Depression Community - How do you actually feel today?
Tired.
Sick and tired
A bit anxious like i woke up knowing i wasn't going to have a good day
Numb
l don't know how I am feeling today. It is early, but it is a long day already. I tried doing school, but I am getting distracted by my deepest, innermost thoughts. I can't concentrate, I can't breathe. It's strange. It's an empty feeling, yet, I feel so full of emotions. I just don't know what to call it, except for its name... Depression.
Scared, anxious, terrified. Scared myself into thinking that I had a disease that can't be cured, talked it out with my friend and it's like I know I don't have it, I got tested and all not too long ago but I'm just freaking myself out all over again. It just frustrates me and I hate myself for overthinking every single thing and creating a problem when there wasn't one in the first place. Right now I just want to sleep for a really long time and just forget about all my responsibilities.
I can feel like that too. Its so frustrating when you create problems by over-thinking things and get stressed out but then have no one to blame but yourself because the problems only exist in your mind!
I often feel like i just want to sleep for a couple of years to empty my brain of this nonsense!
Exactly! I've tried to consciously stop it but it only makes overthinking worse :(
I feel vacant. The lights are on but there's nobody home. I'm just here, going through the motions.
Its like being on autopilot, you do everything your meant to but aren't really a part of it all
Exactly, I just wish I could 'snap out of it' or wave a magic wand... as I'm sure we all probably do.
how do I feel today? Like an ignored piece of dung. Not heard. Not cared about, invisible and irrelevant. I am of use when I am helping people. Otherwise I am not even noticed or heard, Or cared about
I am sorry you feel that way :( It's definitely not a good feeling.
I feel somewhat okay, but slightly anxious and overwhelmed as well.
I'm not sure if it's depression..but I feel emotionally tired. Maybe it's because of the current situation I am in but I feel like leaving class so I can go home and take a sleeping pill so I can stop thinking. I just want to sleep and stay under my covers, close all the current, and turn off all the lights. I feel that's the only way I can stop overthinking everything...I just want to sleep all day.
