friends help: Ok so I have this weird thing where I feel sort of down even when I am in a really great moment. - Help.com

you don’t need to ‘fix’ it for the sake of anyone else. i’m not entirely sure as to what you are feeling, but i would suggestion that feeling sad when something happy is happening connotes a feeling of internal empiness - something is missing. however, without deeper explaination, its difficult to tell. don’t label things everyone else likes as things you like, or makes you happy. you are different from everyone else. hope any of that can help

thank you that does help. I know that what I feel is different and the things that I take pleasure in are different, but I live in a small and narrow minded community and its hard for me to be different all the time. I am different to a certain extent but if I take it further I’ll be all alone. So, I try my best but it doesn’t seem to make me feel anything. Yes, I do feel a little empty when I am around a certain group of people. I know this may sound strange and not very good but I have a lot of thoughts as to running away and not dealing with anything, but those are only momentarily and then I just get up and face the world.

I guess what I am trying to say is that all of this wears me out sometimes and then I feel down.

i sympathise. dealing with narrow-minded people are the worse, especially if you are a person with any sort of flair. perhaps this ‘hiding’ or ’supressing’ yourself is what is causing the sadness. i mean, you are forcing yourself to be something you are not, and that makes you unhappy?

in my opinion, its much, MUCH better to be 100% true to yourself, even if 1, 10 or the whole world hates you. at least you can look at yourself in the mirror and night and say, yes, today, i was me. and i am proud of that.

as you grow into a larger community, more people appriciate people like tha, so i wont be like this forever. however as for now…i don’t know. i still say be yourself but…i understand you don’t wanna become an outsider. do people truly oust you/not accept you if you TRY and be yourself?

I am myself. Its just that the people I am with are fake and always try to prove themselves in ways that can be slightly silly and absurd. I am a very creative person but I also feel like my creativity is being trodden on when I am with these people. Its odd because although these people have relatively good hearts they still somehow leave me feeling empty.

hey there ^_^ , if you put some details and stuff we may be able to help more and stuff , am not sure exactly what is the problem and stuff so i dont know what part to try to help… but i will try, i hope i didnt get this wrong or something… most ppl are fake and self centered and stuff it’s just that this is what humanity is coming to be… most ppl are stupid lol at least this is what i think , in this world you choose ur life and stuff , you decide if you wana wear a mask or be urself , seek urself and you will find it , do what you feel is right , do what makes you happy , even if ppl think it’s crazy or stupid…

Well thank you. Your poems actually made me realize that there are people that feel the way I do about things, and they are actually quite close to me. I hope one day people will stop hiding behind their masks and just come out with who themselves. It’ll really help save the world I think. But its hard… it really is. Anyway thanks for your help again, its making it easier for me to figure out things.

btw
what is urself? why cant you be urself?

btw this i wrote for another post maybe it will help ya as well :

” i really blame the media for the depression of this new generation
what is really was is virtual or a lie ?
first of all let me tell you , you will never be perfect cause nobody is perfect or nobody will be… second no such thing as a living happily ever after , life is all about ups and down sometimes you are sad and in problem, sometime everything is going gr8 and you are happy , it’s like a wheel turning , the smart person and with strong personality and stuff learn to make the best out of what he has and try to smile in the downs cause even a baby can smile in the ups , we learn to endure pain and solve our problems , the ones that we really cant we try to accept and keep it in the back of our minds… We live , We take chances , We Fall , We Fly Again ^_^
”

real*

wait hehehe lol let me correct that line

*What is real , what is virtual or a lie ? *

that’s better ^_^

“what is urself? why cant you be urself?” To answer your question let me start by saying that I know who I am. That isn’t what I find an obstacle. The reason for my sudden downs and feelings of sadness is because other people don’t know who they are. A lot of the people that I have to deal with everyday do things that I am uncomfortable with just to make themselves look good and to make themselves feel like they are in control. They also tend to put me down along the way. Its hard to really be myself 100% because these people aren’t even themselves. I guess what I am trying to say is that I love some of the company that I am around, but at the same time they make me feel really uncomfortable. They are the best of the worst. I have to agree with your media statement as well. Sometimes the media can sway us into thinking that we are supposed to be a certain way… You tend to get lost in what is real and what is expected of you.

i think ur reply is quite general it’s not a specific thing so i will try my best …
btw knowing urself and what you want and stuff is gr8 there are more ppl than you can image who live there life and dont know there identy so they start acting like others and stuff …
well i know one thing dont let them step on you and **** , you dont have to go like stop doing that you fuqin pig ^_^ lol i think body language and stuff is the best… real friends dont put each other down and stuff but help them up so am not sure how much of a friendship you have with these ppl…
