A roller coaster.

I'm a sophomore in college, and there is always a never-ending list of assignments and things that I "need" to get done. But when I get this depressed and overwhelmed, I can't focus on doing anything. None of it really matters, especially whenIcan barely even function..

I feel you. Sometimes I even end up crying.

I want someone to just know what's going on in my head because I don't really want to talk to anyone. It makes me feel like a burden. I really just want a doctor to give me pills so I can get threw high school so I can go to a good college from there I can probably do it myself. I feel so alone even though I have a lot of friends. I don't want to talk but I want someone to listen. I'm probably not making sense...

Stay strongsugar and take care. I'm here for you.

I want you to know that I'm always here if you need to talk, as are any other listeners my lovely! Remember that! Whenever you need us, there will always be somebody available for you! You matter to us, I care about you and I hope things only get better for you, sweetheart.

I'm only ever a message away, too - don't forget that.

Best wishes, El.

I feel depressed and completely hopeless, and one moment I feel like I'm getting better then I just feel worse :(

Today I was sad. I've been sad for two weeks. I've been trying to distract myself by binging on K-Drama's but once they are over they just leave me feeling more upset than I was before. I'm really lonely. And i'm sick of the saying that "you have to learn to be alone before you can be open to others"because I've been alone my whole life. I didn't know what I was missing you know? I had emotional chemistry with a guy about a year ago but he's much older and in a relationship now. Two weeks ago I dated a guy and finally understood physical chemistry. Ignorance is bliss my friends. I had no idea what I was missing out on in a relationship. But he moved away to start work. I'm really sick of bad timing. For once I want it to be perfect timing with someone I have emotional AND physical chemistry with. But I'm graduating college and moving to a whole new place in a couple months. There's no way I can start something now. But I want it now. I'm so tired of being alone. Interestingly enough,I'm still able to make a valid attempt at "pressing on" with my life. Trying to get things done like I always do when I'm on autopilot mode. But this time is weird, because the inner me, the one that feels all the pain, and turmoil, is for once not even attempting to mask itself from the world by way of the outer me, who is driven, and aloof, maybe a little over confidant. I'm a little glad that the two versions of me are meeting somewhere in the middle. I've been wanting to break that wall for a while, but the adjustment is rough, and my last quarter of school is suffering for it.

I was sad today. I'm still sad.

I don't know what to say, just I know what you are talking about. I know how it feels being alone, although I have been married for 20 something years, as I feel I have been alone my whole life. I'm 43, and I don't know how to start a conversation with the opposite sex...or even coworkers, for that matter. You are still young, plenty of time (I know, it is not a consolation). Things wil get better soon. :) I wish you the best.

Today - really this morning as it is 3:30 am - is starting out rough. I can't sleep and the darker thoughts are creeping in. I know dawn will come but when it's dark and only my thoughts with me, it's hard not to let myself get sucked in.
