Struggling

I need help, am feeling so down today, nothing makes me happy anymore and am tired of everything. Why is life so difficult?

who knows? I just keep on going thinking it will get better although I am not sure I can for much longer. I believe that all that suffering and struggle are part of something bigger. maybe good times are just waiting for you. after rain always comes sun. of course maybe there will be storms but sun will definitely come. try finding something that makes you fulfilled and happy. i found some of those things and honestly they are probably reason I am still alive today. you never know what tomorrow holds.

i have a supportive family and boyfriend but i feel like they are getting tired of me. Today is just so hard for me, i wish there is a way of releasing this overwhelming feeling.

I am so sorry you are feeling this way today. I believe strongly that your family and your boyfriend are not getting tired of you. They are there for you to lean on. Have you tried doing some deep breathing to try to release some stress? I have to make myself do that when I feel overwhelmed. Have you talked with a doctor or a counselor? They may have some insight about your feelings that may change your outlook. Thank you for being brave and posting. We are here for you!

Sounds like me. I used to want to be around people when I was in funk. But now I want to stew in my emotions alone. I feel like the person on the depression drug commercials that holds a paper happy face on a stivk in front of them to look happy on the outside. I am having a hard time doing my job and getting motivated. I am so tired of icky selfish people. I miss my childhood and my parents. Guess Im not doing you much good. But you arent alone and neither am I. Knowing you are there, in a similar boat, you help me. Maybe knowing that will help you. Take care.
