I say "post" even though it's not. I just have a new normal...I will never be who I was.

That said, I am finding that I am way more emotional than I was before....I was happy, then depression left me emotionally numb...now it's just ridiculous. I'm tired of being so sad. I'm tired at crying at the drop of a hat. I'm tired of thoughts of something that happened AGES ago bringing me to tears. I'm tired of constantly feeling so very...well SAD.

Problem is that emotions are really uncontrollable. They just happen. You can't "cheer up". Or "look on the bright side". Or "be happy". You just can't because you don't have any control over it. You just don't. I do what I am supposed to. I have a good life. "Coping with Emotions" (as this part of the forum suggests) is a joke. It's impossible.

Why will this chronic sadness not give me a break?
