How do i get out of this?

[L1994]

Every day I have off work i sit and cry and hate my self and my life. I can't seem to feel the motivation or get the energy to get up and do something about it. No1 seems to listen to me when I say I hate my life and I don't want to live this way anymore . I live on my own just me and my 8 year old daughter. My partner i have been with for 13 years but he doesn't live with us as its complicated with his family and him being of a different culture. That's part of my problem. I feel not good enough and like why should I bother who cares. Just don't know whag to do no more if every day I have off work is like this.

It is hard. I feel the same way. I tell people that I work in hell and live there too. Try to do something, no matter how small, that makes you happy. It may sound corny but I play computer games when I can and that keeps my mind distracted enough to relieve some of the stress.

Thank you for your reply. Yes I definitely know what you mean by working and living in hell. I feel like i can't find a balance in life but badly need to. I did get my cleaning done today had cries half way through. I guess life just gets on top of us. Might have to try that one with the computer games. I do have bad ocd anxiety you name it. If I don't clean I feel like it's the end of the world then that puts me in to a bad depression. I definitely need distraction for sure.

I understand where you are coming from. You work all week for your days off and then you just spend those days depressed and anxious. It's a tough cycle. I don't know the answer but just try to keep yourself distracted from your thoughts and do your best to take care of yourself. You have support here!

Thank you broken1971. It is really a tough cycle to get out of. It's not as easy as to say just get up and do something is it. It's finding that motivation and energy that the depression sucks right out of you. Thank you so much
