Overwhelming feeling
I noticed the past few months Ive been having this overwhelming feeling of needing to cry (almost to a physical extent) but not being able to and feeling numb all at the same time. Its driving me bonkers,does anyone else experience this feeling of being emotional but (this is the best way I can describe it) almost detached at the same time?
When I feel overwhelmed by negative emotions it's like something gets switched off inside, and then I'm just tired and drained. Maybe your body/mind is forcing you to detach so it can rest and recharge till you have the strength again to cope.
YES. Thats the feeling exactly,its like my mind and body cant handle the stress and (in a way) begins to shut down. I often feel drained to the point of needing to sleep,even though at times Ive just waken up. Its tough. Im sorry youre experiencing the same feeling,well get through this one day though! @15Fairlight
@reliableBranch1949Just came here and wanting to say that I feel like crying, but I know I will be okay 🌻 and it's okay. I shouldn't feel like I'm not helping, I did what I could and I think I can't save everybody. Someone said I did good and I believe them, it's just this lump in my throat won't go away. I feel too connected to someone who seeks my help and I do hope they will get better. And I will get better too. 🌺🌼 Maybe a good cry would help 🦋
