Have you ever woke up not feeling worth a shit?

Question

I really hope depression is not trying to hit me. I’m such a happy goofy bubbly person but when I’m extremely stressed, its like it tries to creep up on me.  It did it for a month or two in 2017 while in a toxic relationship and working my first toxic job. It did it again while in another toxic relationship in 2019 for a month or two while working my current toxic job. I just can't handle double stress. My docs want me on medication for this upcoming operation but they dont eant to write an accomodation letter and I just dont feel right today.  Its so scary. I felt horrible yesterday not knowing how to help my clients. But i relieved stress by having a great conversation last night (well the little bit of night i had since i work til 10p). Today my hands are numb from the meds and I can hardly type for work. My voice is so shakey right now and I’m trying to hold in my cries while talking to my clients but tears keep falling.  I think I’m crying because I’m scared of the side effects of my operation or that i may even have to cancel the op, but also because I hate this job and want to quit bt know that last time it took months before i got interviews for another. Also, i’m like the breadwinner in the fam and although I can live comfortably without a job a while, I feel stress to keep helping my mom. I’m just hurting really bad right now  #FeelFreeToList #FeelFreeToCry

Time o u t

You tell depression to stay out of your shit

Okay so you got a couple bad days that's no reason to beat yourself up you haven't done anything wrong you haven't failed you just little bit tired little bit cranky you want me to read you a bedtime story
It's time to accept everything that has happened and say okay it happened I've learned from it time to regroup and start all over not a big deal

Because we all know the moment we start beating ourselves up we allowed depression moodiness get into our shit you know how hard it is to get something out of shit I mean I've never tried and I don't think I would ever want to try LOL cuz that's messy that's just not me but you do know what I mean
so if you took the day off today
Eat something healthy something fruity something sweet something good A little bit of rest and start your day all over again tomorrow

PS I will tell you a secret
And I have a feeling you already know it
If you're not going to let some man hold you back
You sure the fuck aren't going to let depression hold you back
Or hold you up
Go take a five-minute break sit on the toilet for a few minutes get rid of that shit because once you let it in it's hard to get it out well sometimes I guess and if you're having a hard time take a few of those shit removal pills
I don't know for fact but what I hear is if you take a few of those pills you splatter pressing shit all over the place depression runs from that shit all over the place LMAO
And then what you do is you replace all that shit with love with a smile and one first step for happiness kind not a step for mankind just one big step for you that would bring a smile that will start a new day and you'll be on it again you'll be back to New

Firstly, I wish you well with your upcoming operation.

Now, let's break this down in to smaller pieces.

Crying? Stop trying to keep it bottled up. Cry if you need to cry, there is no shame in that and nobody worth a light is going to think any less of you.

The operation is something beyond your control. You MUST go into it believing in your surgeon fully, and then allowing yourself to submit to it. It is out of your control so keep saying to yourself. "It must be done so I have to do my best to stop worrying about it."

Now then.. The job. You hate it, I get that. But please god when you are out the other side and recovering from the op, THEN you look into changing it. For now though? You carry on with it even though you hate it seeing as you are the breadwinner.

We all worry about our parents and we do what we can. You cannot do more just by worrying.. right? In fact, the more you worry and stress about it, the less you can do.

Bottom line is stress is counter productive, so try and calm yourself down whenever you can and focus on the changes you'll make after the op. ]

Good luck, and here's an old style yahoo hug to try and help calm you >:D<

Girl... LADY! What are you doing, choosing a job over your physical, emotional, and mental health? A job can replace you within a day. Your family and loved ones will never be able to find a replacement for you if you "croak." Please remember that and my heart ached as I read the physical pain and mental stress you were in.
I'm pissed the doctor refused to write an accommodation letter! What is their reason for this? Do they not know you have a job to maintain? As one who used to work in healthcare and no longer does due to how cynical having a close-up view of the personalities that embody it and provide care. I realized the patients who push back against their declines to accommodate their needs. Were the ones who received exactly what they want due to them advocating for themselves. so be afraid of giving them a nudge as their workload can cause them to be... apathetic when compassion is most needed.

I have definitely felt that way in all to eerily similar situations as you have presented. Mine prompted me to have a mental breakdown and forced unemployment to simply recoup. It was intense but through it I found yoga again, realigned my goals, and work principles of what i refuse to allow/disallow and have never felt more at peace and empowered that my life is in my hands.

All in all though I hope you will be alright and go through with the operation WITH THE ACCOMADATION LETTER IN HAND ! If said, operation will improve your health. Chin up and remember... close mouths dont get fed. much love

I usually feel like this two days before my period comes on. After that I'm back to normal. It's called menstrual depression

Other than that no because I'm in a cycle of constant change. I'm always planning for something new so I have things to always look forward to and occupied so I don't have the time to focus on that. I go to the gym, spa dates, plan on joining some new clubs, I like my job and have moved up. Plan to do one more round of schooling to give me a boost.

You: Maybe it's time for a change in life for you? Sometimes these things happen because the universe/god/ or whoever you believe in is telling you to want more for yourself and that it's time to do something different. You haven't been happy with this job for a while, where you live , and I know you want a relationship. So do you feel like it's time for change? Try going to the gym, joining some local groups to interact with people or to do something rewarding, look up new careers, go back to school, change your scenery?

Sorry you are going through a lot. You have a lot going on in your life and having heath problems is horrible. You have to address your health problems. Do what your doctor tells you to do. The faster you get it taken care of the faster you will get to the other side.

Not quite, but I have frequently woken up feeling like there is no point in getting out of the bed because it's just going to be another miserable meaningless day that will be exactly like the many previous ones.

alance99 · Answer

Never felt so low in life as you have described in your question, my advice would be to dont neglect your health and if the operation is necessary get it done ASAP so that you can recover fast and go back to your job.

I hope you get well soon and out of this mess 🙂

FriendlyDrugDealer · Answer

Yeah I have. I used to struggle with my depression because it’s apart of me and I didn’t know/ want to accept it. Now I’m better equipped to handle it whenever it does pop up but the frequency of these feelings are becoming less and less with time

AviatorTom · Answer

Not depressed, but having no energy... yes, a few times... in those cases, I notify my boss that I'm going to be in later than usual, once I get some energy

Toxic relationship you can leave easy because no point of relationship if it adds more toxicity instead of helping it. It's hard but always good to look for jobs even if you have one because something better can be there. I hate working too but it's worth being able to afford my apartment and my life is still happy because I get to flesh light with the hub in private every night after work.

Mayeb you should ask your psychiatrst for lamictal. Its a mood stabilizer but works great for depression and anxiety. It has this uplifting effect

desidoll · Answer

Yea, it happened a few times usually after napping. I don’t recall why but the instant sadness really got me lol.

kellytheman · Answer

I think some people do feel that once in a while in life it could just not be happy where they are in life at the current time but I think if you keep grinding and get that feel of achieving something you want you feel worthy.

I've woken up having to take a shit and woken up not giving a shit, but I can't remember waking up not feeling worth a shit. I'm always good for a shit or two.

Some days I feel so tired like, “(Yawns) I could've slept all day. Sometimes I wake up, go upstairs to pour myself some coffee, come back downstairs, drink my coffee and go back to sleep.

Just yesterday when i woke up i asked myself wouldn't it be great to be in an eternal sleep and feeling like all that im doing in this tiny world of mine is pointless

VarddaanKaushikk · Answer

Entire 2020 was like that for me. My girlfriend made me realise that it's all just a trick my mind was playing and I was worth more than what I thought of myself.

Phoenix98 · Answer

Yup I have, some days you just wake up in the wrong side of the bed.

MadBoy · Answer

Every damn day. I just stay in bed and sleep a little more until I absolutely need to get out of bed, then begrudgingly do so.

Valso · Answer

I felt that way the whole 48 days which were needed for me to get cured of Covid-19. At some point I thought I was really gonna die.

Jamie05rhs · Answer

That was wrong for your doctor not to write you the accommodation letter. I'm sorry they were unhelpful. That would make me mad.
