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

You sound like an amazing sister and daughter and granddaughter @little-caterpillar. Feel free to join a 'how many hours until bedtime' count down with me anytime haha.

So nice to see you had some amazing company here today.

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

I really like, and kind of actually need, down time once they go to bed @Former-Member. It's my opportunity to stop, breathe and regroup. I'm struggling with my meds for this reason because they're taken at night and it's lights out for me once I take them. It's a good idea but I lose that down time and don't like that at all. Sounds like you might need an early night though in which case I hope it happens for you

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

with your meds @Former-Member could you take them half hour an hour after your littlies are asleep so that you get abit of down time first?

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

@Former-Member, thanks so much, that's such a lovely thing to say.

Great idea from @Former-Member about the timing of your sleep meds. Is it possible to only take them when you have had your down time?

Edit: simultaneous posting there with the two of us, @Former-Member. Maybe five hours down time might not be possible but, yeah, taking the meds a bit later might give you at least some of what need.

@Former-Member lol yeah sound normal with littlies

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

It's a really good idea @Lil_caterpillar and @Mazarita and i have to find that balance asap. I get a terrible hangover effect and struggle to get up if I take them late too so it's a muddle at the moment. Referral to psychiatrist is looking like an almost definite now and just thinking of that is too much for me. Big big jumble 😞
