Something’s not right

why can't I cope longer?

why can't I cope longer?

Something's not right alright... Not sure why I'm falling to pieces atm and short of listening ears. Hope someone here can put up with me.

I'm walking in circles at home... well, not literally, just can't seem to stay focused or finish anything... if I can even remember what it is I got out of the chair to do half the time...

And snappy with people, everywhere, rude even (which is so out of character for me), the slightest hint of being 'had' or criticised or misunderstood... oh boy, I just can't keep it in atm. The internal pressure cooker wants to explode & I don't know how to stop it.

I'm at the crossroads in life, moving and deciding if to bother starting again, or just quit on life / die.

And what's scary about that lately, is the thought of it doesn't make me scared anymore - like its just what I'm supposed to do. Do you think God would factor in a premature departure (suicide / depression?) like he accepts other illnesses that separate spirit & body?

Its just those kinds of dark thoughts, but not like crisis level or that, just trying to find my way, or other alternatives, something to look fwd to.... to keep me here. I can't see a future worth living & don't feel the internal resources keep fighting.

Don't tell me to run off & get antidepressants... I'm on them. Or psychotherapy - that's in progress... I think maybe I just want to be heard. Not changedchanged (disapproved of)... just cared about... Is that too much to ask from life? Oh I know God loves me and all that, but I still live on earth...

Do you know what I'm trying to say?Does anyone ever feel this way? I just feel so totally spent - the end of the line... ... ...

My two church supports are away at the moment, not that I lean on them heavy, I'm just conscious there gone...

Ha! Horrible feeling like the only close people in ya life need to take a holiday away from you, well, maybe some of the others I notice they have to deal with more, none the less - feeling abandoned 😞

Hi @Former-Member

Think it might just be easy's here. Was thinking of just having toast.

Hope the house is clean again 😉 But they certainly are worth it.

Mine is laying next to me at the moment sound asleep!!

Hi @Former-Member Soup sounds a Good idea.

I had Pumpkin Soup at my fortnightly MH Social Lunch, last Wednesday.

I rarely have Soup at Home, unless it comes out of a Tin.

They even gave me a "Doggie Bag (container) of Soup" to bring home - So I had Pumpkin Soup for Dinner (on Wednesday), as well.

Whenever I come inside from doing my Aviaries - I track gooey muck (rotted bird see/ soil) all down the corridor through house.

So I've taken to "Brushing my shoes off" with Dustpan Brush, every time I come back inside (to avoid that).

So I can relate to tracking Dog Poo through your house (not fun).

Re: why can't I cope longer?

@ Adge - pumpkin soup is yum 😋 but not that bird cage yuk under foot ☹️ I reckon you should have gum boots to do the bird cages maybe. Glad you dust off with banister brush at least, I've heard diseases can be in the fine bird poop dust. You inspire me how you care for the birds 🕊️ 👍

Thanks @ Shaz51 @ Snowie

Yes my floor is all good now - the water is dirtier than I care to admit, love that smell of pinoclean though 💌.

Oh, is it Monday already :face_with_rolling_eyes: LOL 🤣 What happened to the weekend? And it seems so quiet outside, like a public holiday 🤔 hmm... Na, not really, just being silly here. Thanks for the well wishes Snowie, hope the week is kind to you too. Nice day out, I really should take GG for a walk 💗🌷💗

I've had couple missed calls from private number (which I don't pick up) such a pain when they not courteous enough to leave a message. Can't be serious then I say. Oh, just remembered, I gave Rivers my phone number last week, they probably passed it on. Hate that.
