Feeling okay I guess😕

I don’t really know what to say. I can’t say I feel on top of the world and I can’t say I feel super sad. I kind of feel a little empty. I’ve been doing all the things I love and don’t get me wrong it works but I just don’t know how to take the heart break in and just let it go. I think about it and I don’t shut it out I let it happen and it makes me sad close to tears and then after that I’m just left feeling like okay so did I face it or not? I don’t know what I am doing🙄

Hi, what you described sounds familiar and my opinion is that I don’t think any of us know exactly what we are doing so you are not alone having that feeling. To me if you are “Not happy but you’re not sad” to quote the Smiths, then maybe feeling just OK does not feel right. I know for myself my anxiety and depression can get really intense but once in a while I am not anxious and not really worried and I get this haunting feeling that something is off!

Yeah, I basically feel a bit off like something is just not clicking in the way I need.

Unfortunately for myself I just try to accept that’s how I am. It doesn’t make me feel better but it helps me move on although it’s not easy. Sometimes I am so upset that I have this broken compass, that I have a hard time making decisions and that I often feel like something is wrong, but I try to be grateful for the perspective it gives me. Because I suffer mentally I can think deeper about the world I live in and listen to other people who feel like I do.

At least you sense that you could be feeling better and that’s a good thing. Perhaps you just need to engage with something that makes you click like a hobby or sport. I don’t have the answers but I sympathize with what you are going through and hope things get better soon.

It’s definitely a process and I’m sorry you’re feeling this way, but what you’re feeling is normal. After enough emotional release, your mind will calm itself for a while. I get this often when I deal with past pain. You just feel neutral, in that “in between” stage where you’re almost numb because you’ve spent so much time battling your pain. I personally welcome that period of calm because it tells me I’m slowly letting go of what’s hurting me, and in time you’ll notice how much less it affects you. You’re already on the right track though by allowing yourself to deal with your thoughts openly. You will heal in time.
