I feel that all the humanity has been sucked out of me. I am crippled with anxiety and depression. I am scared of everyone and everything. I used to function normally , have jobs , no I'm a loser who is scared to even leave the house, why the fuck am I even here ?

i'm sorry. sounds like you are going through a lot. I don't have an answer to your question. it's good you are seeking help. maybe your counsellor or doctor can help you work through this. take your mind of it for awhile if you can, even for an hour watching something you like, give it some time.

Please don't say your a loser. Your just really going through some hard times, but your not a loser. Please try and find some hope in the words we all write you and know we're here for you

I'm currently on a waiting list for help. I'm sorry I'm just full of negative emotions

We use to hide from our emotions. Once you stop using it’s an overflow of pent up emotion.

When I quit using I think I cried for a month straight. At meetings....Yup, it was humiliating.

You might want to see a family doctor. Its a place to start.

Hello,
I am so sorry that you are going through such a difficult time. I cannot imagine the crisis that you are facing. I guess the closest I have been was in 2015 when I had been suffering from excruciating pain for three years. Couldn't sleep at night, couldn't eat. Got to the point where I just wanted to end it all. It was the darkest time in my life and I questioned so many things.
What saved my life was turning to God, reading the Bible, praying and fasting. I know it sounds archaic, but it really worked for me. One of my favorite verses is,
"Listen to my words,
LORD, consider my lament.
Hear my cry for help,
my king and my God,
for to you I pray.
In the morning, LORD, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly."
Psalm 5: 1-3
Please know that I will pray for you,
God Bless you,
Kevin
