Depression Community - How do you actually feel today?
like I am not in control of my life anymore
I know what I need to do but I'm scared by the thought of it.
I want to feel happy and not feel guilty about it
It's okay, @inneedofafriend1962. You feel overwhelmed and scared about taking any action, so you avoid doing anything. I can understand that you just want to cope with your stress. It's so difficult and you just want to rest and to ease all of your pain.
It's good that you recognize your feeling. It's good that you know what you have to do. We are here for you, lovely. We will support you. It is scary and hard, but you can do it.
*hugs*
Thank-you @spes for your thoughtful words it's good to know people are their
I was doing fine, I switched schools and now I'm much happier. The problem is some days I will just get sad, out of nowhere, I can't control my emotions and I feel as if everyone wants me to explode.
@musicalnerd193, I'm glad to hear that your new school makes you happy. I think it was a brave and grate choice for you. I'm proud of you, lovely ^^
Have you tried this 7 Cup test? Maybe it will help you recognize your feelings a bit better.
Sending hugs!
Numb, useless, unmotivated, unattractive, and lonely.
So sorry to hear that, @AquaLake. I care for you. We are all here to listen to you. We won't leave you. We will support you. Please, accept these kittens as a token of my affection:
Lots of love!
Ignored and used. I really don't like the way things are going so far. I have never felt so stressed and hurt in my life ._.
I'm so sorry to hear that, @LovePom. It must be really hard for you, feeling under so much pressure. You're just trying to do everything what is possible to cope with your feelings. I want to hug you and to ease your suffering a bit. You're lovely and have the cutest avatar which made me smile ^^ I care for you.
It seems awful now. And I believe you that it is. Try to remember everything shall eventually pass, even these dark times. Keep holding on, love. We are here with you. We won't let you go.
*hugs*
My parents treat me like shit and don't understand my mental health issues. It's so distressing and I can't stand living under the same roof as them :(
I'm so sorry to hear that, @lavenderFarm4174. It's hard when your closed don't understand your struggles. But I'm glad that you've reached out to us. We know how hard it is for you to keep getting through every day. We understand how deep can be the despair, how dark can be the longest night of our lives, without sleep, without hope. We will listen to your heartaches.
Sending you lots of hugs, because you're worth every one of them!
Thank you @Spes, that's helped me feel a bit better :)

I'm extremely frustrated with myself.
Is there something you can do to ease your frustration, @yzzil?
@Spec. I start everyday with high hopes. I just keep making the same type of mistake at work. I know it's part of my concussion syndrome but that doesn't make me feel any better. 😏
I'm a pansexual, asexual, atheist (my parents are Christian and against all that). I don't feel like my friends are really my friends. School is stressing me out. I feel fat, useless, annoying, ugly. I don't like anything about myself. How am I feeling? Like I want to die.
Abracondromeda23, you must feel lonely not receiving support from your family. It hurts when our closed ones don't want to even try to understand us. Instead they push us away because of their own fears and insecurities. And on top of that stress in school.. It must be difficult for you, darling.
Sending you all my love and strength to help you get through next days. I hope life will be kinder to you, because you don't deserve this pain, lovely. We are here for you, if you want to talk.
Useless. I stay at home taking care of the animals and trying to find a job while everyone else is out making something of themselves.
Lovely @considerateChick, I don't think you are useless at all. You may feel like that, but you are taking care of animals. It's wonderful, and noble of you to help those who are weaker. Would you mind asking me what animals are you taking care of?
Sending hugs!
Hopeless, Empty...
I found out the horrible truth that is happening to my cousin...he's a musician, and a comic book author. He recently started up his solo band a year ago and has one album out so far. Everything seemed great. But every time he went on tour he would get suicidal and depressed. Ten he finally revealed to me why. His record label has completely taken advantage of him, changed who he is, his style...he can't be himself. Music has recently become a phobia to him due to the stress. He is giving up. And his strong with and creative mind and voice kept me going all these years. I feel like that if he gives up...what's the point? He wants to quit but the label has his insurance, helps pay his bills, and pays a quarter of his rent and he gets free transportation through them. If he quits he has nothing. I am about to throw away my art, burn my guitar, smash my keyboard and break all my CDs because I have lost hope in art itself. It has failed both me and my cousin. I can't do it. I don't want to be in his position. I give up. I'm done. I am so close to suicide. They have destroyed all my hope....
