I just want to give up

[myheadisaterribleplace]

My life has no meaning anymore, no purpose, I fail at everything I do, and I am a burden to my family. I have had depression for as long as I can remember, and my life just feels so pointless. I have no friends (i wouldn't want to be my friend), and I am no longer able to work due to being dismissed due to ill health. I have no self-confidence, and I hate everything about myself. I'm so isolated and feel so alone. I realise I'm feeling sorry for myself, but I just needed somewhere to share how bad I feel.

I’m so sorry to hear you’re feeling so terrible about yourself and your life. I live with depression too, and anxiety, and it’s a real bitch. Remember that just because you think something doesn’t mean it’s true. Hang in there. You are not alone 💐

@myheadisaterribleplace how are you feeling today? Your username really struck a chord with me. I see everyone else going about their day normally and I can't even imagine sometimes how that is possible, they must have a very different head to me. Mine can be hell. I have been struggling on and off for years. I have found lots of support on here over the years and just writing down what is going on can be really helpful.

This is how I feel. I'm bullied at home. I posted an opinion on another thread and got piled on. It's a minor issue but feels like the last straw. It's a source of grief to me every morning when I wake up and realise that I am still alive.

@HelenaWaiting sorry to hear you are feeling like this. Things can and will get better.

Don’t let the idiots on that other thread upset you @HelenaWaiting. Some people on MN just get a kick out of being unpleasant.
Im sorry you are in such a bad place atm. Can you put a plan together to get away from your toxic home situation? I know that is really difficult but you might feel a bit better if you could get away from there.
Sending you best wishes xx
