Feeling very low

Feeling very low

My friends and my family, I feel, could do better without me in their lives. They are throwing a party while I’m in respite and I’m not invited. My promised birthday gift isn’t coming now as it was sold to someone else. If I still want what I was going to be given, I was told to buy it myself. I get bullied by the mrs about my former drug use. It makes me wonder if they actually do care or only care when it is convenient for them.

It shouldn’t matter but it hurts.

I’m a loser anyway. I just feel like running away.

Re: Feeling very low

Hey @CheerBear it’s the weekend here at respite so all I’ve done is sleep. I don’t dare open my mouth about how I’m feeling as I don’t want to get shipped off to the hospital for assessment. It’s all okay is a mantra I’ve adopted for now.

Oh dear @Queenie. That doesn't sound totally ideal (the not daring to open your mouth part). How does that sit with you?

Hope the rest/sleep part is helpful at least.

I have been thinking of you. It's good to see you ❤

Re: Feeling very low

I'm starting to turn the corner @CheerBear . I am beginning to see there is light in the end of the tunnel (and it isn't an oncoming train). I go home in two days so hopefully this feeling continues to improve once I am home.

I am lonely in life, I've discovered. As the Mrs puts the tv as a higher priority than me. That's something I think I have to work on with my new therapist (I got a new one funded by the NDIS). I want to be a more well rounded individual.
