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 xx

I am taking my Hubby for his doctor appointment soon '

but can I tell you one of my little stories -- i have a lo of them as I looked after children for 25 years

I was 18 and I was looking after 10 to 12 children a day ranging from 5 weeks old to 12 years old

can you imagine it , and i worked 12 hours a day

and Guess what the children treated me like a big sister , they argued with their mum that I was looking after them , No, they say Shaz plays with us .

and also I was studying like you too , you can do it my @Former-Member, and I am with you

Re: Depression- Really Struggling- may be triggering

It happens through distraction @lik-caterpillar ..... while you are focussed on the fear, that is what you are living ..... when you focus on distractions, that is what you are living instead ..... the sorting out in the background is the reason you go to therapists or seek crisis counselling ..... we can help you wirh the distractions part, and share lived experience with you, but if you need more than that to get through the day, you will need to reach for crisis counselling again.

We are here for you and will sit with you and chat to kee you company anyway, but if you need more support @Former-Member, then jump on the counselling lines ..... they have email too ....
