Something’s not right

I drowning under the weight of everything

I drowning under the weight of everything

I really need support. Everything is just so overwhelming. I can't focus or concentrate on anything anymore. My relationships are suffering or nonexistent. I hate being alone. I need physical company. The harder I try the faster I fall. I don't know what I'm meant to do anymore. I can't do this I'm losing the ones I love dance and care for the most but I really don't know to do anymore. I can barely keep my head above the water.

Re: I drowning under the weight of everything

Hey there @xFreiyonx ,

Welcome to the forums. Thank you for taking the time to post.

I hear you are reaching out for support as life is so challenging right now.

If you feel you need to speak to someone urgently, please contact: Lifeline 13 11 14

Alternatively, if you aren't registered already, feel free to have a look at SANE's RecoveryClub where you can access 1:1 support, group sessions and resources: https://www.sane.org/recovery-club

Do you have any formal or informal supports?

Hi@xFreiyonx

Really sorry to hear that you are having a difficult time. Life can be really stressful at times. If things get too much please call the mental healthline line in your area and they will send someone out to have a chat with you. Please be extra gentle with yourself.

Hi @xFreiyonx 

It can be so hard to keep going when it feels like you’re drowning. All you can do is try your best to stay afloat. Things can and do get better, there is always hope even if you can see it right now. I know that might not feel reassuring at the current moment. If you can, keep on dancing. Having a hobby/something to do can help to pass the time and give you a break from your mind.

@BAO Unfortunately no, I don't have any informal or formal supports. The only support I had has left my life again. 😔

Re: I drowning under the weight of everything

This year has just been a constant hit after hit after hit and it just won't stop like I'm already down at the moment like stop kicking me. I understand the whole mental health helpline things but it doesn't help me. I need that in-person company just to feel another presence around, I don't know it's just a comfort thing I suppose

Re: I drowning under the weight of everything

This whole year has been a constant bombardment of issues that have pushed me down and won't let me back up.

Re: I drowning under the weight of everything

I am sorry to hear that this is your experience @xFreiyonx, It can be extremely difficult to navigate situations and our feelings without that support readily available. Reaching out when you recognize you need that help shows so much strength, and just like you have done tonight on SANE it could be a really good idea to try connecting with some online other supports available to you, such as Lifeline 13 11 14 or Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636. They are available 24/7 and you can connect with them over the phone.

I hope you have a gentle night
