A dark place.. i need help :(

hey guys,

I've hit a depression all time low and i'm ready to give up and don't know what to do about it 😞   

Work problems, money problems, about to be homeless problems, stuck in a bad situation as a carer for my mum, and to top it all off, my girl and 4 yr old have left me for another man.. She was dazzled by a new guy with money and limosines and casinos and stolen away from me on the weekend.

I'm ready for it all to be over.. life is just too hard.. i can't and don't want to deal with it anymore

please talk to me.  i'm desperate.  I have no friends and it's a battle with my mind at the moment, which i'm quickly losing.

help needed 😞

Over-it-all,

I am so sorry to hear your story, you have had to deal with far too much for one person to  handle. But we are here to help, we understand.. you are not alone!

I know what it feels like to give up on the world, I know what it's like to lay there silently thinking of ways to make the pain inside your head and heart end.

But suicide truly isn't the answer, even if is the only thought that brings comfort to you at this time.

Most importantly, please remember, you have a daughter. And no matter what your financial status is, she will ALWAYS love you and will ALWAYS need you.

Is there someone you can stay with while you get back on your feet? Hang in there!

ChinUp.

Hi Over-it-all,

Mate, I know how you feel. I have just had my heart broken as well, and I know how it feels, and the thoughts that run through your mind. Don't even think of the 'easy way out', as you have a kid and probably a family that will be left behind to bear the burden. 

Don't give up!!

It takes a while for the mind to settle, and I have found that the best method is to talk and vent the frustrations to someone that is non judgmental, who will listen. See your GP and maybe get some meds to help relieve the anxiety and depression, and get to see a counselor, a psychologist or a holistic counselor - anyone that you can talk to, that will not respond to your tears.....

As suggested, ask a friend to stay with you for a while, just NOT feeling alone will always help.

Stay strong mate, and keep in touch.

dear Mate, you have been left in a awful situation, one that would certainly devastate you. People always say to themselves 'why the hell has this happened', was it that the almighty dollar has lured her away from me, or was it because I was depressed and lost the goal that I always wanted to achieve for my family, or maybe because I am carer for my mum which took too much attention away from them, or has my wife/girlfriend lost that love she once had for me. These are difficult questions to answer, it might be only one of them or it maybe all of them, never the less it's distressing.

Your little daughter will be thinking 'mummy I want to be with daddy as well', and her absolute love for you will always be there 'thick or thin' no matter what. I genuinely  believe that your wife/girlfriend will tire of this and want to return to you, and this will be because of your daughter who loves you so much, plus seeing her nan. Please see your doctor who will help you with medication as well as seeing a professional therapist, where you can get 10 or 12 free visits, and some psychiatrists bulk bill, so please look after yourself. If something happens to you your beautiful daughter would be so upset and will probably blame your wife/girlfriend. Take care mate. Geoff.

I am a survivor of suicide hope what I write helps you. I have a little boy who is 6 years old now and I watched my family visit me looking devastated when I was in the trauma ward in hospital. With medication seeking professional help you will 100% get through this terrible time and look back on it saying why did I get so upset about it. How did I even contemplate ending my life. You are already half way there by telling us how you feel. There are psychatrists and clinics that bulk bill please organise an appointment is your next step. I truly believe you will overcome this do it for yourself and your daughter you are 100% worth it. God Bless
