I'm so tired and sad

Posted , 5 users are following.

I'm so sad and tired I feel I'm just going through the same cycle every day I'm a loser and a failure as a father and a husband just a person in general I have nothing to offer anybody. like I'm just a shadow that nobody can see people say they care about me but I find it hard to believe I wish and pray that I would go to sleep and not wake up but I'm not that lucky and as much as I don't want to live I'm a loser to do anything about it.

    hi Paul, why are you being So hard on yourself?

    why do you say you're a loser?

    depression REALLY sucks....I know that first hand.

    but have you tried breaking it down?

    what's going on in your life right now?

    Do not give up. Your family must love you & they depend on you. Are you seeing a Dr.? If not, make an appt. ASAP. There is hope for you. We all feel the way you do at one time.

    Pray, also. Ask for God's help. Take care of yourself. You are an important person to your family & your friends. Hang on.

    Paul i know exactly how you feel. I've been in the same place for a long time now. not knowing myself any more. my second husband died 4 years ago now and prior to that i was in an abusive relationship with a man who abused his own children and me. i feel a useless mother and wife to my second husband. yet he loved me. i can't think why to me I'm not worthy of being loved. but you have to stay. i could never take my own life simply because I couldn't do that to my children. you might not believe it but they need you. you cant let them live the rest of their lives asking that question" was i so bad daddy preferred to die than stay with me?"

    you will have let them down if you did that.
