Am I lost?
Hi everyone,
Well I don't what's happening with me, sometimes I think I am depressed or maybe stressed but I don't know exactly what's wrong with me, I just know that I mentally *** tired, my mood swings from happy to sad switch so fast, it would be fine if it happens rarely but I am facing this constantly, it's become like more than 6 months , I didn't felt like I am living a normal life, my mind don't shut up at all, I can't even focus because of that stupid negative thoughts, I know that I am loved and cared by everyone and I have everything that I need, I have a very good friends( online), good family, and a good space to study, I have every materials I need still I just can't do that one thing studying , I have unhealthy routine, I don't exercise , I don't go out for a walk, well I can't hang out with friends cause I don't have any offline friends, I don't drink water properly, I don't care about my health at all, I literally know my mistakes and I know everything that only I can change myself, it's my life, that no one cares whether I fail or pass, but still I can't change myself, I have my exams in 1 month, all these days I was postponed them next day and it came to 1 month still I am like, no I can't today I will do tomorrow, seriously?what's wrong my exams are in 1 month, I cleaned my room today and started studying, I took 45 min to solve 1 problem, cause I not completely focused on study my mind is crazy, it can't even focus while studying, and then I just didn't continued to study, I just stopped, actually I like studying alone but I don't know why whenever I sit to study, I get this feeling of loneliness and I just can't focus at all, well after I stopped studying, I got call from a friend, she was like I completed this and this I was like woah, actually I used study and work harder than her, and she was literally so behind from me( I am not disrespecting her), I just felt like I am a loser, what happened to me, everyone are studying except me, acting like depressed and all day, ughh no matter how much I know what my mistakes are and all, I just can't able focus on studies and can't able to live normally like others do, I don't feel like I am living, my everday passes with stress, Overthinking, loneliness feeling, I may get happy for a moment felt like I can start now, again same *** happens, I just don't know what to do 🙂
I'm really sorry to hear about the difficulties you've been facing. It seems like things have been tough and it's totally understandable that you're feeling mentally drained. Dealing with constant mood swings and negative thoughts can be really overwhelming, but please know that you're not alone. Many people go through similar struggles.
@Jem7cups,
I told my best friend , he gave some tips and all, suggested me to go to therapy, for that I need to tell my parents, it's really difficult to them and I have exams in 15days, I just don't know what to do, and I was talking to friend of mine and while talking I felt like telling her, so, I did she didn't take it seriously, it's okay , but she even laughed, I felt so sad that day, I just need to try to help myself, and yeah Thanku so much for your kind words❤❤
Hi,
I think for me the feeling of being overwhelmed is the hardest to deal with. I hear you! I recently started taking action and steps to help myself and it is a very hard thing to do but very necessary. I’m sorry your friend didn’t understand that you were reaching out for support sometimes people don’t have the capacity in the moment to realize what is needed. Try another friend or see if your school has a counselor you can see. Support is huge! I know I do feel myself that my family and friends don’t understand because I’ve always been the helper never the one that needed help. It can feel isolating and that’s so easy to do when we feel like we are a bother. But as we have been there for others it’s good others be there for us. For studying maybe make a plan each day if the important things you need to do. Rather than looking at the big picture take it in smaller sections to help not feel overwhelmed. Lastly, talking to your doctor can be helpful too in case you need additional support. I wish you well! Keep on!

I hear you. Often I feel the same way as you and then I just don't know what to do. But you get this, I believe in you!
