Worst Thing Ever

Hey there @Koa30 ,

What you are going through is certainly not uncommon. There was a period in my life where I has similar feelings.

Please know you are not alone. We are here for each other.

Yeah I know I'm not alone and I'm here for everyone too... I'm new to Sane and just voicing how I feel and what I personally go through.... It's not nice... @tyme

Very true. I'm sorry to hear how hard and unpleasant it is for you at the moment @Koa30 .

Please don't think I'm dismissing your pain at all. I hear you @Koa30 .

What do you think will help? I may be able to direct to you some threads. e.g. if you wanted to just vent, or if you wanted to just hang out with people, or you want a laugh.....

Anything you think would be helpful right now?

Hi,

it’s true that this might be a low ebb but things will improve after a while, and you will look back on an awful experience that is over.

if you can hang on for dear life you will be amongst the strongest people around. And you could look forward to a time of peace.

Hi @Koa30

Welcome to the Sane forums. So nice to meet you.

I can resonate a lot with many of your dot points. This mental health journey is hard, tiring and seems to take over our lives. I don't think they sound crazy at all. They are very real feelings that you are having.

I just want to acknowledge your strength and courage in actually writing them down on here. That in itself is not easy.

Please know that you are not alone. We are here with you and only a tag away.

Speak soon

It's getting really bad lately... I am drinking and gambling heavily lost $200 maybe more on pokies today at the pub and spent more on booze.... I am currently intoxicated and not feeling well....

I hate myself I am an Alcoholic and Gambler... As well as being depressed...

People are always asking me why I always play pokies or whatever and I say I am an addict I will bounce back here and there.... But if your not an addict then you don't really understand..

Just need to do something to change my life

I'm so sorry to hear how hard it is for you right now @Koa30 .

You deserve to get help @Koa30 . You are not alone. Have you ever reached out to someone? There are people who want to help you.
