Feeling so down
I’ve been feeling so down, I feel like I’m worthless and that nobody cares…
im at the point where I’ve hurt myself again but I cant tell my friends or family because I feel like they would say “it will be okay” and brush it under the rug… it’s not okay I’m not okay, I’m struggling so much to stay strong for everyone and myself.
I don’t want to be around anymore, I’m sick of feeling like I’m hurting everyone. I’m sick of hurting
@loyalSummer5658,
Hi summer,
It's not easy to reach out and tell others whats going on when things aren't pretty . It's easier to keep a facade over it than open up. It's easier but it also takes a toll on us. And many of can't be a cheerful company for others around is when we are hurting. I get you. Try not to feel ashamed about it. They may not deserve it . But that guilt is hardly yours to shoulder summer. It's difficult to be kind to others when we are finding it difficult to be kind to ourselves. And You are NOT worthless. None of us are. Take care. 🫂
@loyalSummer5658,
And I know something like "it will get better" sounds crazy at times like this. And reasonably so, because in all the faze if struggle, it's not easy to believe those sweet words. Just know that if we can work on it , we can make it better. It's damn hard sometimes. I get that. But you can do it eventually
I appreciate your kind words but I’m at the point where I’m ready to give up now, I’ve had enough of everyone walking all over me, I’ve been to the doctors but tablets and councillors aren’t working for me… I’m at a loss on what else I can do
You should be sick of hurting because no one should be in that spot. Have you thought about talking to a doctor? @loyalSummer5658
I’m at the point where I’m ready to give up, I have been going to the doctors for years and nothing works, I’ve tried tablets and councillors but nothing seems to work for me
I have tried lots of that stuff too and it look a number of years before it began to really have an impact. I often felt quite exhausted.
But I began to realize that each time I tried, I was learning something. I started to have mini moments that were okay. Then those built into longer moments. Things will never be what they once were because I will always be at risk for going downhill again. But I manage those bad moments better than I did before. @loyalSummer5658
