I can't handle anything....I don't want to handle anything....everything in my life is eff'ed up...and it isn't going to get any better anytime soon...and I just don't know what to do anymore...

I have no money... no food.... no meds....I don't want to go to work...I can't go to work...cause I never know how I am going to feel from one day to the next....I can't even take my meds cause I don't the money to get them!!!!...

and I just don't know what to do!!!!

GOD...I am so tired of the life I've been living for the last year and a half...why? ... why can't I just go back to being the person I was before I got sick and went to the doctor...

I am the same way, but I realize what the problem is and am trying to change.
The problem is you got comfortable doing nothing and it is hard to get back on the horse after not doing anything for so long. Well that is my problem. I still care for my father and aunt but that is usually only 3 to 4 hours a day. I am wasting valuable time and I am going to do something about it

u need to force your self into doing things, I work....... most people would say I shouldn't but I force myself extrememly hard day in and day out to have that bit of normality. sure it makes me stressed, it makes me "ill" but I figure id be ill anyway so may aswell try get on with "life" anyway. it takes me a huge amount of force and I hate every second of it but its something I have got to do. drew4lost has it correct, realise what the problem is and try change it. the more negavitivty you have the more negative you will feel. tell yourself you know what I can do this, I can atleast give it a try. my problem is before work I dread having to go, I dread it while im there, I dread it for hours after but pay day comes around and I suddenly think, actually it wasn't THAT bad, another month I got through, im waffling and ive lost my point now, damn mental issues. I know its hard but try start saying I CAN ratjer than I cant.x
