I'm almost positive i'm okay..?

3 Replies

I'm not as depressed as i use to be 12 or so months ago but i am lacking the ability to find a drive to do anything . i don't have hobbies nor see the need for any honestly. i go to school, work out a hour a day after , shower , watch a episode of supernatural then go to sleep and do it over again . weekends i'm outside by myself and my dog but walking back roads and thinking ( i over think a lot .)

My mentor thinks i'm getting depressed again but i honestly don't feel depressed or sad or anything of that sort . I may be anxious 24/7 but that was always there . I have no urge to do things outside of my daily life . i try to interact with people as least as i can . I don't like it . i've done Dbt groups etc . i'm perfectly content with being by-myself

Just wondering am i okay ?

Hi Zufk

You've had to ask the question so you're not convinced. I did a little laugh as I read your post. We have very similar personality traits and I love me some Supernatural. Do you know why you feel anxious? Have you tried deep breathing? People have forgotten how to breath. A lot of us are taking short rapid breaths without realising and it actually contributes to feelings of anxiety. Stop for a moment and reset, breath deep and slow, right into the stomach. Take a few moments, see if you feel a little better afterwards.

I'm glad that you're not as depressed as you used to be. That's good. However, I just want to mention that when someone doesn't have the drive or desire to do anything and/or wants to be alone and away from people "all the time", it's likely that depression is an issue. I actually know people who consider their workout routine as their hobby. :) So, not filling every hour of every day with an activity doesn't necessarily mean depression. There is an old proverb that says "Whoever isolates himself pursues his own selfish desires;

He rejects all practical wisdom." I would be concerned if I constantly and purposely tried to deal with people as least as possible. We were created as gregarious people. I read one site that said humans are social by nature and need other humans to survive. Wanting to constantly be alone is not good no matter how you look at it. Glad you're here expressing yourself. This is one way to interact with people without feeling pressure if that's a problem for you.
