Feels like your kinda drifting through not really feeling? What’s making you be so disconnected from yourself and others?

You’ve been feeling this way for awhile now that I know about...have you been able to take some steps to help you deal with this problem either professionally or personally? Keep fighting...

I often feel this way. There are a lot of factors that contribute to the feeling. I have OCD and Depression for some time and have become more and more aware of the signs of when they are coming on.

It really is a chemical/brain thing for the most part, I am discovering. I would say in (lucid times) “I can’t believe that I would have even thought or been so down,” yet in down times I have no hope and feel like it will never change. It is seriously like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

The good news is I now can see it coming and take action and if it hits I have workable coping skills to get me out of these moods fast than I used to in the past.

I hope some of this helps. I am so glad you are posting. Please keep it up!
