REAL LIFE AND ME

I am trying to get out of a depression that seems to take over me now and then. It is such a exhausting feeling that sometimes all I want to do is sleep. I don't get tired physically but mentally I just drain myself with all the worrying I do. I get really down on myself about the kind of work I do and that I don't have a trade, labouring isn't good enough for me now. I worry about money and how at my age I have nothing to show for it. I live from paycheck to paycheck and I hate it.
I can't quite put my finger on it but I am my worst enemy when it comes to putting myself down.
God I'm so tired right now, so tired of thinking and worrying. I took this week off of work only to sit at home and do nothing and all I want to do is sleep. What a great way of using my holidays.
I am going to start tomorrow and get up early. I am going to tell myself that I am a good person and I contribute to this world in some way. I am going to snap out of this and start to function properly again. I want to feel better again.
I can do it, wish me luck

You are a great person! You have accomplished something in your life that is more challenging then anyone could hope to achieve!
Try not to be too down on yourself! You said you "don't have anything to show for it" You have your freedom and your life! You have every day to do whatever you want to!
Believe in yourself as you tell us to do! You are a great person!

I agree, you are an amazingly strong and resilient man. You fought your way back from the edge of the cliff and you take the time to help others out by writing down your experiences. You are a courageous man, who has a lot to offer the world. I know, you've helped me through rough spots with your compassionate ear.
