feel less tired when you are more stable. It's something to monitor.

@tyme, at this point, I don’t know what I need to do to feel better 😞.

And that's okay @creative_writer - we can only keep trying.

If only things were that easy, I don't believe there would be room for growth.

It IS okay not to know. Things will be revealed in their time.

Fatigue and depression make it hard to concentrate

Re: Struggling: TW suicide

Agreed @creative_writer . Hope you get some answers too.

Anyway, I'm logging off for the evening and won't be on until later in the week. I'll speak to you when I'm on next?
