Depression Community - How do you actually feel today?
Today I feel quite numb.
Yesterday was pretty rough..and my night didn't end too well.
I go back to school tomorrow...usually I am pretty excited to go...just to see my friends. But even that's not enough to make me want go back. Do I miss seeing them? Of course..but the stressful school atmosphere put a damper on it.
I just know I need to get through these last 3 semesters at school successfully..
@lovingPine3496, those moments of transitions make me numb, too. But I'm proud that you've already one term behind you - that's a great achievement for anybody who struggles on the daily basis with their mood. Congrats, lovely!
I wish you all the best for tomorrow. Let us know how it went for you. Hugs!
Angry. I've been like this for the past couple of months. Realised my ex who I was with for 7 years is going out with now a ex friend. Which they're now living with each other. They've only been going out for 6 months. Couldn't shift the feeling of what I've done wrong.
@Strangetransformations, I'm sorry that you feel confused and lonely. It must be hard for you, knowing about your ex's new situation. I'm glad that you've reached out to us, though.
*hugs*
I don't know if you are already familiar with it, but there is a whole forum for relationship support in our community. You are not alone, lovely. Wishing you all the best!
Angry and cheated. My parents offered to help me with tuition for a program to teach abroad, but so far, they haven't done anything with it. They're lying to me, cheating me out of an opportunity just so I can continue to help morons for little more than a thank you.
I have no money and the job opportunities in my town suck, so I can't get enough money to move.
@creativeMelon1653, I'm sorry that you don't receive support from them. It must be hard for you having no prospect for funding. Have you consider looking for scholarships for the studies abroad? I'm also a student and I know that there is a lot of opportunities for young people with an ambition for international education.
All the best!
I already graduated, so that's kind of not going to happen. Besides, I need a few thousand dollars and the scholarships I saw only offered a few hundred. Plus, I don't think my grades were good enough and I probably never fit any other criteria.

@creativeMelon1653, there are many scholarships out there and they're not only targeted to the current students, so it's not impossible, but you have to dig around. I don't believe you won't fit any criteria, but to know that you have to try and give yourself a chance, lovely. Maybe research some more and gather numerous scholarships, so you can rely on more than just one funding. That way you might get closer to your sum.
Also, have you consider talking once again with your parents in a straightforward way on this subject? If you'll be honest with them and say how much these studies mean to you, maybe they will be more willing to cover a half or a quarter of the tuition?
Still got that low feeling in my stomach like I'm going to cry but I don't. Tired because I'm having trouble sleeping over the last few days. Heads still foggy and feeling a bit lonely too.
@enthusiasticStrawberries9783, I'm sorry to hear that, lovely. I hope today's evening you will sleep peacefully - you deserve it after such a long struggle.
If you want to talk, we are here for you - either in support rooms, 1-on-1 chats or in forums. Sending you my best hugs!
Today I feel kind of in between. Not super depressed, but not really happy either.
Sick too. Sick is not a fun one.
@wittyStrings7179, sometimes those "in between" moods are better than "an utter hopelessness", but then again, it's still far from "not fighting with your brain" mode. It's bittersweet, I guess.
I hope the feeling of sickness will pass soon. I agree that it's not fun at all.
All the best!
For the first time in a while, I actually felt alive. It was great even if it was just for a couple of minutes.
@thegymnast, I'm glad that you have this moment and that you were able to notice it - it sounds like a little step forward towards the recovery.
All the best, lovely!
I feel lonely. I have to go back to school and I'm completely terrified. I haven't slept because I'm so anxious. I can already tell it's going to be a horrible day and I just want to lie under my covers. I want to disappear.
Didn't mean for it to be that bold, I apologise!

i feel complete dread over having to go to school tomorrow. school makes me really stressed and i hate being surrounded by mindless teenagers and their gossip. school is very lonely and depressing and now its starting again.The other day, my mom told me that i should get friends to make me happy. People do not make me happy and i dont know how to have friends.
I think it will be a good place to start to cure myself. I don't have anyone to talk to closely, my friends ignore me. For the last 7 days (I am always very precise ;)) i am going through different moods and issues in life. Starting with the low self esteem, going through the self hate and feeling of loss of identity. I am feeling lonely, I don't have to many close relationships, and I am not good at making them. So today I think, will be another miserable day. Sorry for jumping throughout topics, but I think I have to many to cover. Thanks for being here guys!
