I feel so alone

I couldn’t work out how to name change.

I feel so terribly down. I can’t cope. Every morning I wake up and all the anxiety comes flooding in and I just want to sleep forever. It’s got worse every day for the past month or so. My kids fight and can’t cope. I had a meeting I couldn’t face so I didn’t go. I didn’t send Christmas cards to anyone I should have. Not even my mum. I need help. I just sat here and text DH to say how rubbish I was feeling and that I didn’t know how to get out of it and over an hour later he text..

‘If you go out next week I won’t text you abuse, I’d want you to have fun’

I literally don’t even have my husband. If I could just take a pill I would kill myself.

Aw darling you'll get through this - just remember that, things will get better. Are you receiving any treatment for anxiety or depression? Hugs

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.
