Something’s not right

Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

I realise how little i mean to people. i mean nothing.
its abit like walking down a long dark street never knowing when a light might flick on to show me the way or give me some hope.
im tired of trying. tired of hoping. tired of coping. tired of exisiting. tired of breathing. i think im done.
dear everyone that knows me, im sorry im such a disapointment. im sorry i cant live up to your expectations. im sorry i was born. im sorry if ive hurt you. im sorry if ive made you miserable. i deserve all the blame and hatred i have gotten. everything is my fault and im sorry.
im locked within the walls of my own minds and i just cant escape it.
Pain. Pain all the time. It runs through my veins a fast flowing river with nothing there to stop it.
Just get over it they say. i wish i could, im living minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day. im struggling with memories that haunt me everyday and i dont think they will ever fade.
my thoughts are overwhelming and what hurts me the most is when people pretend to care but really they dont.
im so scared. things just arent the same anymore. im not doing anything right anymore. ive lsot myself, the person i once knew isnt here anymore. i dont know what to do anymore. i feel like i dont belong here or in reality. no where. i have constant feelings of being unworthy and hopeless, of being a prisioner in my own body.
i have so much pain physically and mentally. i try to stay happy. i try to keep smiling. i try to be brave. i try to be stong. i try to act like everything is ok but im far from it.
i never know when im going to have a 'good' day and at any minute im triggered and takes such a long time to recover.
there are monsters living inside me, attacking me, ripping me apart from the inside. i dont think its ever going to end
but its ok "ill just have to get over it" just as expected

That looks good @Former-Member. All organised and ready to go!

Don't be concerned about going away and only having the nights to study. If you have done the revision beforehand - like I mentioned earlier - then you will only need to read over notes to refresh your mind - not to learn or re-learn anything. It will be ok little monster

ill be ok handling my nerves until prob a week until the exam then ill prob be wreck and the day of it as well
maybe the change of scenery around that time might give me a bit refreshing and hopefully ill be able to think clearly. i know where we are going its very popular with the dolphins so maybe ill go chill with them and think of you and hopefully ill see lots of butterflies and ill know everyones with me

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

Start Monday @Former-Member - give yourself some time to get organised and relax tomorrow - then start fresh on Monday. Stick to a routine as much as you can and gice yourself regular breaks - that is really important - especially to lessen any anxiety with difficult material that you are revising.

The break away will be good after 4 solid weeks of studying. Even if it is babysitting ALL the time - try and do things that you enjoy also - like drawing with your sisters. Draw something for them to colour in for example - that way they are included and you are still doing something you like to do at the same time. Another one my kids at school really like is a progressive story - each of you draw or write a part of a story in turn (with the same theme) and then put it all together to form a complete story - this can be fun as well as funny.

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

yeah @Zoe7 i wont be babysitting the whole time i can tell you that now. i dont mind chilling with them and spending some family time though hoepefully without too much blame and guilt while im there.

but the change will be good esp if i get to see butterflies and dolphins too.

speaking of stories i started writing one the other day- just a short story i might be able to finish that tonight and share it will you in another thread if yous are interested in that?

There is a thread called Writing as a Form of Therapy - post in there when you finish and tag me from there - I think I still get those notifications but tag me just in case @Former-Member

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

ok @Zoe7

hows your painting going? are you still going to paint that butterfly for me?

In response to: Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

I actually just posted to @Faith-and-Hope that I have done some more of the Stepping Stone image. I actually want to buy three small canvases to do your butterfly, mine and faithandhope's as a set so give me a bit more time for those ones. I have put my butterfly girl aside just for now - want to do the stepping stones first - it is easier to concentrate when I am feeling calmer. @Former-Member
