Feeling terrible

Feeling really really really miserable

Hello @cripps. I just found this after seeing your comment on a welcome and introduction post, so I hope you don't mind my responding. I'm a volunteer here and may be missing for bits of this evening but I will be here as much as I can, probably until quite late tonight. Can you talk to me? Can you tell me why you feel so bad just now? I promise I will listen and I will reply to you as quickly as I can.
Please talk to me, cripps.
Here and listening, sorry for your pain,
Richard

Hi Richard, just can’t seem to get myself out of this very low mood, I’ve been out and about with my so called friends again today but for some reason and not for the first time i always feel like I’m on my own. Is it me feeling paranoid or my depression but i sit there in silence and looking in.

Hi @cripps sorry your not feeling well . Scope is here to listen there are lots of people who want to help you. Please don't be shy I know it's hard to talk sometimes when your feeling so low. But Richard and myself will do all we can to help even if it's just to listen. There is always a way Cripps , these feelings won't last forever. 

cripps

I understand what you’re saying but these feelings I’m having do seem to last for every , they always do and i can’t find anybody to talk to about them, i want to be happy but what can i do? I don’t have any friends and i don’t have any family, i live on my own, I’m wheelchair bound and I hate where i live .

Hi @cripps. I'm going to have to depart for a little while but I will be back as soon as I can be. In the meantime can you tell us more? I do understand 'aloneness', believe me. Why do you think of these people as 'so-called friends'? Not that you may not have very good reason, I'm just interested to know.
And perhaps you would tell us about your condition and how it affects you?
Take care. Back soon,
Richard

Thank you it’s nice to have you around

Dear Cripps, you do have friends. You went out with them just recently.  I bet they had no idea of how you were feeling. Maybe you could invite one or two of those friends around to share a pizza and a bottle of wine. It is very hard for people who have never had depression to understand what it feels like. That might be a good time to try and explain how it effects you.  Good luck. Xx

cripps

Yes it’s not a bad idea i just need to find someone to talk to and to be told to pull myself together.

Depression is a very bad friend to have

Hello again @cripps no one that's had depression would tell you to pull yourself together as they would know it doesn't work like that. Being lonely doesn't help either but now your here on scope and can talk to us. Are you seeing a doctor about your depression.?
