I give up

I don’t want to be here anymore. I feel so alone I don’t want to talk I just want everything to stop. I feel like I’m not good enough and I’m so trapped in this constant state of feeling like I’m just one big problem

You are not alone and you are good enough. Just because you don’t feel like it in this moment, does NOT mean it’s the truth. If you give up today, you won’t be here to see how things will soon change for the better. Please hang in there. We all love you and are here to support you in your times of need.

You are not alone🌻 Many of us have been where you are. And some are currently feeling just as low. It takes some really dark moments to get to the next step. We all have breakdowns, meltdowns, anxiety attacks, were all here because were battling something. I believe you posted this so you can feel less alone and feel a little relief. This is a great outlet. You are okay💜 and tomorrow is a new day. Breathe. Try and find a distraction from the pain you feel inside. Try to find something that comforts you. Anything. Call someone. You are so much stronger than you realize. We are capable of many things... its just hard to see it in these moments like what your going through right now. You are not a problem. You are you. And if people are making you feel like you dont deserve to be here, then shame on them. Because you deserve more than this. With talking and seeking help you may be on to brighter days.

Depression is a liar and is certainly not interested in caring for you. I'm confident that you have a cheer squad who love you for who you are, not what you do or achieve. If that doesn't feel like a truth, that's what depression does. There is plenty of help available and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy through counselling seems to be chief among them. Physical exercise is another one. I joined the Couch to 5k (C25K) group on this Health Unlocked site which is great for getting you moving. Download some podcasts and take a personal coach with you on your runs.

I have a dear friend who took her own life thinking that there was nothing to live for but she left a gigantic grieving community. In depression don't trust your despairing thoughts. Start with a doctor and search out professional help. This way it will get better.

This condition is debilitating, sounds like you need another medication if not already on one..

But most of all go to church when there is no service , go inside and just pray, talk to god and light a candle....if there is a st.judes church around your area make a promise to light a candle every time once a week , particularly on a monday wich is mass for st judes. But if not any church is powerful. St judes is a very strong for the weak and sick.....I hope you find peace and comfort soon....🙏✌

Don't think like that. We all feel those negative thinking bit should be avoided carefully. You can always message any of us privately and discuss your feelings. Just hang around and you will feel better.

You are absolutely not alone. I understand how you feel, I was in the same situation late last year. But I realized that the depression and anxiety is all in the head. It didn’t define me and it does not define you. You are strong, stronger than you think. Everything is going to be okay, I promise you. One thing that I take comfort in is that trouble and pain does not last forever. It never does. Matthew 11:28-30 states, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

Some ways that have helped me is to write in a journal, listen to some music, talk to a friend or watch a funny movie with a friend. Also, try this app called 7cups. You can talk toy a person in a chat and they respond pretty quickly. You can also participate in a live chat room as well. It has helped me tremendously, just being able to talk to someone. Therapy is helpful as well. A specialist can give you some advice on depression, anxiety other things.

It will pass. we can ride it out together💛

Hi roygbi,

Would it be okay if I ask what things are troubling you or is anyone putting you down? Oftentimes, depression and these feelings can be caused by our situation or the people around us. Please do not be offended, many people here have similar situations but we can only offer something if there are more specific details, but mention only what you are comfortable sharing. I know that you are tired and you do not want to talk but this is a safe place and explaining your situation is the first step to move forward.

Hi, roygbi,

I'm worried about you. You've not posted in four days and I'm really hoping that you're okay. I learnt something wise a while ago via a radio interview with a woman who had been going through tough times. Her counsellor said that harming yourself doesn't stop the pain, it just transfers it to the community (esp your community). It would be great if you can map out a plan (get any assistance you need) to tackle the depression step by step. Then you just follow the programme and tick off your achievements as you go. Take care. Hugs.

You deserve life

You deserve happiness

You deserve to feel better

You will get there and I know it’s so hard to get through a day when you don’t want to be here, but just take it one day at a time.

I don’t know if this helps or not, but what I do is I have a reminder on my phone which stays constantly on my lock screen which says “just make it through today :)”. It’s just a reminder that tomorrow might be better, it might not be but it’s always worth finding out if it is.

Depression sucks, don’t let it get the better of you ❤️

You ARE good enough.

You are Precious and Loved.
