Hello,

I am depressed and its fucking depressing. Will it ever end? Doesn't feel like it to be honest. I am really tired and I just want someone to talk to and I worry I am annoying my friends and family by bringing it up so I have stopped. I think I annoy everyone every minute of everyday. It is the one trait my brain shouts over and over and I believe it. I am fucking annoying and I really wish I wasn't. I need to stop drinking but I can't and that scares me. I am very scared. About everything to be honest as I also have anxiety. This sounds like a really sad story I don't even know why I am writing this but I think it might be helping. If someone reads this hi I hope you are okay and if you are not, great join the club. At least there are two of us.

    Hey welcome!

    Glad youre reaching out for support here <3
    that all sounds really hard & overwhelming. You may find more support over in health & wellbeing area. We are here to listen & youre not alone <3
    “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

    Hi! Welcome to The Mix :)

    I'm really sorry you're going through hard times right now. Please know that you are probably not annoying your friends and family -- I understand how you feel, depression and anxiety tends to trick us into thinking these kinds of things. I'm certain your loved ones love you and want to support you in getting better.

    I hope you find the help you need in order to heal. Everyone here is happy to listen to you whenever you are ready.  <3

    Hey, welcome! It's lovely to have you here.

    That sounds awful for you, I'm sorry. You do sound really depressed. It's a really hopeless feeling to feel it won't end, and it's understandable it scares you that you can't stop drinking.

    I'm sure you're not annoying at all, by bringing this up to your friends and family or in general x

    As Shaunie said, do feel free to make a thread in Health & Wellbeing when you want to talk more. You're in the right place and I really hope we can listen and help <3
