I Feel My Depression Coming Back

I'm not suicidal this time, but it feels like a pain growing larger inside me. I'm not satisfied. I don't finish much, as I'm constantly starting over. I feel like my entire life has been start-restart-never finish. I feel like there are various personalities inside me. One is always unsatisfied with the actions of the previous, so I start over and do it differently. I don't know how to get out of this cycle.

I feel this cycle too and have just decided to go with the flow. When sadness comes I try to take really good care of myself and keep my son and I laughing, but some days I do wish for the pain to end whatever means necessary because no one is coming to help. I have no family and my son relies solely on me. So I’m doing my best, but it’s definitely not good enough. And when it comes to me, I get nothing but chores, bills and helping people through their emotional problems. Creatively it’s difficult to start and complete things. I wish I knew what to do. My latest attempt is to just feel and explore these lows. Find out what’s eating away at me. People tell me to accept what I can’t control, forget about what I can’t have, but i can’t accept everyone is dead and nobody loves my son or I after the amazing shit we’ve done. Sometimes I do want to die, even though I’ll never leave my son and life is beautiful, I still sometimes wish it was over. Just because I’m so fkn tired of being on the roller coaster. I wish you all the best on your journey. I hate giving advice, but rather give people my confidence that they will find their own way to balance. Or just listen in case they need to talk 🖤

@RebelFox Thank you for that! That means a lot. I've dreamed about living a free life, just going wherever and enjoying nature and life. Maybe I will one day. I hope so. If you need to talk, I'm right here.
