sad&stuck

sad&stuck

Major depression & social anxiety have been ruling my life and I feel so stuck. Lack of motivation, emotional overeating, loneliness..(my partner works nights and sleeps during the day, i have no friends & my family are either away or busy and I feel like I don't want to bother them) feelings of being worthless and hopeless, racing thoughts... I'm tired. And sad. No medication is helping and I have a support team around me (psychologist, psychiatrist, gp, mental health support worker) but I can't help but think why bother. Ive been holding on for so long and it doesn't seem to be getting better. I feel like there's only so much distracting I can do. Sorry, you probably don't want to read my depressing s*&t but thanks if you do.

I am feeling very tired today but am with my baby nephew so watching him is distracting me for now. How are you doing? 💕 @Zoe7

Re: sad&stuck

That sounds really gorgeous @STORMGRL101 - a great distraction - we really need moments like that when we are tired

I'm not great today but it is what it is

Listening to his baby babble talk and seeing his little grin with two teeth showing is adorable. ❤

Re: sad&stuck

I posted on the discussing suicide topic about not knowing who to talk to about this subject because I feel like I need to talk to someone about it. Also because I may get upset or distressed I may not be able to get my words out now I think I will write a letter and maybe show it to my support worker.

Re: sad&stuck

That sounds like a great idea @STORMGRL101 - and a really positive one too... take your time with it and give it to your support worker when you have got down exactly what you want to say...

Thanks for your support @Zoe7 I have started the letter but now the tears are flowing and I feel incredibly bad but I know I just need to keep writing and get through it. 💔
