Without hope, what is the point right? - I also let general and world situations get to me, and it really does drag me down too.
You said you are eating healthily because you are borderline underweight and want to keep an eye on this? Well, perhaps look at the positive benefits of adopting a healthyish lifestyle (Dieting and fitness I am ready to give up on because I can feel no mental benefit, however I know that it gives me something to cling on to). - And I know 'positive' is harder to put into action than said, but at least it is something to work towards feeling? Or just happiness, more importantly.
I know how damaging flashbacks can be and many others do too, these flashbacks change my mood instantly, they keep the one held down and trapped in a time frame, there is never a day that i'm truly at peace within my mind, and it gives me less hope everyday. If there was a way to deal with them, i'd tell you but in the mean time medication and exercise temporarily masks the emotional turmoil- from experience so far.

I do walk a lot, along with not eating much unhealthy food....I mean yeah I don't have much money and sometimes I end up so hungry I might have to grab chips or something not to healthy from a convenience store. But yeah I do end up getting quite a bit of walking in pretty regularly.
And flashbacks really do suck, makes me feel pathetic freaking out when no danger is present, but yeah its weird like I don't care about what happens to me in the end but I still get anxious and worried for my safety during flashbacks, even though over-all I don't really care....its more putting up the appearance of geuninly caring about going to therapy with the genuine feeling it will help, trying to live as healthy as possible taking meds when half the time I am thinking of suicide(not on the verge of plans but thinking about it in the sense of not enjoying life) even if it seems I am ok on the outside to other people.
