Something’s not right

I am struggling at the moment

I am struggling at the moment

I don't know why I am really writing this. There seems to be part of me which says that I need to pull my head in and do this alone and another part who so desperately wants to reach out for help. I am really struggling. I'm not coping at all. For much of the day I've thought about all the reasons to die and there are hundreds. There is also one reason to live that keeps me here. I can't let down my oldest son and cut out his trip of a lifetime. He would have to come home and pick up all the pieces for everyone. I keep telling myself I have to hold on until he comes back and then I can let go but this keeps me waiting to die not choosing to live. I have a cold sore that now goes from the corner of my eye the length of my nose and it's slowly creeping across my face from stress. It started on Wednesday and each morning I wake to find more of my face engulfed by it. I am so tired. I am so sorry to write this and I know I'm so lucky to have friends on here that care. I don't want anyone to have to deal with this as it is so depressing so I started this thread as a way of saying that I'm not well when writing here and please don't feel obliged to read or respond.

I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for all your care, kindness and support during my latest going down the rabbit hole. I feel so blessed to have you all support me through this. You helped to make it not as bad as it could have been. I still have a long way to go. I would dearly love to retire this page but imagine I have a bit more work to do first. Sending love and hugs to all. 💜🤗💐🤗💜

Re: I am struggling at the moment

hello dear @Former-Member

i am probably the last person to be writing on here because i am not in a good place at the moment.

I too connect with Alice in wonderland.

im not sure what your apology is about. I do know that you do not need to say sorry to me.

I thank you for being here for me when i first came on here.

perhaps you dont need to retire the page you will just stop writing on it in your own time when you are ready. I dont see any clock.

i wish you calm, warmth and hope xxxxxxxxx

Re: I am struggling at the moment

@Former-Member please know there is never a bad time to write on here. Usually when you feel bad that's a good time to come on. My shame is I now have 101 pages of being on here when unwell but I also can see some of the changes I've made so I guess it's not all bad. Please feel free to talk about how you are feeling if it helps. Thank you once again for your kind words. Sending hugs 💜🤗

I struggle every day and I am just numb with it all.

Hi @roses,

It can make you feel numb or sometimes like Groundhog Day. Welcome to the forums. Please feel free to say more if you want. 💜🤗

Re: I am struggling at the moment

Hi @roses welcome to the forums. I can relate to how you Are feeling. I feel like im just detached from everything lately. Sort of numb I guess just very tired.
I'm glad you posted, the forums are a great space to found some others who can relate and share experiences or suggestions for coping...
Hope being here is helpful,
Lj
