Hi,

I'm struggling a lot with my mental health right now. I feel like I'm getting no support every time I try to reach out.
My depression and anxiety are taking over to the point I don't want to get out of bed. I feel worthless, pointless and question why I even bother trying.

I've let so many people down and failed so much in life, I've lost so many friends because of this. Right now, I have nobody. I feel like I'm fighting alone and I can't anymore. There's nobody to give me a helping hand, nobody to hold me when I need it, nobody to just talk to.

I'm going so far backwards. I won't eat, I sleep all the time. I feel at a lose with myself.
I just want support but nobody cares enough. It all just gets taken away.

    Hey green tea welome to the mix x

    First of all I'm really sorry to hear you're struggling.

    You said when you reach out you don't get anything back in terms of support. 

    I was wondering how you've tried to reach out so far?  Have you talked to a family member? Your GP?  Or online service like Kooth? 

    Sorry to hear you feel at a loss but people do care and everyone in this community does. Have you tried going to your GP? And seeing if there's any help they can give? 

    If you want to talk about it there's plenty of places where you can get support such as: kooths online counselling, and the various options here: https://www.themix.org.uk/get-support/speak-to-our-team

    There's also support chat that will be running tomorrow and circle that runs every Tuesday if you want more detailed support.

    Best wishes xo

    Im sorry youre feeling like this. Who are you trying to seek support to? Everyones deserving of support and i know you said it makes you feel youre fighting alone but i hope maybe we can help if wanna tell us more about things like how youve let people down and that may ease some of the darkness somewhat. It helps me anyway and when realise a lot of people are also feeling similar and makes me feel that lil less lonely. And we all care. 

    take care of yourself
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
