i’m 20, in university, and nothing has really started me feeling like this. i can’t sleep… i’m almost scared to because it’s so hard to wake up. i have all the common problems that a girl my age normally has, so i think im just being dramatic. i’ve felt like this for months. i dont even think i want to get better…but i know i should…its an awful cycle and i just … i just want to understand why i feel like this.

I know the feeling. You put on a smile in front of everyone but once you are alone in your run all you want to do is cry or feel miserable. I feel lonely and scared too. Not the lonely feeling people get when they have that significant other but that lonely feeling when people dont or cant understand you. Oh and i am sad as well.

Everyone have things in life they can be thankful for. The hard part is looking past the bad things and only see the good, but i dont know if its possible to keep that positive attitude everyday

You should talk, talking makes it better. It lets you know that things probably arent as bad as they appear to me

i think im scared to talk… im getting used to feeling like this and im scared to feel differently… i dont know if i can handle it. im starting to think that real happiness doesnt exist.. people just make it up and pretend all the time. why is it so hard? why do we have to try and be happy… why can’t things just inspire it inside of us? soo many questions…

I know exactly what you mean and trust me i wish i had the answers but i dont. We are both in the same boat here. You should not feel like an idiot. What is this site for? For a person, any person no matter what the topic is, to rant and get their feelings out. Whether they are good or bad. I am here to help people. You made a post and i obviously found it interesting. So dont feel like this is a waste because its not. I think you need to sit back and think then once you figure out what is really bothering you write it in this post and see if people can give you advice.

i totally understand. why do we have to try and be happy. that’s what ive been thinking this couple of weeks. we fail even we try hard. we succeed sometimes.
life is so tiring. i understand you don even want to get better. same here. ppl encourage you to feel better but it gives me more pressure “I have to get better”. coz it’s mentally things, it’s not that easy and takes time. im afraid all my frds will be gone by then…

i wish i had an answer for you…
