I am right there with you. I have been in a bad funk since yestrday and i cant shake it. Having to work the rest of the week seems a cross beteeen impossible and unbearable. I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow but i dont feel.like that is helping anymore. I had one who was wonderful.years ago but she retired. It just doesnt seem like anything is helping much. Not much to look forward to. All the fun things were in the past. I had so muvh fun younger. I wanna be a kid again. No expectation, no responsibilities, parents healthy and taking care of everything. I miss my parents being alive and healthy so.much.

I really relate to your post. Lately everything that made me happy bores me. I wake up with a heavy heart & depressed. I really miss my parents. And what’s worse, is I am the parent of four adult kids so I have to be the strong one and all I wanna do is be comforted myself. All the civil unrest in this country and everything going on I have never experienced this in my life. It’s hard to comprehend it’s hard to see an end to it all.

Hey, you are worth it. It just sucks that the world hasn't caught up and DOES NOT see mental illness like other illnesses....cancer etc...then we feel like the weird ones and think we're not normal. When I start beating myself up, I think, if I had cancer, would I do that to myself? No. I lost literally everything in my life too. I'll be *48 and don't know who I am. My parents - forget about them, they don't care. This is even after my therapist talked to them. I feel lonely. So I get it, I hear you. You are worthy. You are loved. Be gentle on yourself.

Thank you so much Rose for replying, and Caring. Yes, it is very hard on me. My family doesn't get it, like yours. I have literally no one to talk too. I have dealt with this all my adult life. I'm alone, I feel ugly and worthless. I just exist, go through the motions everyday and HOPE for the Best. Thanks again for replying and also caring. There isn't many people left in the world like you. Have a Great Day! 👼🙏

I'm glad I can help somewhat. I feel the same way with what's going on in the U.S. I am secluded as well, so I try little things each day, like just stepping out for 2 minutes to get sun or anything small. If I have to go out, like today. So I know where you're coming from. Some days I feel worthless, but deep inside I know I'm not. YOU ARE NOT WORTHY. YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT. When you feel down, can you think of one thing you're proud of or go out and notice something beautiful, like the sun? It seems ridiculous but helps. Something small, even if you step outside a little and look up at the sun or flowers etc.

Not what you're looking for?
