Depression Community - How do you actually feel today?
I feel lonely, even with my favorite people around
I can't control my pretending, this idea which people see me as sickness me, I don't know how to get anyone to see me and notice I'm not ok without feeling like I'm manipulating with my situation , I tell anyone who's close to me I self harm to feel ok or practice my suicide whenever I'm home alone . Anything I say feels like I'm manipulative but being quite really pushes my self harm because it like if I can't talk about it then Its just all in my head and I'm just looking for attention
I literally hate my life right now. My depression pushed a very close and beloved friend of mine away...Drinking to take the pain away but all I wanna do right now is sob and take my own life.
I felt fine til tonight and started cutting again
My name is Tim. I'm 31 divorcing again. I think I'm what ever is past depressed, I don't know what to call it hopeless maybe. Dead inside maybe I don't know but I'm here I'm trying to hold on. There just isn't anything to grab
I am a person who others see as has it all, married for 27 years but there is no romance, three gorgeous brillant children all who don't appreciate me and I am fixing to be unemployed again. I don't like myself, I feel huge, unloved and so sad all the time. And more and more I am noticing no one cares. Would anyone even notice or care if I were gone...something to contimplate...

HI I hope you are feeling better. I can relate. People care. I care. If you are still with 7 cups I welcome you to message me.
I feel empty like therebis nothing inside
I know that exact feeling. I wish it would just go away. @coffeehog
Today I think is a good day, I haven't really spoken to anyone today and I had to face my dad (not something I'd do voluntarily) but I feel good, nothing good has happened, in fact I've been on my own in this house not talking to anyone at all for hours but I have hope today that things will get better.. Last night wasn't a good night for me and that brought me down a bit today. But then I thought 'no today will not be like yesterday' and I pushed through every bad thought with a good one and now it's time for bed and I'll go with a smile. Thank you 7 cups I really appreciate how much you've helped. If anyone is feeling down I know its clique to say 'it gets better' but honestly bit by bit it does, focus on the thing that makes you happy, it can be as simple as your favourite TV show, binge watch that till you're fangirling your socks off!! One good day is worth fighting through 100 bad days I promise 💜
Frankly speaking, I'm extremely annoyed at my family. They always take me for granted and whenever I bring up a complain they think I'm being too sensitive. Nothing I do is ever good enough for them and I'm honestly tired of living with them all the time. They always criticize me and if I ever do anything right then they take credit. The fact that they refuse to try understand me is why I do believe I have a lot of my issues and can't rely on them for emotional needs
I don't feel great today. I'm failing school. I might fail the whole year and I'm just not sure what to do anymore. I want to disappear.
