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

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

well that all sounds great to concentrate on @Former-Member you just need to concentrate on it all to feel it.... that's the key... to just feel peaceful from all those wonderful things you described so beautifully.

Then you think through what is bothering you... while you feel peaceful.

I know you said it doesn't work for you.. and I understand that.. because it takes practice and it's really hard at first cos we want to go for quick distractions rather than calming ourselves.

I remember having that trouble too.

Whoops @Former-Member .... dozed off in the middle of answering you before .... then my bro text me about meeting up tomorrow morning (he lives near here) and woke me up ...

Just wanna say, I love my butterfly .... thank you ❣. I have copied it onto my iPad.

Drawings and paintings can very very technically correct, but lack character and "life" .... your butterflies have both character and life to them.

Well done @Former-Member .... 🤗💕

@Former-Member I need to get to sleep, my eyes are stinging I think it is because I had a very emotional day... try to listen to those beautiful things you described and just float in them. Especially if you can lie in a dark room and concentrate on all those sounds you were describing. They are all very calming things.

If you can't then find distracations until you are so tired you fall asleep.

You take care 😄 I shall catch you tomorrow and you can hopefully start your next painting. Your Zoefly is very beautiful. I am excited to see your next one.

@Former-Member oh I just saw the one you did for F&H..... my gosh girl! How can you say that's not good! It's fantastic, it's beautiful, it even "floats"... you really are very good. It even has a very delicate feel to it. Don't underestimate yourself.... both of those are just gorgeous and very artistic.

💝💗
