It's killing me,it affects my day to day. I can't talk to people because honestly I don't understand how I feel but one thing is sure am not okay.i wish for a day of genuine happiness.

I know this feeling very well. I'm sorry you're having such a difficult time. Remember that nothing stays the same. You had happy days before and you will have them again, even if it doesn't feel that way right now. Our brains focus on the negatives and trick us into believing that when things are terrible, they will always be this way. This is not true. Therapy, medication, meditation, praying... all of these things can help. Just remember that these ups and downs are part of being human. Whether you actively work through things or not, one day you will wake up and these feelings will be a distant memory. Keep the faith.

Have you considered therapy where you could talk with someone who could help you come to understand how you feel? It really helps to have someone to talk to.

Has something happened since you were feeling okay Diggs_? I am sorry that you are feeling miserable. I honestly believe that if we can change the way we think we can change the way we feel. (David Burns, "Feeling Great")
