I’m at my wit’s end and feel like I’m about to break. I feel like a fraud, and my family – my wife and kids – seem to resent me and are constantly arguing with me. My job is awful; I hate it and my coworkers. Despite doing good work, my boss is completely oblivious and self-centered, so my efforts go unappreciated.
I’ve tried the resources on your site, but I feel like I’m too deep in this to be helped. How can I silence the constant negative self-talk that tells me I’m worthless? I feel alienated in my own home, like I don’t belong. It feels like it’s always been my wife’s home, not ours. No matter what I do to please her, it’s never enough. I’m never her equal, just an outsider in her space.
I’m lost and don’t know what to do. I’ve been having frequent suicidal thoughts. I know I won’t act on them, but this constant feeling of helplessness is crushing my self-confidence and making me apathetic about everything.
You’ve posted about it being okay to not be okay, but honestly, it doesn’t feel okay. I just want to be okay.
You are not alone. We hope you can find the support you need and find the resources that can help you through it. You’ve got this, be proactive and pragmatic. Each little step forward brings you closer to the goal. Do things that bring you joy. ❤️
