dang I relate to all of that so much!! hang in there. we're in this never-ending depressing slog together, even if anonymous and far apart.

SeekingAfrica, I just wanted to say I feel ya. I'm in a similar low place mentally. Hang in there.

Nope! I promise you I will disappoint everyone here just like everywhere else in my life, including myself. I am really depressed, lol. Don't expect much. Just still keeping going (not giving up completely) is my accomplishment right now. I don't have anything positive or constructive to offer...

I'm still only hanging on by a thread at the moment, but I'll try walking more. Thanks.

oh I posted that without refreshing the page and seeing your questions. I may not answer them all but I can see how the inventory is helpful. For sure I know I need to exercise and get outside more (because I don't). It's just hard to bring myself to do anything seemingly "extra" (beyond...

Thanks, applecore. I'll check out the tweets. I remember back in 2007-ish when I was probably at my lowest, sometimes all that would get me through one moment was looking at a little robin hopping around, or a daffodil. that kind of thing. It was grounding in a way, too (back then I was close to...

No, I'm in the US. But I thankfully I do live near nice scenic stuff. I try to force myself to go to it. I'm still doing pretty poorly today. Nothing new. I think I like coming on here because I can actually be honest at least to someone out there in the universe how awful I feel mentally. I try...

Thanks. :( I think I saw some plovers earlier today; they were cute.

Here I am posting again, because I feel you-know-what, lol (the topic of this forum). Maybe checking in here helps a little. I don't know.

Thanks. Yeah I'm in auto-pilot mode. Just getting up and doing stuff because the alternative is being in bed all day. That's what I want (to avoid being awake and doing anything) but I also know I shouldn't. But my mood is so low. I feel disconnected and empty. Wellllllp thanks for reading

Thanks for the responses/support, arfie and Applecore. Still feeling really low today, wondering the point of it all. But, lol, I'm still here. I was able to do a thing I'd been putting off within the last few days, so that helped. I don't know. I guess I'll just wallow around in this until my...

I have nothing helpful to offer except I definitely have attachment issues, too. I've spent my life avoiding close relationships with people probably because my primary one (in childhood) was so invasive, enmeshing, soul-annihilating, painful, chaotic, draining, damaging, and so on. So I get...

To the OP and others who relate, I feel you. I'm feeling pretty low/sad/glum the past few days and last night while crying was also thinking, why am I so sad, when other people out there are dying or dealing with violence or natural disasters or other terrible things. But I guess, yeah. Maybe...

Thanks to the people who responded in October. I'm still hanging in there. I guess I'm here again at this moment because I've been feeling low/sad/depressed (more than usual, that is, because I am always depressed) the past few days and not entirely sure why. Last night I was crying in the dark...

Thanks for the comments and letting me know about the PM thing. I saw the envelope up in the corner so I figured it was available, but I totally understand why it isn't. I was just avoiding saying what my "bad event" was since it's kind of unusual/oddly specific...I want to be anonymous. I don't...
