Or at least give me a fucking reason for why you arbitrarily flip flop my feelings thoughts, personality and entire worldview every few months. I thought we were done with that whole puberty thing years ago.It is like I have someone inside my head controlling my feelings and subconsious thoughts. So I was feeling pretty good about myself from august up till the last week of December, I felt happy, socialised etc. asked two girls on dates (months apart I am no douchebag) I could look in the mirror and see one sexy bastard looking back at me. But then out of nowhere, for no reason whatsoever, I started feeling that I was faking my happiness and confidence, that it was all a lie for the benefit of others. I started to lose interest in everything again, and my confidence and will to live gradually dropped. I felt nothing on Christmas, but kept my happy face on.Remember this blog?New years I went clubbing with Becky (one of my closest childhood friends) and spent the time wondering why I was there. I felt like shit when I got homeI went on a date with the second girl I asked out on jan the 17th. We had met a month before at a club, where we were kissing for 3 hours straight (admittedly both a little drunk). We had a super nice meal at a resturaunt I picked then walked along the river thames. We had some ok conversation and she said she wanted to meet again, but my self esteem was low and I wasn't really able to care enough to make any moves. At the end she noticed I had gone all quiet.Over the rest of the month I kept getting worse and worse for no real reason two weeks felt like a year. I had work to do but I knew that if I tried I could have it done within a week, but it still felt like (and still does actually) a monumental task. I remember reading “depression part twoâ€? on hyperbole and a half, and feeling as if I could have written it myself. By the last couple of days of january I couldn't even move my arm enough to check my phone, let alone get out of bed, eat and wash myself. Eating required that I go downstairs, grab a bowl, pour cereal and milk in it, and then chew and swallow it. Each one of those things seemed like too much effort, and for what? So I could survive? Why was I trying to do that? I wished I could just turn off my brain and let my body live out the rest of my life on autopilot, which I am starting to think I may have managed because according to the callendar, there are several days that I just cannot account for.I started to think “Oh shit, this is bad, I need helpâ€?. But then on the 4th of February, I woke up feeling completely normal, again, for no reason whatsoever.I am suddenly alright about everything and I don't know why.Now I don't know what to think. Am I just lazy, and being melodramatic about it, and looking for a scapegoat?
:(
I know them feels man, but for the most part it's like everyday.I've started terrible habits being in school and just being super stressed, I can't seem to figure out how to cut bad habits out either.It's all about the matter of perception which is said a lot and seems very cliche, but it's the truth I guess.Hope all goes better anyway.I usually think that there's no reason to be really depressed, unless death occurs. However not everyone is wired the same. But I still think everyone should try their hardest to keep themselves happy, otherwise life sucks and is boring and dull :P
Just my two cents, hope your mood stabilises to something nice.Maybe you're a girl. You sound like a girl.
I definitely wouldn't call it being lazy or melodramatic. I think it's more of a symptom of not knowing how to feel. If your brain is anything like mine, being emotionally confused means picking whatever emotion comes to mind and feeling it a lot.
Sorry to hear you feel this way; it's tough. Hang in there!I am watching that now Steve, it never really gets as extreme as it is shown in the video for me. I have never attempted or made plans for suicide, I don't normally ever get as bad as I did last week, I don't have any delusions (at least I don't think so, I am actually foggy about the definition of delusion) and I don't usually have any really high manic periods, but I do tend to make over ambitious goals. I do fit some of the things in the video, but it rarely ever gets extreme.
I don't really feel like I am in danger, just that I may end up wasting my life by not having any goals that I can achieve.I also never really get the rage that is described in the part with the two teenagers. I just get a bit irritable sometimesah well thanks, I will keep it in mind if things ever get worse in the future
