Sick of my life. I'm sick of existing in pain all the time both mentally and physically. My depression is winning. I don't think anything can help.
My medication doesn't seem to work. I've been seeing a psychologist but feel even that isn't enough to help me.
While I wouldn't harm myself I just pray everynight when I go to sleep that I just won't wake up the next day. Going through another day is unbearable
I just needed to vent as I have no friends or support

Dear Miserable,
Oh my goodness, I could have written those words of yours myself! I do understand what it is like to be in your position and to have those feelings.
There are times when the emotional and the physical pain is just too much to handle. It is tough when it gets like that, really horrid.
Today I have been walking around in circles and even went to bed for a while to try and escape how I am feeling. Now I have come here to see if I can help anyone.
Is there one thing you could do to help make your life a little better?
Do you have things you can do to help distract your mind? I have been reading books lately, they take me to a different place. The library is full of all kinds of books.
Is there a park close to you or somewhere to admire a bit of nature where you can just sit and listen to the birds for a while.
Our thoughts can dominate how we feel. Are you able to accept the negative thoughts for what they are, just thoughts and try to do something that will provide a little sense of meaning and purpose to your life?
Once again I do realise how hard that can be at times!
When you are feeling so low, would it help to phone a support service like Lifeline or Beyond Blue? It helps me sometimes.
Wish I had the words to make life feel better for you!
Regards from Dools

Thanks for writing everything that's in my head right now. I've shut everyone out and now it's me vs the world. Hope things improve for you. There has to be more than this feeling.

Hi Miserable
i feel you.I have days when I cant function physically and mentally. everything falls into a heap and I hate life. Doom takes over. My feelings get so intense that I need to release them somehow.
sometimes I manage to catch it early and counteract this negative feelings. I did ring BB, and the suicide line many times. They are very helpful. The webchat too. Its good to talk. I often just cant stand the feelings inside me anymore or the position of my life.i feel useless helpless and totally overwhelmed.
hear you are at that point.
was at that point last week. BB even called me as they were worried
Today I still feel physically no good ( I got physical injury) but mentally better. Just saying keep pushing through it will get better. YES YES its an old chestnut and I hate people saying that. I cant see it if I'm in that negative circle.Once I'm out I can see the many tiny steps I took to get better.
1. ring or webchat with BB
2. talk honestly with your psych if she thinks you are making progress
3. talk about the meds with your doc
4. write a gratefulness list every day to help to focus on the positives/
You are important
we care
keep living
