Feeling desperate to make this stop

Hi there, this is my first post which is really scary. Anyway I am not good feeling really depressed and anxious . I have tried everything psychiatrists, psychologists. Mental health nurses. Medication , I even spent 4 weeks in mental hospital to have tms which obviously didn’t work . Anyway feeling like life isn’t worth living . I feel like I have had enough of this battle called life . No matter what I try nothing works . I couldn’t be more of a joke and a waste of space really what’s the point I am never going it get better . Do people ever truly get better?

Sorry dearest Lilly.

Substance abuse is very difficult. Unfortuantly not much can be done until he wants to.
If he is suicidal, is there a way you can get him help that way?

Thoughts with you dear friend. Take care of yourself xx

Dear Lilly

How are you coping today? It must be so hard watching your son struggle with substance abuse. Are there rehab facilities where you are? Would he be open to attending something like that?

I hope and pray he comes to his senses and reaches out for help. You are so brave to be dealing with all of this.

Thoughts are with you xox

Just wondering how you and your sons are doing.

Did you manage to go back and see the psychologist or GP again?

Keep your spirits up Lilly and take good care of yourself xox

Dear Jojo,

Sorry I haven’t posted . Things aren’t that great emotionally . It’s really hard to talk about it.

I haven’t been back to the psychologist or the gp there is a long waiting time .

Honestly there isn’t any point anyway .

Hope you have a nice day .

Thank you dear kind friend .

Dear Lilly

Thank you for your lovely post. I am sorry things are so hard for you emotionally. You have such a lot on your plate it is little wonder.

It’s okay if you find it too hard to share at the moment as I understand if you don’t always post straight away.

Try and find ways to distract yourself or go for a walk whenever you can. Also do something nice for yourself when you have one of your calmer days such as visiting the animals 🦘

Wishing you well xox

Dear Lilly

Just popping in to say hello. Have you had any more encounters with koala bears? Hope you can do something nice for yourself this weekend.

I’m going to the movies tomorrow to see Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Hopefully it’s better than The Fast and the Furious! Will let you know how it goes.

Are you back at work now?

Hope you are not so overwhelmed and are able to get some sleep.

Thoughts are with you xox

Dear Lilly

Well the movie was dreadful- so bad I actually thought about leaving part way through! Wayne wasn’t impressed either as I picked it.

I usually check to see what the movie is about or watch the trailer, but didn’t this time. Won’t make that mistake again lol!

So how are things with you? What did you get up to? Hope your son has settled down a bit.

Take care Lilly xox

Dear Jojo,

I hope you had a lovely day and really enjoyed the movie .

I cant really talk about work or anything . It’s not good.

I am feeling extremely overwhelmed and agitated. My depression is consuming me . I am not getting any sleep . I have a psychologist appointment on Thursday . Really what’s the point anyway . I can’t be fixed . Nothing can be fixed . They can’t take away how much I detest myself and what I have become .

I haven’t seen anymore koala’s that was my first in 10 years living in my home but I could really do with some .

Thank you dear friend for everything .
