Have you ever had a moment in your life where you have wondered if anyone honestly frickin' cares??? About you, your mental state, your issues, your life? I am going through one of those times right now and sometimes I feel like I have lost it with any and all rationality that I ever had to begin with. Please, is there anyone else that has had a pity party for themselves and was their only guest??? Sorry, I just need some reassurance that I am not alone, this could be normal and someone cares. Thank you. What did you do to help???
Yes, I have been through this many times. Part of it is - I struggle with clinical depression. I have it pretty much under control now - but it can be set off if I'm not careful to take care of myself.
First of all - whether or not anyone else cares (and it is obvious people on here care about you) - you need to care about yourself. This means you need to take care of yourself - get enough sleep - drink enough fluids - eat - take vitamins, etc. You are the only one who can really do this.
What has helped me in the past is to sit down and make some lists about things in my life. What do I like? What do I not like? For instance - my house may be bugging me but my marriage relationship is going pretty good. Maybe our finances are in the pit but other things are going great - its just I can't see beyond the finances. Until I list the good and bad things in my life - I can't seem to separate the bad from the good.
Then I ask myself, "What can I do about what is really getting to me?"
Although I barely know you - other than from here on the site- I want you to know that
I care and if you need to dump on someone - you can always message me. I won't have the answers but I will have a shoulder to cry on.
