having a bad morning

having a bad morning

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. 😞

Hi everyone and @Former-Member
Struggling. Laying in bed quietly crying while hubby is asleep. Tears are just streaming down my face.

Hi @BlueBay. Really sorry to hear that you are struggling so just now. But dont forget that tears are a release of emotion and tension etc, so I hope it helps you to feel a little better in the long run. What has caused you to struggle so badly today? Anything you feel like you'd like to talk about? Sending through a big hug to you.

Just caught up @BlueBay, MIL decline after a fall. It often happens with the frail & aged, very hard on the family. You feel deeply for everyone don't you sad girl. I'm glad you can cry, hopefully let out some of the distress. Stay strong 🙂

Re: having a bad morning

Hi @Former-Member and friends. Thank for being there for me last night, I guess I was pretty emotional and not in a good mind. I am sure it's the medication as well as triggering stuff from yesterday.

Update on MIL - the doctor just called my husband and she has 4 fractured ribs and a slight fracture in her back. He said they will send her back to nursing home and they will monitor medication. There is nothing they can do in hospital.

I am home alone, cleaning day today. I have just done 3 loads of washing, vac the floors and just mopped the wet areas. I have another headache coming on, i would like to go for a walk but there is no motivation to get up and go.

@Former-Member it's so hard to see an old person so frail now with her dementia getting worse.

@Former-Member I ended up falling to sleep, thank you for your kind words and hugs

Hope everyone is okay. xxoo

@Decadian hope you are okay this morning, been thinking about you. Hugs. xxoo

Hi @BlueBay

It sounds as if your day off is pretty busy - I guess I did all of that on a Saturday - and that would have been my day off and I was busy all day too

It is hard seeing someone you love drifting away with old age and dementia and now injuries. There is nothing they can do for your MIL in hospital - alas - and not much in the Nursing Home either.

My parents stayed in a pretty classy place - but Dad was too frail and ill at the end of his life to stay there and was in a regular nursing home where they are so busy - in the time I was visiting him there I know he was well cared for - but it is a sad place - and he was ready to leave and did

I really feel for you going through all of this - it is very hard - I will be thinking of you and I know you are thinking of me - and yes - I am plodding - I don't know if I will get it all done - I am on the edge of my family and don't know yet when my aunt's funeral is - but I have read her death notice today on-line

I am feeling dazed but amazed you have done so much in such a short space of time

Thinking about you

Decadian

Re: having a bad morning

So sorry to read about your MIL @BlueBay The poor dear - her suffering would be indescribable, needing so much support and compassion right now at such a vulnerable time in her life. My heart goes out to her - hope she finds reprieve soon 😢
