26

#1
Hi everyone, I know I've been told I can come here whenever I need to, but I still feel bad about coming, haha, like I'm going to bother you all or that you might think I'm never okay.

I recently turned 26, which is a serious age, isn't it?

How am I supposed to act? I still feel like a child.
When something happens, I think an adult should take responsibility, but I'm an adult too, and I can't accept it.

I feel like I'm not very mature, that I like childish things, and even though I'm okay with that sometimes, when I see other people my age being so mature, I feel like a baby.
Waking up every day is difficult; I feel very tired and sleepy. I don't know if it's the antidepressants. I have an appointment on Monday, and I'll see if they can change them, but it's frustrating to live like this. I feel like I've reached my limit. I don't know if I'm explaining myself well. I feel like I've already done everything I can, and I can't seem to get better because I'm broken. My brain is damaged, and there's no going back. I'll never be the same as before.

This month, I had a wonderful experience at a concert. That day, I was so happy and forgot all the bad things. I felt grateful to be alive, but that feeling ended, and I'm back to my depressed self. I don't know how to get better.
Sometimes I think I don't want to, but when I feel really bad, I feel like I do want to get better, but I don't know how. It's a very draining internal struggle, and many times I just want to give up. Even if something goes wrong, I think about dying, and the future terrifies me.

I don't like what I do. I'm not proud of it, but I'm afraid to change it. I hate this stupid fear that paralyzes me, and above all, I hate myself so much. I wish I could run away from myself.

I think maybe I don't really want to die. I just want to stop being me, to end it all. Maybe if I could be someone else...

Talking about how you feel and what you have experienced is what SF is for. If we were bothered by things like this, we probably wouldn't read posts or post on SF at all.
or that you might think I'm never okay
On SF, you are allowed to be as ok or not ok as frequently as you actually are.
I feel like I've already done everything I can, and I can't seem to get better because I'm broken. My brain is damaged, and there's no going back. I'll never be the same as before
There may be some adjustments to your current treatments, or some different treatments that would give you better results. I can try to say more about this if you'd like, but it's also ok if you don't want that.
when I see other people my age being so mature, I feel like a baby
There's something wrong and something right with pretty much everyone. It's not fair to compare because other people have different circumstances and experiences. If you're trying to make the best out of what you've got, it's not reasonable for anyone to expect any more from you than that.
