Something’s not right

Feeling lost and depressed

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

Feeling so alone and lost again @Snowie @Bunniekins @Jynx @Appleblossom - it just never seems to go away

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

Hey @Fluttershy1 

Sorry you are feeling that way.

 

I try and break up feeling alone and lost separately.

 

Learning to come to terms with my aloneness has been a life long process.  I am getting used to it and been doing a lot of work on social and interpersonal stuff.  Sometimes I enjoy my aloneness and can Celebrate it.  Eg I saw articles about people spending christmas alone, which is a trigger for and for many.  How do you feel about? Do you have anything planned?

 

Feeling lost, has shifted a lot for me.  I often feel lost in a crowd, but been working on that too.  For a long time I have been catching the train going into the city at nights for various rehearsals and things and going against the flow of the all the workers in peak hour.  It gave me a funny sense of assurance. They were doing the right thing. I was doing the right thing, but going against the flow, walking alongside the wall... or whatever was appropriate.

 

Just sharing examples and ways I have dealt with things as conversational.  Your path through being lost is unique to you and your values and needs.  Take care

Hey @Appleblossom @Snowie @Bunniekins @Jynx @tyme @outlander - things got bad, ended up in Emergency because of my MH, attempt didn’t work as I got the help I needed, I hit a really low patch yesterday and it just didn’t seem to end. 
but I got the help I needed and now I’m safely back at home in bed. 

im safe 

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

Aww @Fluttershy1 I'm sorry to hear that things have been so rough for you, but very very glad that you're safe and got the care you needed. What are you doing with yourself tonight? 

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

You know what my plan is @Jynx - curl up in bed with the cat and sleep I’m exhausted. Feeling safe though.

 

kitty loves me 

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

@Fluttershy1 kitty cuddles are the best medicine! I hope sleep finds you swiftly 🤞💜

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

Tbh @Jynx - I think I will, ngl I don’t think I ever want to drink activated charcoal in hospital again…… 

 

im safe

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

Sounds rough @Fluttershy1 - yes much rest is much needed! 

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

It is rough @Jynx - tbh I just wanna hide and sleep 

Re: Feeling lost and depressed

I think, at least for tonight, hiding and sleeping is absolutely valid @Fluttershy1. Do you have any obligations for tomorrow?
