Not sure I can get through this day

[kelsruby90]

I have been up most of the night with anxiety and bad dreams. Trying to get ready for work but I am so tired of feeling this way. Just hoping I can get through the day without crying or feeling so anxious. I hope all of us can.

I've already had a cry today....you can do this and have a cry too if you need it. Take care

I cry at work almost everyday. The first two hours are spent in tears hoping no one comes by and askes me what’s wrong. I know what your going through. Your allowed to cry. I promise. You will get through today.

I thought I was the only one.......I have cried at least once a day at work. Yesterday and today I was just too tired and anxious to even get there...........

I often feel like I am the only one too. Thank you. I had to call out last week to take care of myself. It is hard but I am learning that there is no shame in that. I feel better knowing I am not the only one.

I promise you are not alone. I am going through a devastating life change. My fiancé broke up with a month ago for three main reasons, and I didn’t know that those reasons were signs of textbook depression. Now I’m realizing that he isn’t who he said he was, he gave up on me, that’s mostly why I’m crying. I promise you, I can’t say it will get better, because even I feel like it isn’t. I loved him unconditionally, regardless of his flaws, and he gave up on me. But I will say this, you are NOT alone.

Depression makes relationships so difficult. I’m so sorry about what you are going through. I was hospitalized 6 years ago after a break up which was also caused by my depression. It is heartbreaking. The heartbreak will ease over time and I’m glad you are on here. It feels nice to hear everyone’s encouraging words.

I can't imagine having a relationship and haven't in like well.. Too long.... When I had I cried even more feeling even less of a person worth anything then... So I am afraid to even consider it.

How do I get past this... I really would like someone to spend time with and share a life with.

I am so sorry to hear about your recent break-up. It will get better as time goes on.......it's his loss.

Thank you. The day is going a bit better than my brain felt this morning. Have to keep fighting. I’m glad I am not the only one to feel so many emotions at work where sometimes it feels taboo to express anything.

[Aburk in reply to kelsruby90]

Yes I know, people just don’t understand. Yesterday I cried for 3 hours, today I cried for 2. Tomorrow I know I’m going to cry, I’m just hoping it won’t be as bad as these past few days. I’m here if you need anything. We all need to stick together and support each other.

I feel sooooo ashamed that I have missed work yesterday and today. I feel like such a failure .
