Unhappy Huge slump

Im so depressed right now. There are too many things going on right now and I feel like I have no control over any of them. I just don't want to be me right now. I feel like crying so bad, but I fear that if I start I won't be able to stop. Whenever I feel like this I have this urge to change my phone number and not tell anyone. I want to isolate myself. But I know that is not a good idea. I don't even want to go to work or leave my apt for that matter. I really wish I was normal, whatever that is. I don't want to do this anymore, I want to get out of my head!

Re: Huge slump

I know things seem like it will never get better, that you will always feel like this but you wont. i was diagnosed with depression almost 10 yrs ago and was only told i had bp in august. i felt exactly like you do now, like you just want to get out of your head, to not be you but it can get better.

whatever you do, dont cut yourself off from people, i know that's eaiser said than done but it does help....

Re: Huge slump

I think we all feel like this at times.... unfortunately it's the bain of our existance as we live our lives with this illness. When you can, try to focus on the things that make you happy, even if they are just small silly things. Even journaling during this time can be helpful as is a board like this as you know you're not alone. Good luck....
