Had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand the 21st feb,got retrenched the 28th feb,blew all my m0ney by March 16th, unemployed and penniless already,my dad passed on a year ago and n0w i'm the breadless breadwinner who can't get outta bed. I managed 2 drag my arse 2 the labour dpt 2 get my unemployment m0ney sorted (sarcastic ho0ray) and i'm n0t bawling my eyes out or anything like that,but I just CAN'T,D0N'T want to ANYTHING... I make excuses to n0t see my friends (xcludn bf,he gets a visit) i have "attempted" to clean my ro0m (pathetic),an fo0d aint so inviting either (can't aff0rd 2 lose any,just got up 2 a healthy 45kg). All i do is lie here and sm0ke,can't even jobhunt cos my hands still busted. Arrgh i d0nt even kn0w why i'm c0mplaining,other pe0ple have real problems!

(((Trippin))) - thinking of you. You are going through A LOT. Please take care. You are sounding down my friend. Look after yourself and don't do anything stupid. You have your daughter and mom, friends and us.
Give yourself some time to feel more motivated and then start putting the pieces back together.

Your situation is way more painful than anything I can relate to. All I can say is I feel for you and pray for you.
I sometimes feel like hiding from all my friends too (I make it sound like I have loads of friends)
I actually tried your trick of overdosing today - only I took 11 coffees in 1 go - it did absolutely nothing to me. Zip. I hope you don't try anything more serious.
Hold on tight.
