Tired

I’m tired of a lot of things, of doing this thing called life alone. I chose not to have children after living a traumatic childhood till I was 13 and placed in stare care. I never experienced love from my family or my past boyfriends. I have spent my entire life feeling never good enough for people, in the last fifteen years after I left a relationship I have felt more distant then ever. I worked as much as possible so I was either tired and didn’t think about the loneliness. I lot a few contracts and started baking, giving the food away when I could afford to do so. I’ve rented for the last 15 years and have had to do one bad move which was very hard on me giving away a beautiful harden and accessories to people I thought were friends but users in the end as I only live 30kns away and they choose to have nothing to do with me. I only work one day now and am struggling with filling in time, I do exercise every day for an hour, but there’s still over 13 hours to fill in. As i live in Victoria near NSW I’m stuck because of the coronavirus in Melbourne and not allowed out of my state though my area hadn’t had any cases for 90 days.

Tired of making friends to be let down by then, one life friend said speak to the psychologist, so I speak once every 6 weeks. I really don’t see much point continuing my life, there’s only so much one can take and I feel like ending my life especially iff I cannot go to Queensland in December for Christmas which I have not had Christmas for over 35 years with anyone. I do not take drugs or drink alcohol, just extremely overtired of my living.

Thanks NSW for doing as you please once again, now the business will go broke on the border as we have been in a permit since Monday 21 and you shouldn’t have been travelling in our state but yet you got through the police checkpoint and infected people in Melbourne...different rules for city people.......should be wearing masks everywhere...why can’t you stay at home or move to the border and see the damage you have done...

hey Delectable

u sound upset about what is happening with the news

i'm sorry for all that is happening now

this time of year is awfully hard for so many. Have you been getting out and doing some walks

Today was very overcast here which was a bit depressing

But I'm hoping it will get nice again soon. Sending you wishes for a beautiful new year

Thank you Sleepy, I am angry and upset with people who just think they can do what they want and get away with it, obviously it’s corrupt because we have been checked by police on a major road....I just don’t know why people have to be so self centred and refuse to stay at home, it’s not the end of the works spending Christmas alone...I won’t be able to go to my specialist now because of their stupidity.....and a lot of business will go broke, we cannot survive all the consequences of Melbourne and Sydney all the time, the punishment should be harder then $1000 fines as most won’t pay and they will get away with it,

Hi D

I don't follow the news so I'm really sorry I don't know the situation

Some ppl don't believe in the rules or have some sort of idealogical opposition to it - but I think here on this forum I've seen us all as ppl who have had MH issues be generally sensitive -

The virus is certainly a hard one to understand and some ppl have very strong opinions or entitlement as if it doesn't apply to them

I live on the border of the two badly affected states of Australia and every time there’s an outbreak we cope it big time here. Now it’s from a place 6 hours away...all because they want to go in the state they don’t live in. All those old people I can no longer help as I cannot afford to go in quarantine for 2 weeks every time I go there, it’s absolutely ridiculous that we are getting hardest hit when we don’t even have any coronavirus here. Yesterday there was a truck fire and only 1 way to cross, with one lane with freeway traffic and locals and all the people trying to get home....there is no way this would even happen or be considered in the city. It’s an utter waste of money Sydney spent on the fireworks, and they don’t even wear lasts up there because oh no we don’t need to as we can do what we like and stuff the rest of the regional people between here and Melbourne. I cannot live like this, I was getting better and started reading but know my head is a mess again , we may be sensitive but people should come here and live here when we are paying the consequences for their idiocy...

Hey D

i just wanted to gently point out that the ppl on this thread who are reading these posts are likely to be more on ur side and feeling similar... and not those you speak of who disregard the rules.
I can understand how painful it is to have your livelihood so limited. These times are sure tough

Yeah well I don’t think people get how hard it is to live like this, it’s going to stay all of summer....I really don’t know why anyone in Victoria would even want to go to Sydney when it’s bad up there, the freeway is back to 4 hours crossing....to travel 5kms... this would never happen in a capital city... please just holiday in your own state. Most people can talk to family on the phone or via the net, so you miss out seeing them one year, big deal....there are people that don’t even have a family.

I am one such person so i do know about that quite well

I think for me it's a little bit hard to hear as I am writing here as someone who is Victorian herself and also who tries to keep lockdowns, and that doesn't mean I don't have empathy for the vulnerable or the lonely - I am one too.
I'm just suggesting that we acknowledge that not all ppl are the same and some of us are trying hard

the lockdowns in melbourne were awful - we had a curfew at 8pm, then lifted til 9pm and couldn't travel more than 5k ...I am still getting over it

I was in a MH hospital for a part of it where we were not allowed visitors and could not hold therapy groups

I pray the lockdowns will end and we will be okay... I hope u can soon return to your work safely and am so sorry it has affected you so heavily. Keep hope - we are doing well and hopefully on the way out.
