Feeling numb...

I've been kinda going through this phase where everything I've once loved, hobbies and such has almost no meaning anymore. It's like I feel I have so much to do, and yet I sit and do none of it and feel this boredom and emptiness.

It's come to the point where most nights, (mainly when this feeling comes) is meaningless. Like what's the point?

reading doesn't take me on adventures anymore, writing has become a chore insted of something I had very much enjoyed doing, I dropped drawing all together, I no longer watch anime or play videogames...

I feel as if I've fallen out of love with everything I once loved and I feel at some point in my life I've come to completely lose myself.

and no matter what I do I can't seem to get away from this shell of a person I've become.

I've fallen into this routine where everyday is the same, and its not so easy to just switch it up, especially when you have two kids.

I've sat many nights alone and just felt so heavy and alone and just done and I'm just so tired of this feeling and tired of not knowing how to fix me.

I agree. Sounds like depression to me too. I know these feelings well. You can pull out of this with help. See your doctor and get a good therapist. This is a great place to get support from others to help you along.

Are you under a doctor’s care? May be time for a medication adjustment. Or sometimes just talking it out helps. I hope you are feeling better soon. I’ve just recently started to have moments of joy after being in a state of survival for far too long. It will get better. 😊

I'm not. I don't have the insurance nor money for a dr or therapist. I've looked into stuff that maybe able to help, but haven't come upon anything as of yet.

I hope to feel better soon too, its a terrible feeling, although I'm happy to hear you are doing better! ♡

And thank you for replying.

Hello, and thank you for responding. I would go see a doctor, and I've felt the need for therapy for a long while, but sadly for me, I don't have any insurance nor the money to actually take that step.

I've tried to take a step back and reach out, but most people don't care when it's outside of their own problems as I've come to learn, when I did try reaching out.

Although, I've never actually tried a health support group, so maybe this can help a bit, and thank you for the warm welcome! 🤍
