Can't stop crying
Posted , 11 users are following.
I know I've posted quite a lot recently but, everything is just so hard at the moment.
The only thought that calms me is the thought that I could end it all. Every problem would wash away and it can't be any worse than the misery that is life.
I'm sorry to keep posting and going on.
I really hope you are all doing well.

I've just posted because I am in a similar boat at the minute. I just can't stop crying and I feel I can't go out in public because I've had a few near meltdowns the last couple of days whilst I was out of the house.
It really is horrible and I have also thought about ending it because I'm feeling really hopeless at the minute. The only thing to think is that I've pulled through this before so I can again. And so can you.
Hugs to you

If you have pulled through this before you certainly can pull through again.
Good luck, I hope you start to feel better soon - take care of yourself!

I suppose it feels slightly more pessimistic in this present mindset in that I just don't really care about getting better at the moment, so why put the inevitible off?
I won't be doing anything dangerous right now, I will keep trying for now.
Thank you for your lovely message <3 xxx>3 xxx>

I'm seeing my GP next week so talking to her should give me an outlet and some help, I don't know what the outcome will be after that or if I will feel the same.
I've only felt depressed for the last year, I can't even begin to imagine how anyone copes with it for years on end - I feel like enough is enough already when in reality I'm only early on.

I don't want to dissmiss or underestimate your depression but Ozzie has shown great courage in his situation. He is homeless, very ill and still finds the compassion to answer other peoples posts. I have started a thread on this forum for people interested in Ozzies's welfare. This guy took a masive overdose and is still thinking of others.
Have you had any counselling for your depression to explore and express your feelings. This is non judgemental and confidential.
Life is not easy, i live with depression, anxiety and chronic pain which effects my every waking moment and limits my life. I try to make the most of what i can.
Wea are here for you anytime you want to talk.
Best wishes.
Elizabeth.

Fee, if you decide to give life a chance, maybe you will one day be able to help someone else going through what you are....wouldn't that be wonderful? When I was in the terrible place that you are in I would have screamed at anyone who said things would get better.. to me they were stupid, they knew nothing, they had never suffered as I was suffering. But I can look back now and see that they were right. I have never been free from depression and I am terrified of something taking me back to that blackest of places, but I am living and have found a reason to live every day.
Don't feel guilty for sounding self-absorbed....that is one of the main symptoms of the illness, that demon in your head won't let you think of anything else apart from your misery.
I wish I could wave a wand and make you better, but I can't.....I just hope you will read all the helpful posts and see that we have come through something similar to you.....maybe not as bad....but we got through.
Take care, remember that you are a special, special person.
Pat.

I would feel absolutely privileged to one day help somebody who finds themselves in a dark and depressed state and I do think people suffering find it that bit easier talking to people who have been through the same dark times.
I know I post a lot on here or have recently, it is only because I have lost the one person I could speak to. I have always put others first, my entire life - it was the way I was brought up but, if there was ever a time to think about my own self more then yes, this is the time.
I said the thought of suicide calms me. It does, and that probably stems from the fact that it is something you can control when you cannot control anything else. I am not going to do anything dangerous - I wouldn't until I had exhausted all other options and felt as though I was sure I was ready.
Life is indeed very precious.
I am really glad you are feeling as though you are in a more positive place and I pray that you never do go back to that dark, dark place.

That is why you must stay here Fee, the world needs people like you, don't you see that? There are so many uncaring people, I beg you not to let those people take over the world. I know it hurts to live right now, but I promise you it won't always be that way....I PROMISE.
We walk a fine line when we are blighted with this illness, it sounds so stupid to say...but in a way that you can't possibly see now (and maybe you never will) it is a blessing. It can teach you so much, it can make you more compassionate, it can stand you apart from the run of the mill person, it can and does make you "special".
I said it in my last post....you ARE special. Don't waste that. You were made special for a purpose.
Take care my lovely friend and keep posting.

I never thought of it that way, when I did seek anything 'good' I found nothing but it does bring a deeper understanding of these issues, an understanding a lot of people may never know.
Thank you Pat

There may be one or two who would miss me but, time is a great healer and I'm sure they'd be fine.
But, I am not planning on doing anything silly or dangerous at the moment so, it's all ok for now!
