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

We often feel this way because we have been tackling something stressful, and this ball of sadness hits after all of your other tactic systems fail. After you lose hope, and when you feel you can't get over this wave that keeps crashing under you. This feeling is like taking the breath away from you, and you just can't get enough air to get yourself back to the surface. The constant feeling of not being good enough. You feel this way because you don't know how else to react to whats making you, stressed, sad, hurt. Its depression. And it hits you harder than a boxer in competition. But you have to get back up, you need to fight to get that second breath of air. Until you are afloat above the ocean waters, or you hear the bells of victory.

There doesn't need to be an exact reason for feeling sad, or happy. It can be rough, and discouraging, I know, but what goes down must come up, that is how the universe goes. Someday, it will be better, if only a little, I can promise you that. At least you will never have to do today again, and I hope that that can be enough. I believe in you, and I know that it will get better for you. Try finding little things that bring you joy, like painting, or playing with a pet, or exercisimg, and you'll get through this.

If you have felt sad for more than 2 weeks, you may be suffering from depression. Depression is closely linked to negative thoughts about yourself, past experiences, and a lack of hope for the future. Opening up to someone about how you are feeling can be tough, especially when depression can make us feel like a burden on those around us. However, talking to someone can help you feel less depressed. 7 cups is full of ways to gain support. You can start a 1 to 1 chat or read through some self help guides to identify ways you can feel less depressed.

Of course, nobody can answer this question but you. You are in charge of your feelings and you know what kind of process has led you to feel this sad. Good news: you're on the right track to discover the truth. I can tell you this because you're asking yourself "why" and by doing this you'll be able to discover the shadiest parts of your own self. Being sad can be the result of previous actions (both done or received), can be the sign you've forced yourself into a career or a path that doesn't suit you, can be your chance to change.

You may be experiencing a depressive episode-please consider contacting a counselor or therapist. If you can, take a step back from daily life (explain to an employer or profsser(s) that an urgent personal matter has arisen and it is necessary to take some time off) and assess what may be causing this. A major source of depression is burn out. Burn out occurs when energy cost far exceeds its reward (for an example, an unsatisfactory job or spending a long time working hard in school without having reached graduation). Another major source is people and relationships. Consider who might be the source. If it's a partner, consider having a conversation with them to clear the air or seeing a couples counselor. If it's a family member or a coworker, try to distance yourself from them. And as always, remember to take time to take care of your mind and body by eating well, getting some fresh air (even just opening a window to release stagnant air) and setting aside time for things that make you happy.

Only you have the answers to why you are feeling sad. Have you taken a moment to breathe and evaluate what is happening around you to make you feel that type of emotion? Have you tried isolating the problem before you determine the why or a solution? Determining the why can always help alleviate some of these feelings. Once you find out the why the solution is easoer to determine how to fix the emotion as it can be several different causes with all different solutions. But sleep might fix the emotion of sadness as well. Have you tried these things yet?

There are times when we feel things and we can't pinpoint the reason why. It's not uncommon for us to feel sad out of nowhere. Based on my experience, I have found that these periods of melancholy and depression usually stem from weeks or months of having a monotonous lifestyle and not being able to take a step back and breathe. When our lives are just cycles of waking up, working, and sleeping, it's hard to feel any semblance of happiness. This sadness may also come from limited social interaction, a lack of meaningful relationships with others or a particular event that has caused extreme grief or regret.

Sometimes sadness stems from an situation, or sometimes it shows up suddenly with no cause. When sadness overwhelms me, I allow myself time to experience it. I allow myself to cry and listen to music. Or I paint to express myself. Sometimes it isn't always easy to pin point why you started to feel sad, something I like to do to help me figure it out is back track my thoughts. It usually goes like this: "why am i sad?' "i don't know, I don't feel like leaving my house" "why are you bottled up at home" "well because I feel like no one cares" "why do you feel like no one cares" "because everytime i make an effort to explain myself it never gets heard" SO, I pinpointed that I am sad because I feel misunderstood. It usually works for me, but sometimes it doesn't always work because I get really good at repressing my true feelings. When that becomes the case, I usually need someone I trust to give me an outsider perspective. I hope this helped.

Things may not be turning out the way you had hoped for. There are times when everyone feels sad or depressed. It's not your fault you feel that way. There must be something going on that's affecting you negatively. Find someone you can rely on and feel free to release all your stress and sadness. Sometimes, the best way to handle this situation is to talk to others. You'll soon get over this hard time and find yourself happy once again. It just takes time to overcome the feeling of sadness, especially if you're facing a very difficult situation.
