Feeling disconnected

[Moodling]

Hello fellow sufferers. Does anyone else feel as if they are acting their life instead of living it? Pretending everything is normal, OK, no problems, but falling apart as soon as they are alone?

Yes yes yes .. But saying that for a while when someone says how are you I tell them I am not ok now as they expect you to say I'm ok thanks .. We air a mask to hide it from people .. We should all take off the mask and be proud we have the courage to be who we truly are which is unhappy and battling

I am yes yes yes again. I used to do that a lot more when I was younger than I do now though since I got the confidence to be myself a lot more. There is definitely a case for doing it at work if you want to keep your job, but I know how difficult that can be. .

Do you have family/friends? Do you have hobbies you enjoy? Do you suffer from depression or anxiety? x

Yes but since I was in hospital I've realised you have to talk about it to someone. It does help if you can find someone you trust to confide in

Yep. I was just thinking about this very thing recently. I feel like an actor on a stage. Connected but not really. I also feel like I'm sleep walking through life and I don't like that thought or feeling. We only have one life after all. I seriously do have changes to make in 2017. 😑
