Re: what a horrible day
@MDT I hear you. I try to go out ever few days at least, sit and have a coffee, go the market or library, just for normality. Could you try a few things to give you a tiny bit of normality? And make you less isolated.

@Sans911
I think that is the problem
I am sick of doing all those things on my own. I end up feeling even more isolated. And on the occassions that i do stuff , i feel like it is a chore. Like i never enjoy it. Its just so void of anything.
I have close to no motivation for anything anymore. It seems like life will always have a problem. I know life is tough but it just bugs me how much effort the smaller things take.. i feel like i should not be allowed to be depressed or anxious.
I then start to tumble down hill if life requires a bit more effort.
I don't get how i always have to be the one that cops a raw deal.
People are not taking me seriously enough or something. I cant approach life with that mindset because it is not healthy, but then why else are things screwing up...

Re: what a horrible day
I think it’s all about hope that there is some joy to be had and the longing to be part of that @MDT @Sans911

Re: what a horrible day
@MDT - Depression can be really hard, and often drains us of motivation, and can lead to isolation. And we don't choose whether or not to have depression and anxiety.
I hear you're zapped of energy right now, so maybe just try something really small. Is there a Cafe near you, that you can just sit for a while?
It also sounds like you're overwhelmed today, and that's hard too. It won't always be like this. There will be days that are a little easier.

Hi @MDT i have been following but havent had anything to add to what others have said.
The last post you wrote just before Souls recent post is exactly the way i think atm. And yes out generation is unless you 'fit in with the in crowd' is hard to get into or come by. Its like your either in or your out

Re: what a horrible day
I guess sometimes I need to remember this quote @outlander
“If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment.”
It's from marcus aurelius.. some roman emperor..
it's relevant because i need to remember it whenever i feel alone or isolated... being along or isolated doesn't mean you need to feel it internally (though it is hard not too). Just look at it as an objective fact.
Sometimes this helps me. Other times it's useless.
What plans do you make for yourself @outlander ?
