Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

Unknown userMember09 May 2020, 6:17 pm AEST

Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

I always seem to have moods that fluctuate - I could be feeling ok, or content, then I get depressed, or vice versa. No reason behind it most of the time. Yes I have a Psychiatrist and am on meds. And no this post isn't for attention and sympathy, just needed to vent I guess.

It just seems like whatever I do and say and how much I try to be a good person and support people, I'm not good enough and am left out - there's always people better. I'm a failure. I try my best.

I'm just worthless and many other negative things, sigh.

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@Jynx that's fine Jynx and I sent an email saying I'd like all my posts deleted please and did post removal requests, I apologised for spamming mods with them.

Yeah I'm sorry I took @Former-Member 's words the wrong way and if I was rude so I apologise Sherry

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@Former-Member no you're fine, I don't mind talking to you. You didn't do or say anything wrong it was just me misinterpreting and taking what you said the wrong way. I do apologise sincerely. I hope I didn't upset you and I hope I didn't sound rude and hate on you, wasn't my intention.

But you're right, I could stick to 1 thread. I'm just not sure what to say and whatnot. Plus I don't want to annoy people tagging them all the time

You can still talk to me if you wish. I'm sorry I took what you said the wrong way. I do that with everyone even if people are trying to help, its nothing personal its just me. Like I said my Avoidant Personality Disorder makes me fragile and sensitive to whatever people say

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@Jynx if it's okay please I'd like to keep this thread of mine: Need advice please (info below).

But you can delete all of my other threads (I've emailed and made post removal requests).

And you didn't hurt me @Former-Member it was just me being sensitive and fragile, you did nothing wrong. I'm sorry if I upset you and just deeply sorry for everything.

Friends still? We can still talk I just shouldn't take things to heart so much but I can't help it and the AVPD doesn't help (yes thats one of my diagnoseses)

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@Jynx just saw it.

Sorry I didn't mean to cause any conflict and make so many posts thats why I requested for them all to be deleted.

Maybe it would be best if I take a break or leave for good

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@Jynx just replied to your email.

@Former-Member I hope I didn't upset you. I'm deeply sorry and I'll just keep overthinking because it was my fault for taking it the wrong way.

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@Jynx you can delete this thread especially, and I'd like my other ones deleted please, all except these two, please keep those two but you can delete this and every other one of my posts. I replied to your email too. Please keep these 2 threads but delete all of my other ones:

Need advice please (info below).

How do I know when I find a good mental health GP & when to change?

@Former-Member are you ok? I feel so bad and like I upset you and others and I'm so sorry, I'll just keep overthinking because its my fault for overreacting. I get what you were trying to say and you're right so I'm sorry for getting upset and taking it the wrong way

I'm sorry too @outlander @Former-Member @Lee82 and others

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

misunderstanding happen here @Former-Member possibly more then you may think because unlike when we talk to people offline we cant judge tone, facial expressions etc. they sometimes just look like words on a screen which is where things can get muddled up.
no need to leave, you can chat here or wherever. you've may members here willing to support you

Re: Depression (not a post for sympathy & attention, just venting)

@outlander thats a good point, I just feel like I upset everybody and screwed everything up. I replied to Jynx's email and comments here as they can probably see. None of that was my intention, I'll try to keep to those 2 threads that I mentioned in the comment (I tagged them) everything else can be deleted
