I KNOW something is not right with me, but I feel so stuck in this darkness that I don't have the energy to make that call to the doctor for an appointment and fight back again. It pains me to even wake up every morning. I no longer look forward to going into the office every day. Instead I have to force myself to get up and get ready in the morning to go help other people when I can't even help myself. I literally stayed in my bed ALL DAY yesterday and slept for a good portion of it. I just want to be left alone. I HATE feeling this way and it's exhausting having to put on a fake "I'm Great" face when all I want to do is be alone with my darkness. It's getting worse as the weeks go by and I don't want to go back to that again, but I'm on my way back anyway and I don't know if I have the strength to fight AGAIN. I'm so tired of having to fight to feel okay with me. Vent over, thanks for listening.

Thanks for posting this. I hope you are able to find the energy to call your doctor and set up that appointment to start getting the help you need. You deserve it! And it is so tiring having to pretend that everything is good when all you feel inside is miserable. I wish you luck in fighting back, and hope to hear more from you soon.

I've been feeling the same way and have been battling depression for years and years (comes...I fix it and then a few years it comes again). I know it's the worse feeling in the world feeling like that and everyone around you says "cheer up". Trust me...if it were that easy I would. I know you feel like you are sinking in a black hole but you have to push yourself to call the doctor and get Meds/change of Meds. Something wi work for you...there are so many Meds on the market. I know you feel like the dark feeling won't go away but I promise it will. It's hard to believe it when nothing is actually causing you to be sad...you just are. But trust me...I've been through this depression so many times I know for sure you will get better. Once you see someone you will slowly start to see the sun shine and the light at the end of the tunnel even though right now you feel like they don't exist. Get the help you need...call a doctor

I know its hard pretending all the time and you shouldn't have too! You deserve to be happy and not exhausted like you are. It sucks that these feelings come out of the blue with no apparent cause. I hope you are able to find the energy/willpower to call the doctor. My thoughts and prayers go out to you!

Hi,
i am feeling as you did when you wrote this post. i do not have any suggestions. No i take that back. i have one suggestion. When you get out of bed, or before you are allowed to go back to bed you call the doctor. Make bed the reward for calling the doctor. Other than that all i can think of is breathe |
