So how does it feel to be truly happy? Like, 'Happy from within' as they would say? Cause ever since I was a child I've considered myself to be a happy and positive person, despite the terrible things that happen. And I tell myself "Im just a strong, happy person." but day by day I'm realizing that I never really processed any of the traumatic things that happened to me, never really acknowledged being hurt, used, and so on. .

One of the biggest contributors to my depression now is needing people.. I tend to always isolate myself when I need help but now I just really need that. I feel so dead inside, I feel scared and lonely, it feels strange being in my body, in my mind, I don't recognize myself and feel somewhat detached.

I feel like a stranger to myself tbh..

Poor broke and lonely .I feel the same way .l get the feeling that nobody is willing to help.I gone to different organization and I feel like they won't help me because I'm not a addict.I think that help is not something I deserve. I think that.my life is over.

I share the same pain, it is a dark and lonely life, no energy or desire to do a thing

Are used to love riding my ATV. Snowmobiling. Just doing any outdoor activity made me happy now I don’t want to do anything all I do is work if I had a brand new ATV in my garage I would not even want to ride it I don’t understand what has happened to me it’s like somebody hit a switch.

It is so hard to live life when you are running from the thoughts in your own mind. if anybody would ever like to talk with me I am a good listener I know what it is like to stumble around in the dark.

@DD2416 Exactly worded what I'm feeling at the moment. It's scary, not being able to look forward to anything or have anything to get excited or happy over

@Fred l9 Ouch, this hits hard. Looking at something you once loved doing and having no feeling now.

I share your pain, I'm here if you need to talk.. We're here for each other
