Feel horrible all the time and I see no end in sight

[Meyer_Gdmnx]

I just feel god awful. I can’t even really explain it other than just feeling generally down all the time physically just hit right but unable to pin point any specific symptoms other than my back feels tight and a bit painful. Feel like not doing anything and that things seem mostly pointless which worries me that I’m not worried about feeling and thinking this way that’s an alarming thing to think/feel I also am unable to engage with much of any emotions. I never enjoy things particularly or get much excitement these are hallmarks of depression but I have no idea how to combat it

I am experiencing the same symptoms for years, my back and my neck and part of my back head hurt with a tingling sensation. I take muscle relaxers, they help but I having a hard time living with my negative thoughts. I take day by day 🌺

I'm new here. I feel the same way most of the time. I think we shut everything down in our head because feeling upset and sad is sooooo exhausting.

Hi again. Just know that these are the hard times. We can rest our feeling s a little until we can handle trying again. I don't know if that helps you but I'm working with this idea so I don't continue to punish myself for feeling bad.

I don't read anything about counciling? You might want to try that?

Hello Meyer_Gdmnx ,

I can understand how you are feeling right now and want you to know that you are not alone. The feeling of not interested in things anymore with downward feeling most times is a hard place to be. I can understand how it hard to shake it off. Am glad you are here sharing because its one step into finding a way out of this. There might be variety of physical and emotional reasons for feeling this way, and it might be something as simple as poor sleeping habits or low energy level. Try some exercises and walks. When you are down, your mind likes to take over with negative thoughts, worry, and over-thinking and you will have to train your mind to slow down, stay positive and motivated. Some other ways that help is counselling so in case you need to talk to someone about this you can call 855-382-5433 for counseling consultation. Am also here whenever you need to chat, sending hugs and prayers your way.

Hello Meyer_Gdmnx

Does sound a lot like depression. Has this come on recently? Has anything happened that you can think of that might have triggered this? Have you seen your doctor? You might get some help from antidepressants/counselling. I also recommend reading Dr Claire Weeks’ excellent books. I would suggest seeing your doctor and getting some advice. I hope you start feeling better soon. This site is a great place to start connecting. 😊
