Im so sick of my mood going up & down all the time, I dont know how much more I can take. I can go from feeling ok to being suicidal in seconds, with no warning. I just realised its september tomorrow & summer has gone, with nothing for me to look forward to. Ive spent the whole summer crying, in fact all of spring & winter aswell. On new years day I was so glad 2010 was over as it was the year from hell, & yet so far this year has been even worse. My life is a mess, I fail at everything & I just let everyone walk all over me. I want to just give up, whats the point in being happy when I just become miserable again so quickly? My counsellor told me to think what Id say to a friend if they said the same things but Id honestly tell them theyd already wasted too much time crying & to sort themselves out so that really isnt helping.

Ive been thinking for weeks whether to go back to my doctor & increase my medication (Ive been on 20mg citalopram for approx 8 weeks) but Ive recently started a new job & I dont think theyd be very understanding if I need time off due to any side effects. Noone at work knows about my mental health issues so Ive been plastering on a happy face so far but I cant pretend for much longer :weep:

Im sorry for moaning, I know people are going through much worse than me but I just feel so fed up & dont know what to do x

Hi hun

It was triggered off when I split with my fiance of 6 years last summer, was in a lot of debt & had to move house. Ive since been in a few short term relationships, one of which lasted 6 months & was abusive, & my self esteem has taken a major battering each time! I absolutely hate myself right now which Im really struggling to cope with.

Im sorry that you feel the same way but its always good to know other people understand :hugs:
