someone to talk to

[too little time]

Hey all....

Im new here so don't know if im posting in the right bit or not.

Im struggling. I'm struggling being here in an empty house, no love, no boys, no future, the feeling of being unlovable, the feeling that every time I find myself happy something comes along to kick me back down.

JUst when I feel im beating depression it has a way of upping its game....and I don't have the fight anymore. I have no reason to have the fight anymore.

 Came out of hospital yesterday after taking an overdose.  I was in for 3 nights. I dont know how to shake the feelings.

I know that feeling too, just when you think everything is ok, just when you think that you've won, then bam, life hits you full in the face with something else.

Keep fighting, you can beat it, or at least give it a damn good kicking

hi there too little time
can I just say that I understand when you say that you feel unlovable I've been there and it took quite a while for me to learn to accept that I can be loved and most importantly I deserve to be as do you. I know it can be tough to find reasons to go on when things feel at their worst and it seems you have no future but sometimes it's just that we cannot see the reasons to go on not that they are not there I know that depression has a way of seemingly beating us down time after time but eventually with help ( in my case a lot) we can learn to fight it i'm glad you are no longer in hospital and I hope you don't need to go back are you getting any help if you don't mind me asking ? try and keep posting here as it can help even if you only vent.
take care

Hey all

I spoke to my gp yesterday. She understands ALL my problems through life and knows this last one of being left by partner was just the last straw. Its as I said to her, its difficult to wake up every morning and know you have the same fight and the same struggle and know that at the end of it all there is no reward....so what is the reason to fight? Why do I put myself through it....or any of us?
I know people have got through it...but they are the lucky ones.

I've accepted my position and the fact hat some people just weren't designed to be happy in life...no matter how low they set the target or how hard they try to reach it.

Hence why I have given up, and as I said to my gp yesterday, if I had the energy I would attempt again but I feel I haven't got the energy to make the effort for a successful attempt.

Lets see how it goes

Hi Too little time, i too understand where you are coming from, been down that road a few times in my past,
 it is always good to have an understanding doctor, mine is just the same.

You can get through this.

[Catbrian]

This must be heartbreaking.  It will take time but you too can get through this

[Leo]

I can relate to those feelings. I was there not so long ago.

Take one day at a time, an hour at a time. That's the way I got through.

It's a scary place to be. Has your GP put in any further support with a mental health team or a change in medication?
