Undiagnosed Hi I'm New.

New Here
Hi I'm new here and just looking for a place of support.

I have currently been through a series of traumatic events. I am not currently working and have found myself very isolated and depressed so I guess today I just managed to pick up my computer and find some help out here.

I'm not sure if anyone else understands. I do have a therapist and a doctor. I missed my appointment today because I just don't feel like there is any hope, or I belong in society any more. I am feeling very jaded...ruined in fact. I keep looking on facebook at pictures of my younger sister and wishing I had her eyes again, her heart, yet feeling so good she isn't ruined.

I'm not really sure how to explain this. Once upon a time I felt innocent in many ways. I remember when my ex always used to tell me how innocent i looked. That wasn't too long ago in fact. I'm 29 now.

These days I look at my eyes and I despise them though once they were my favourite feature. I get a lot of comments about my eyes. But only the beholder of ones eyes know how beautiful they really are.

Do any of you find yourself just sat there expressionless ? faceless ? emotionless ? Do you remember arriving to that point, and suddenly realizing.. something is wrong here ?

I know this is a depressed introduction, but this is where I'm at, and just trying to find people who understand or feel similar.
 
Hi Android and welcome to the forum:) I do not recognize my own face in the mirror anymore. I try to smile, but I do not have an expression. Thus the smiling, I want to look better than I do normally. I am glad you found this forum. It is a good place to heal. It offers alot of hope and help. The people here have been there and are very understanding. You are not alone. It is nice to meet you. Take your time as you get familiar with this place. Post as you are able. I look forward to getting to know you.
