Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Got something that's bugging you?

Want to vent, but don't want a response?

Sometimes our minds can get stuck in circles trying to sort out an issue. This can keep you up at night, or make it hard to focus on other things. I find that putting things away, and not thinking about it temporarily can be helpful.

This is the place to get it out, and then give yourself permission to let it go.

Maybe you will need to get back to it some other time, but this is space where you can put it in a place so that you can leave it for some time and (try) not to worry about it in the mean time.

It's a thread where people don't need to reply, it purely just to get it out your worry and concerns.

If you want to show your support for someone, hit the 'like' button. In this thread, 'like' doesn't mean that you 'like' someone's issue, but you support them in letting it out.

So write down your concerns, put it in a vault, shut the door, and allow yourself to walk away from it.

Pls note: If you are reading other people's posts, please respect that they don't want a response. Show your support by 'Liking' their post.

Hey there @Emelia8 Sounds like you’re having a tough time today with these very heavy feelings of anxiety and panic, so sorry to hear this 💜 It is really important you get qualified help beyond a peer support service when things get this painful. We'd recommend right now reaching out to the SANE Help Centre you can even book a call here. Or the team at BlueKnot here. You deserve qualified one to one support.

Starting to feel like I am existing in a pretend place. Not real. Can't manage me. A lot of it I have messed up.

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Depression is the most unpleasant thing I have ever experienced...it is the absence of being able to envisage that I will ever be cheerful again, have a sparkle in my eye again.
The absence of hope. The absence of strength. The absence of self-worth. The absence to see the future.

That very deadened feeling, which is so very different from sad. Sad hurts, it's a natural feeling. Depression is much different. It hurts you physically, mentally and spiritually - you ache, from the moment you open your eyes in the morning, till you can finally close them again at night. I wish I didn't open my eyes each morning.

Hi @WIP,

Thank you for sharing. They are quite profound words which I can imagine many people might relate to from certain points in their own experiences with depression.

I can feel that tonight is particuarly heavy and difficult for you, but please remember, it is one point in time in your entire story. And please reach out to SCBS or Lifeline this evening if you need to.

Warmest,

Basil.

Why can't it be daylight yet, why can't the blackness be done.

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

I am exhausted both physically and emotionally. The pressure to be ok is unreal and unrealistic at this point in time. I am honestly doing my best to be ok, I wear a smile every time someone is near so they see the hurt and pain that I suffer everyday. It's not that I don't want them to see it in me but rather I don't want to see it in them. This is not a journey but those I love as well. They have to ride my emotionally waves as well, they are struggling with the fact there is really nothing they can do to "get" me better and it's a waiting game for them either I get better or their worse fear happens. I hate the pain I see in their faces when I am struggling, I hate myself for doing this to them. The look of pain even in my counsellor's eyes yesterday when I told her about my last attempt to leave this world was too much. I just don't know where to turn next, I am doing so many treatments and they just don't seem to be making a dent in the slightest. I am washing their time, hubby's money and I just don't see the point anymore
