Feel help: I’m so sad, so depressed. - Help.com

What do you think are the underlying problems which are the cause of these feelings?

I have an addiction that I am still fighting very hard to beat, a relaspe makes me feel like I’m throw back to the start, it has taken over my life.

i’m sorry you are struggling with addiction…you have succeeded before….don’t let the relapse win….start again.

do you have support and people…live people who support your sobriety and can help?

Thanks for your respose. My success even though they have mostly been short terms, did make me feel like I can be normal like everyone else at times. But time and again it seems like it will be a battle that I will never win, I feel more than helpless as if one day this will really take over me and destroy me.

I don’t have any support from people, my addiction is a secret and I cannot afford therapist or counciller.

Make an effort to pay more attention to nature, it’s so beautiful and complex that it’s difficult not to find joy in the details and textures. I also found that abstract art helped a lot, watercolors and pen are easiest, it’s easy to just start with a squiggle and add from there. If you mess up, you can just draw or paint over it, or you can tear/cut it up and make a collage.
Good luck, I hope you feel better. Go treat yourself to your favorite things, like your favorite dessert.

Thankyou meisabelep, I feel that I must stand up and keep on fighting its my only choice.
