I am not depressed at the moment. I actually feel kinda high (the "ha, reality is weird, let's obsess about meaning of words and symbols and let's go shopping". I guess materialism is satisfactory to me in this state of mind, because it is somehow simple and clear... at least not overly complicated. I guess I need it sometimes).
But all in all, I have bouts of feeling sad. Been working on my thesis and while it is going well, it makes me sad. And at the same time, this gives me cynical satisfaction of being better than others who just don't see we (as humanity) have a problem. But it's not just the world, it is my life too. Had few deep talks with some of my friends and I think they dug little bit too deep. I guess I realized some things about myself and life, and while it feels enlightening, I feel sad and slightly hurting. I don't know. I wonder where do I go from here......

Gentle hugs to you Venus. I'm sad too, I just really miss my daddy today (plus, my mom is N0T the touchy feely lovey dovey type) guess I just want some sort of comfort.
Hope you feel better soon, sometimes enlightenment can expose parts we'd rather kept in the dark... XOXO |

I feel the same exact way. Those "deep conversations" have triggered horrible dreams & my psychotic breakdown yesterday...

Can anyone really have a deep conversation and hold the knowledge than humans are troubled without feeling a little sad? Doubt it.
For me, I always view my moods as overarching and my emotions are simply reactions to daily events. I can feel happiness while depressed so, why not feel saddness when manic? |

If anything, mania amplifies things. It's not all "happy happy joy joy" but it's ALWAYS intense.

I agree with Shayatanic, it amplifies things. I know when I get manic sometimes I start crying and get really sad inside because I can't slow down. All my emotions seem bigger and more frenetic. They mania turns from "hyperhappygoodness" to "look at where you ended up" or "look at what you're really doing and can't stop". Idk, hard to explain. But most of all, I understand, and big hugs to you.
((((((((((((((VenusHalley))))))))))))) It will pass.
