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

@Former-Member, it sounds like you may not be well enough to go to a family function or bike ride today. Also sounds like you may be in a bit of emotional trouble partly because you've had little or no sleep. It's up to you of course, but I would be inclined to politely state I wasn't well and just try to get some sleep, if possible.

Hey @Former-Member (or cattypiddler as Roald Dahl would write).

you have been amazing on the forums, been reading more than i've been writing lately and havent seen anything 'stupid' yet! you respond with warmth and kindness.. which is just what we all need. I know how hard it is, but try to apply some of that to yourself, because you deserve to be looked after too.

A bike ride sounds like a great idea, being outside in some fresh air might feel ok once you're doing it! I hope that you are ok,

Hi @Former-Member, didn't say good morning earlier, was a bit preoccupied. So, good morning. I hear that you may have been triggered by things on the forum last night. So sorry. It does happen from time to time. Please don't leave us, you are so welcome here. It's clear a number of people love your presence on the forum, even in just the short time you have been with us, same with @Former-Member.

@Former-Member, 'cowboy up' is just one of those cruel things people say to those of us who suffer depression. It's because they don't understand and, sometimes, because they don't want to understand. It is their problem, not yours. Unfortunately we have to live with the bad vibes that can feel so undermining and unhelpful. From what I've read, you are a sensitive person who is doing wonderful things by looking after pop. As @Former-Member has already said, please be as kind to yourself as possible, especially when feeling like this.
