Hi

Was recommended to start my own thread so here it is. The gist of it is I am unhappy, unmotivated and don't enjoy or look forward to anything. Am always tired and hate my life!

Hi Purple,

Just wanted to say hi and see how you are. Although, your last message doesn’t sound very good.

I agree with Karen, we all have to keep trying... and some days are a lot tougher than others, but we keep fighting because we want a better life. There is so much undiscovered happiness we are all yet to experience, so we keep seeking it. You have to make the choice though 🙂

I hope you’ve had a nice weekend and have gotten to do something that you find enjoyable.

Keep on looking after yourself 🙂

Hi Purple,

I just wanted to check in and see how you’re doing today 🙂

I am worried about you and care about you.

Please take care.

Hello Purple,

I hope your doing ok, I'm sorry I haven't been posting much, but I'm having a rough few days,

I am very proud of you getting out of bed when you didn't want to. It's hard sometimes but it's necessary.

What have you been doing the last couple of days, I done an internet jigsaw, solitaire, it took me a couple of hours, then I done some research about depression and anxiety.

How is your little dog going, this hot weather makes it so hard for our fur buddies to cope and stay cool.

I will be back later I just wanted to check in on you, my thoughts are not clear atm..but I get concerned about you, so thought I would call in.

Kind thoughts only.

Grandy.

Hi Grandy

Still here just hate that feeling in the morning when there is nothing to get up for. I pretty much feel defeated. Not good, not good at all. What to do, what to do? I know you struggle but you sound so positive on these forums. I hope the afterlife is better than this one

Hello Purple,

Can you please do me a favour, I am starting to stress out as the last sentence on your previous post is causing me concern and you haven't answered my last 2 posts, could you please answer and let me know you are safe.

Kindness only,,

Hi Ggrand, we understand that you are worried about Purple lady.  Members are encouraged to respond only when they feel able to, and multiple messages can place undue pressure on those who are struggling.  It's the nature of an online, anonymous space like this that members will come and go and sometimes you won't have closure on how someone is doing.

We understand this can be upsetting, and we have a thread we'd recommend you look through where we discuss these issues:

Worried about other users, how are we all doing?

Hello Sophie,

Thank you, I'm really sorry if I have done anything wrong. I will read the thread.

Grandy.

Hi Grandy and Purple,

I just wanted to say hi to you both and see how you were doing. I’ve been having a really rough week, feeling very low and sad so haven’t really felt like posting too much as I don’t want to bring anyone else down my misery filled rabbit hole.

I really like talking with you both though, makes me feel like I have friends. I guess we all have our ups and downs, just gotta keep hoping and trying for things to be better.

Have a nice weekend 🙂
