I know what it feels like to feel like things are spiralling out of control. I suffered from anxiety attacks my last year of law school. Please hang in there, get help, and don't lose hope. Things will get better, but you should really seek professional help. I kind of figured you had anxiety or depression. It reminded me a little bit of my old self. The first step to fixing it is to admit the problem. I hope to see you back when you feel better. Hopefully soon!
Feeling down once in a while is normal but clinical depression is serious and needs to be treated, not necessarily with drugs but with lifestyle changes. Are you just down or seriously depressed?
Hang in there, hopefully things will get better, and even if they don't, you shouldn't chase bad feelings.
Please take this with humor, but it reminds me of Tom Lehrer (plays piano and sings funny songs...long ago) who said "I am reminded of how little I have done when I realize that when Mozart was my age, he had been dead 7 years."
Ro Sorry you are feeling down. Please take this seriously and get some help Check your local resources for mental health assistance
Here is something to hopefully cheer you up... some large bronze coins or try listening to some music? Happy or sad, doesn't matter, just to let some emotions out. if all else fails, try some funny videos they almost always help Sallent, with all due respect. Please don't say that to anyone who just said they are depressed. It may make them feel worse.
Dang...that's hard. Makes me think of the Serenity Prayer, something like Give me the ability to change the things I can and the serenity to live with those I can't. Give it time.
Hang in there RO. Things are never as bad as they seem. Seek help if you are really depressed and get plenty of rest and exercise. A good walk can go a long way to help you think things through and clear your mind.
Ro, I'm so sorry you're feeling depressed right now. I know from experience how rough it can be. Please know that there is so much meaning to life, to YOUR life. Break ups can really hurt when love seems lost. However, there are many others that have love for you and they always will. It will take time to heal. But, don't be afraid to talk to someone about it. Hang in there. Erin
