Sadness. Depression.

I don't feel hunger, thirst, love. I sleep for 10-12 hours at least. I go out alone. Been going out like this since 7 months. People have often mentioned that I'm in depression and there's a lot of sadness within me even though I smile in front of them. I don't enjoy my hobbies anymore. I keep myself busy with work during weekdays but weekends become difficult. Few weeks ago I reached out to my friends for help but I was abandoned. I often think about suicide. The family's the only thing keeping me here. I don't see an escape.

I’m going thru the same thing. Family think it’s a spiritual things and anytime I say I don’t fell good they start acting funny. I don’t even get hungry anymore I just eat what is there

Feel your pain, ansh12

I been feeling a similar pain for a long time now (more than 10 years). Ive been getting much support from those around me, but not from within. Haven’t given up yet , but feel burned out now. Thought retirement would help, but it has not. What next? Just want to sleep the day away.

Talk to your doctor, please, tell him how you are feeling, ask for help or a referral to a psychiatrist, then take it from there.

We are not doctors here, but I think you need one, fairly urgently.

Cheers, Midori

Try the Wim Hof method free on you tube. Get the 3 round guided breathing exercises do it before you get out of bed. And then do it before meals if you want more. Then after you shower rinse 5 minutes in cool water as cool as you can do. Deep relaxed breathing in the cold. Lower the temperature little bit each week. 45 minutes of daily cardio exercise too. Probably see a dr because those thoughts are not ok to keep around.

See your doctor about a Psych evaluation, Something is going on, and needs investigating.

Thank you for all the suggestions!

I have not yet consulted any doctor. I don't know why but I don't want to. Everyday feels difficult than the previous one. Some days are bad, some are worse. Sometimes I wake up all cranky etc. Nothing excites me. Not even hobbies. People are just leaving from my life one after another which is making me sink more. Recently, I begged my best friend to stay in my life but she didn't even after knowing that I'm not fine! I haven't met anyone since months. I try to but people don't anymore and now even I've gone cold. I hardly talks to anyone on calls too.
