Feeling Depressed

Hi guys,

I'm not feeling great today. I don't know why, yesterday I went out and had a good day with my family. We went bowling and for food. My arm is killing me but it was worth it. But now I feel so down, like everything is rubbish, I feel so tired but I'm at my partners house so I cant sleep. I'm currently in he's room while he plays video games with his brother in a different room, he brought me food up and I was nearly in tears. I don't know what's wrong with me 😭

The tiredness does this to us Georgiew94 , I love watching tennis I support Andy & jamie in Davis Cup, I have travelled to Queens in London and Emirates Arena in Glasgow BUT I do suffer for a few days after, over pacing myself but life cant go on hold we must enjoy some of life really.

Morning Hun,

I'm really sorry that you are feeling like that, I think we all have days like that sometimes. As you may have seen me previously commenting I have felt very emotional all week as I have been ill and cried on Wednesday (I think) as Carl wanted to wear a pair of shorts I hadn't washed and I felt like a complete failure. It can be so hard to pull yourself up out of these feelings, but you have been so brave posting about it on this forum. The best advice I can give you is to speak to someone you feel close to, explain how you feel so you aren't alone and try and focus on things that distract you or lift you up - for me I Facetime my parents or I try and get lost in a book. All sounds simple but it does really work. Like Hidden said pacing is really important but I can understand that sometimes it feels worth the pain to feel 'normal' for a day xxx

Aww, sorry you're feeling rubbish today. It sounds like you had a great day out and bowling. I think that we inadvertently sometimes over-do it. Maybe you're feeling down due to the pain and possibly due to the "high" you were on yesterday. We have to embrace the good days and perhaps rest and "ride the storm" on the bad one's. I hope this makes sense? I hope you feel a bit better soon. x

If I have pushed myself too far I can often feel very low the next day, out of sorts lacking in energy and no real interest in things. I think in one way our body and minds shuts down for s it in order to recover. Hopefully you will feel better tomorrow.x

I'm hoping tomorrow is a better day for you. Don't be afraid to be honest with your partner with how you are feeling it's ok not to be ok. When you are physically exhausted and tired it can get you down and become a vicious circle to break. Take care :)
