I have never felt so sad in my life. Why do I feel this way?

Life can sometimes be too much or too little, feelings can build up over a long period of time and suddenly it might be difficult to keep them on arm-lengths distance anymore. Or sometimes something seemingly small might have happened which trigger a sad feeling you didn't know you could possess. Even though it can be scary and very painful try to go through the feeling. Try to accept to yourself and others that it is uncomfortable, but then try to live and see beauty even in the darkest moment. You are ok, if you have made mistakes, if you wish people would view you differently or if you just wished you could run and hide - That feeling is alright to have.. Doing your best IS good enough, so try your best, listen to others support and give yourself a break. Things take time to heal.

Only you know the answer to that. Ask yourself questions like 'Is there anything wrong?' 'Am I depressed?' 'Is there anything bad happening?', and think about things on why you could be sad, or down.

Hey, I'm sorry you feel so down. I don't know you so I can't give you any definitive answer, and besides, I'm not an expert, but I can offer a couple possibilities. Regardless of which one it is, it's important to keep in mind that the fact you're feeling sad isn't your fault. It's possible that you're suffering from some form of clinical depression. Clinical depression doesn't necessarily need a reason to come but if there was something traumatic in your life, that may have triggered an underlying depression of sorts. If there's something going on which is very stressful or making you nervous, that might also be getting at you. A last possibility is that if you started taking any new medications lately, it could be that you're suffering from a side effect of that. Regardless, if your sadness is short only for a short period of time, while it is very unpleasant, you shouldn't worry about it. However if it keeps going for a couple days and/or you have self-destructive thoughts you would probably want to see a professional.

What are you doing now that you didn't do in the past? One of those things might be causing you to be so sad.

A lot of things can trigger it, either circumstances in life or something within you. We can talk about it if you'd like. Remember that being sad makes us appreciate when life gets better!

There are several reasons you could feel sad. Lots of reasons actually. It's okay. It's okay to be sad. Remember that you can always talk to someone at 7 Cups of Tea. They can help you talk through the way you're feeling! You are not alone.

I'm very sorry to hear that you're feeling like you're at the lowest point of your life. I don't know your story, your life story or what causes your sadness, but I can say that if this is the lowest point, that means you have memories of higher points, an you know what they feel like. That's good, because that is like the light at the end of the tunnel, and a thing you can aspire to have and to reach towards. Why do you feel this way? Maybe you're going through a very tough time. But always remember that one day you will feel happy again :)

Feeling sad is inevitable, we're all subjected to it at least once in life. Actually, it's through feeling sad that we rejoice more effectively when the good moments come, and also build resilience to deal with following mishappenings. Feeling sad, as most - not to say all other feelings - ends up being a blessing, if you learn to harness its essence and make it a foot hold to jump to a higher state of being. It's all about perspectives, in the end.

there must be something that trigger you to feel sad, maybe event on past? or maybe because you have a problem with your family or friends?
