Confused and unsure
I am in a state of confusion and I am unsure what I am to do .
I started studying a diploma of nursing and I am doubting myself whether I can succeed and complete the 18months , what's made it worse is I saw my doctor today and she said that I am studying to much and really should find something that I am qualified to do.
It was like I went to get check up and ask about a referral to my psych again as I haven't seen her since September and I really could use a appt. but instead I come out more confused about what I am doing (study wise ) and no referral as she doesn't think I am eligible yet .
I feel so down and useless to the point that I not good at anything and that I am just making the wrong choices in life and the others around me don't believe that I am capable of doing the things I choose to do .
Sometimes I wonder why I am in this life .

Re: Confused and unsure
Tufflife, it sounds like you're really quite down on yourself at the moment, and reevaluating where you're at. Are you okay? What sort of supports do you have around you?

Re: Confused and unsure
I am feeling quiet down at the moment, life just doesn't seem to be giving me a break. I am thinking about where I am at but I just don't know and I don't have support , I doing this alone , I place a mask on everyday , cause no one understands or they say it's not that bad just get over it .

Re: Confused and unsure
I do trust my GP and I have known her for 13 yrs . She probably is looking out for me. With her help and my psych I managed to get thru the last 2 yrs of study , I had a big break down at Tafe and that's when I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety, I had support for them and was able to push thru with their help. I've had a few months off and was job hunting and was being knocked back at every corner . Then I really thought about returning to study so I did and I do doubt myself .
I am down on myself as I see myself as a failure in life & a burden to the world .
Thanks for your words

Re: Confused and unsure
It's really awful being knocked back for jobs and not knowing what direction you want to take. I've been through it myself. I'm sorry that you think you're a burden to the world. Maybe you could give Lifeline a call if you're feeling really low? The number is 13 11 14.
I'm wondering, are there any qualities in yourself that you like? What do you think your friends see in you?
