Having Trouble Coping

Sorry, not sure this is the right place, but needed somewhere to vent.

I'm having trouble coping. My whole life seems to be mucked up and I feel like I have no where to turn.

My Dad has dementia, which is agonizing to watch. My Mum and I have had a huge argument over nothing, but yet the priniciple seems hard to let go. My boyfriend and I are constantly fighting - even today just asking him to come over and comfort me after the fight with my Mum and he starts a new fight with me too.

Work is a mess. I no longer feel capable to doing my job and I've confused work mates as friends which has lead to disaster after disaster.

I don't really feel as if I have any friends I can talk to. Those I have tried to, it feels like I'm boring them with my issues.

I've tried to seek counselling but that's failed too, often making me feel worse coming out than going in.

I'm just so tired. I don't know how much longer I can cope. I just want to curl up into a ball and forget the world ever existed.

You've come to the right place. Everyone goes through times in their lives when they are having trouble coping and aren't sure where to turn. The only real advice I've got for you is to take some time for yourself and relax. Even if it's only 10 min or so to just put on some soft music and do some deep breathing exercises.
