Back at uni in my room, back in a **** mood again, oh joy...

hope you feel better soon!


---------------

god I feel like **** right now, sleep is still awful, have to have more ear drops as well now, plus just really fed up with life tbh, was in a really bad place before I slept, only thing that stopped me from doing something stupid was talking to the girl I like on facebook for a bit (not about stuff obviously, just chatting, but distracted me enough to be able to sleep after anyway)

feel like I have barely slept as well (had about 6 hours I think) but not good sleep I don't think, feel so tired and drained, gonna get food or something I think, if I can even manage that

Sometimes conversations with people we care about are the only things that keep you hanging on, I know that all too well Hope you feel better soon, definitely try and get some food in you if you can

I'm alright, I'm kind of bored which for me is often a slippery slope into feeling **** but I'm just going to read my book and maybe watch a film.

Also still haven't told my parents about my depression. I don't know how. I can hide it, I'm hiding it fine at the moment but that won't be able to last that long. I probably should tell them but everytime an opportunity has come up I've bottled it.

yeah, distractions are good!

fair enough, can be hard to tell people I know, hopefully the right time for you will come though

Hopefully I'll work out how to do it. I know I should, it's just quite hard.

that's okay, isn't ever easy to tell people, especially if they care about you, but hopefully they will be supportive so is worth doing

I couldn't tell my parents so what I did was hand my mum a letter from my psychiatrist to GP which explained everything. Then I just sat back and waiting for the inevitable questions. But sure as hell beat telling her myself.

Yeah, I might wait until after my counselling appointment when maybe my head will be clearer about what's actually happening to me.

Just feel like I deserve to be put in my place. Hating being alive right now, in a dark and twisty place contemplating evil things.

don't be silly! you are a good person, sucks that you feel bad atm, but it will pass, I know trust me, you definitely don't want to do anything other than find a way through! if you need to talk, then please post/PM/whatever you need to do!

I've tried this a few times. It's kind of worked until I sober up then I feel worse. Also my problem is that often getting drunk just exacerbates whatever mood I'm in at the time so I'd feel very very wary about getting drunk when feeling particularly low.

True, you're right. But, personally, in my circumstances where I've come close to 's', getting very drunk seems to have effected a subtle change. Of course, it may well be just a case of it masking and covering up serious issues but as long as it'll keep me from the edge until the academic year finishes, then I'll have to continue.

Okay dear ima just reply as Helenia is currently offline. In these circumstances a mod (usually a supermod or admin) would say something like:

Would you consider speaking to the Samaritans or Nightline? Their details can be found here: http://www.samaritans.org/ and here: http://nightline.ac.uk/nightlines. They both offer a range of different listening services so if you don't feel able to speak to them on the phone, you can email them and they will usually respond within a few hours, or Nightline even offer a 1:1 instant messaging listening service.

They are the people best equipped to help you in terms of listening to you and helping you feel supported and able to cope with the stress you're under, so please get in touch with them hun. On the other hand, if you PM either Helenia or fleur de lis (http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/member.php?u=54773) they are able to have the Samaritans call you with your permission if you feel unable to call them. Good luck, hope you're okay and that it works out for you.

Just to note though that the moderators who make these referrals are specifically Samaritans trained moderators. It can't be any moderator/supermod/admin, they must have been trained to deal with those posts/threads, and it's not always a supermod or admin, it is often area moderators who are trained as well.
