Completely overwhelmed

Just feeling so depressed . I would say my life is hard to live hour by hour minute by minute. I’ve tried so hard to make myself better . I feel like I have no future . My body aches with depression . I’ve got a job but it’s hell , I’m looking for a new one . It’s like the story never changes.

I feel so much pressure with people at work telling me how hopeless it is for me as I’m single and on a low wage .

I live with my parents and I’m on a low wage .

I just want to be neutral , not suffering . I’m so lonely .no matter what I try or do I end up lonely . I want to give up , but I dnt know what that means for me . I’ve spent months house bound with depression , no one helping me .

My minds in a dark place , the problem is I’ve tried so many things to pull myself out of my loneliness and it nearly always fails .

I put on a brave face but I feel crushed.

Hi Kat reading your Post made me feel sad for you: I can sense that you are in pain: I’m sorry that you are going through such a tough time:

The thing is that when we are Depressed everything in our lives can become unbearable and a stress: We feel unable to cope with things and it’s a vicious cycle:

Don’t listen to the negative people at work who feel it’s “ awful or the end of the world” to be single: There is nothing wrong with being single and it’s often much better than being in a bad marriage or bad relationship:

You seem to hate your job and you feel that you are not valued there: see your job as Temporary as you can look for another Job. It might be worth while to try and retrain for a job that you like; so really there is no need to feel hopeless. You are still young and can change all these things that are making you unhappy :

A breakup can knock your confidence but it doesn’t mean that you won’t have another relationship; give yourself time and see what you really want in a boyfriend, don’t be in a rush.

You can have a good life if you make some changes when you feel able; making one positive change will help you to see a good future for yourself :

I hope some of this Post will help you: as I know from experience myself that when we feel Depressed we see our future as bleak. Whereas that is The Depression affecting our thinking. Be kind to yourself and Remember that you are not alone and can get support here to help you through this bad patch .

May I ask, have you discussed your depression with your GP yet, this it the first destination you should go to. Make a list of your Depression/Anxiety problems, this will help you get the most out of your appointment.

Sometimes when we feel unsettled with our Job this can make us become dissatisfied and become unable to perform our duties and eventually those around us pick up on our feelings and that can possibly cause you problems with those around you. You are looking for a new job although with Depression you need help now, your GP may be able to help, control your illness

Let us know how you get on
