I am feeling that my life at the moment is crap. I am so depressed and find that more so in the mornings. I hate myself so much, the way I feel, the way I act and behave. I know people will say to me 'oh just get over it' or 'you're not trying hard enough' - well to those people who say that: Do you have a mental illness; do you know what it's like to have depression and feel so dark that you cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel; do you self harm to get rid of your emotions and to feel the pain; or do you think about suicide because it's all too much and you can't handle the pain anymore - NO. So don't tell me to just 'move on' or 'stop being too sensitive'.
I am not having a good morning this morning; tears are flowing as i am typing. And I have to get ready for work; damn work. Sometimes I wonder if life is worth living and why?
I really don't know how i am going go today at work; I feel so depressed. 😞
I believe that moments like this help us to get back on track. Don't be so tough on yourself - this isn't a reflection of you failing, or being a bad person.
I think I've shared this image before:
I'm not sure what you should do with your medication - so perhaps it's worth checking in with the GP or the psychiatrist as to what you should do.
We're here tonight if you need us. But be sure to call Lifeline if you need more support.

Re: having a bad morning
Thanks @Appleblossom & @Faith-and-Hope, for acknowledging my wonderful news about my son. It's been so hard. Have something to look forward to with his grad,
he's given me notice not to get upset or anything, think he's a bit anxious his dad & i might cause a scene (childhood echos of family court battles & dvo dramas i suspect), so i hope, please pray i have enough strength to still stand proud, by myself. With the x & his new woman propping each other up, and his fiance's big family lined up together, watching my son on the stage. Oh boy, scary thoughts, trying to get him to let me bring a friend. The bpd pain of being left out, alone, not belonging, not wanted, not loved and my baby girl not there, Oh dear, crying just thinking about it. Best just focus on the makeover - go see the hairdresser for a plan, lose some weight, window shop for outfits... Thats CBT for ya, feel better again.

Dont let anything steal joy from this special moment you share in a heart-bond with your son, no matter who else is there 💐
