Depression Community - How do you actually feel today?
Hello, I'm new here and decided to reach out. I have recently experienced a significant loss and I'm struggling. I can hardly get out of bed. =[
It was a pretty good day for me actually. I went to the lake with friends but I was tired and didn't have enough energy to speak to people alot but my friends lifted my spirits even if it was just a little. I'm working on getting better I just hope it works out!
Anybody here who had a bad day I am sorry! I hope your days get better tomorrow! Remember there is always someone who cares even if you don't know it.
I just called in sick to work. I can't face it. I feel so guilty and stupid.
Hello everyone and welomg to this depression thread. Depression is a very hard thing to go through especially if it is clinical. It is always good to remember that all tough situations, feelings and events will pass away at some point in time. The struggle is real and its not easy but it can be manageable with a support system like this one. I hope all the best to the survivors of depression <3
@TheGoddessOfFlowers I feel disgusting. I feel like I'm the ugliest thing on Earth.
feeling trapped and as if I have no purpose. I lost interest in all the things I used to love and make me unique. I have no friends by choice because I feel useless to everyone around me. I can't express emotion properly so I just let it eat me alive. I berate myself on a constant basis and cannot take a compliment or others love at face value. I feel like all I do is make mistakes and beat myself up for them. I'm pushing the only few that care for me further and further away. I'm sinking to a whole new low.
I can't feel anything anymore. I'm just numb to everything but the pain I feel inside now. I've gotten used to it.
I feel like I'm dying slowly.
Mental torture
very anxious due to my drivers written test tomorrow. (I'm such an idiot that I didn't realise the test I had booked was just the driving test, and I can't do that without having first done the written test.)
I've been practicing parallel parking but have made a fair few mistakes and think I'm going to fail. It's making me beat myself up, feel horrible and hate myself.
@Jpmk talking down to yourself won't help you achieve your goals, but encouraging yourself will. A small kind word from you to yourself can go a long way :)
I was feeling absolutely helpless, like an eternal bubble of emptiness and sadness. I greatly came across a meditation video that allowed me to stop all of my suicidal thoughts for now. It just feels so great to relax and not feel sadness.
