I've begun to think of myself exclusively rather than seeing myself tied to anything (family,"friends",people I work with) Its like my depression is slowly sawing at the ties that bind me here..to continue. Its so stupid that everything, I mean even stuff that's not supposed to be sad is depressing. watching anyone have fun/be happy makes me think, "I remember that, that's what normal people do" It's like I'm not even human, just some character on a bad sitcom that everyone hates and laughs at.

Does anyone else feel like they've been dehumanized be depression? Isolated and chopped from everything/one, and just alone?

Oh, siempre nada, I feel like this all the time. I even feel isolated from my kids at times, when I can't seem to drag myself out of bed. You are definitely NOT alone.
Just find one person that you can talk to. Someone who cares about you and your feelings. Vent here with us, we're definitely here to listen and to be your shoulder to cry on.
Are you seeing a T? That might be something worth looking into if you're not.
((((((((((((((siempre nada)))))))))))))))))
Big cyber hugs to you. Hope you feel better soon

Ahh...some people who feel as I do . I'm so wanting the ties to people and activities but the meds aren't getting me there , so I nulify that thought and retreat into a place where I try to create a purpose to be. A constant struggle . So pitted the road we travel . Hope that we all find some remnants of our former selves...at this moment I'll take not travelling alone .
