Feeling depressed and drowning.

[Marnille07]

I have no desire in doing anything. I get so worried about the things I'm supposed to do but all I do is cry all the time. Please help. I'm drowning.

Hello

Sorry to see you have posted 2 days ago and had no reply , when you are feeling so lonely and if you are the only person in the world that may be feeling like you do it can be a relief when someone replies and let's you know you are not alone

Seem's like you are feeling pretty low at the moment

Could you expand maybe a little more what is happening so we may be able to help more with replies

Please don't feel that you will always feel this way as there is so much support out there if you ask for it and I don't know if you have spoken to your Doctor about how you feel but I think that would be a really good place to start

Let us know how you are & Take Care x

I'm so sorry. I feel that way myself sometimes, but it always passes. I know it's hard to believe when you're in the middle of it, but it does pass.

Hi marnille, I was exactly the same as you at the being of the year everyday was like the way il your feeling, I had to move back in with my parents I was that bad, so trust me please when I say I understand how lonely, sad, so very low, unable to do anything, and constantly crying, although the crying makes you feel dreadful at least your getting rid of your emotions, and believe it or not it's a way of healing, you will over come this ( at this time you won't believe anyone telling you this its so hard to believe cause you feel that bad ) but you will get over this you just have to give yourself time ( I'm sick of hearing it ) but it's only time that heals you, just constantly tell yourself you will feel better it's just a blip, I'm here anytime you need to talk, I'm battling to get though everyday myself battling with server Anxitey and depression. So I do understand you take care and keep Intouch

Hello. Okay, consider trying this: FORGET about the things that you need to do, if only for a little while because my guess is that that you're feeling totally overwhelmed by things hence the "drowning" sensation. I say this because I'm exactly the same. The more I stress over things that need doing, the sicker I get on every level there is.

It occured to me that by thinking about needing to do all the time, I wasn't actually helping myself. In fact, I was making things worse. If you can manage it, only THINK about doing little things a day/at a time. Prioritise what is actually important, and the rest will need to wait. Be kind to yourself and ALLOW yourself this. Small steps, okay?

As others have said, this dreadful feeling will pass although it might take an itsy bitsy bit of personal effort. Start very small and don't forget to pat yourself on the back for doing it. You'll soon find that with each day, your mood will slowly change for the better.

Wish you the absolute best!
