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

Thinking of you @Former-Member, wishing I had a magic wand. Don't give up, it's a long journey, it takes so much patience. But every moment of every day, it is getting better

she sat alone

alone and at home

where her screams were silent but her mind was violent

her insecurities deep inside

and they eat her alive

her faces says happy

but her eyes say pain

theats just how the day goes again and again

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

thats ok @Spookytookims

ive tried three times.

today we were at the horses and she just got a new horse and i went over and said oh hes a nice horse- she didnt answer me

i said whats his name and she told me his name

and i said oh hes really cute are you riding today

she grunted and said nope

im selling this horse anyway i dont like him and then walked away i thought she was getting another brush but she went and sat in the car and played on her phone and sat on the back of her mums car

i left it and then tried to engage in conversation and she walked away again

'shes done it a few times now and ive tried to repair it and when im there she either ignores me or rolls her eyes at what i do or speaks really bluntly to me or not at all

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

@Former-Memberyeah well sadly I think it's time to step back from her if that's how she is acting... it's her problem not yours and that sounds quite immature in that she doesn't have the developed skills to handle whatever it is in a more constructive manner.

Doesn't make it any easier on you of course, but as you said, the best way seems to be you just wait and see if she contacts you at some point because to keep re-hurting yourself when that is the coldness you are receiving is not good and not self caring.

Very sad when things work out that way, and hard to accept.

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

yeah i guess so @Spookytookims well now that shes not around i really dont have anyone off the forums at all. im totally alone even in a room full of people 😞

why is life so hard, what did i do to deserve everything. i obviously did something

i hate being 20 its so far away from being old and wise and knowing what to do

@Former-Member don't worry about age.. it's just a number... believe me some older people are no wiser as well... and it is by experience we get wise. It just doesn't happen without those experiences. Believe me.

@Owlunar We certainly have this bit in common. Everyone in my world was out of their depth with my muddle - including me. The only difference of course was that they could walk away from...well...me...and I couldn't. My world is much calmer now without other people in it.

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

i definently believe you @Spookytookims

i just wish i was smarter

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

@Phoenix_Rising that really makes me very sad. It's such a horrible situation but at the same time if it has brought you some relief then I guess there is that. So I'm not sure how to feel about it for you. I see both sides and they conflict inside me. Whichever you prefer I would designate my settled reaction I guess.

@Former-Member you are senstive. and when emotion is the overwhelming way we are feeling I don't think smart or otherwise comes into it. Emotions are very strong and no matter how smart someone is, if they don't or can't think through their emotions that feeling stays. and sometimes our emotions are so strong, that can't be done.. and they stay for a while until we can put them somewhere, and sometimes they come back and we have to do it all over again. That's just life, well not "just"... that is life, and what we learn or don't learn, along the way, makes who we are.

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

I'm seconding Spooky here @Former-Member with "smart". And adding that 'smart' can mean so many things. It can mean knowing when friendships are toxic. Or when something doesn't feel right. It means trying and learning new things. Smart to me is also reaching out when you need to. It's doing something that might feel hard but that you know is right. These are all ways I see you being 'smart' and many people much older than 20 don't have or use these smarts.

Gently on yourself if you can 💛
