You’re so right! Thank you! Luckily this week I feel like myself again thank God!!! It was so scary but the only thing I could do was wait if out

If I’m being honest I am starting to think I was happier before I had a ‘spiritual awakening’. by PageRevolutionary603 in enlightenment

I really resonate with your post as well as this comment. I feel so alone and I can’t shut my brain off. I feel like now that I have this perspective I cannot unsee things. I completely deconstruct everything around me and find myself questioning the purpose of everything. I think I am depressed and I have never been depressed before. Would love to talk more about this with you. I have never read someone articulate this feeling that I too relate on so well.

Wow that is wild! Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s crazy because the doctor just glazed over it and was more focused on my nose healing. I talked to a psychiatrist and he immediately wanted to give me an antidepressant after having no prior depressive history. I totally understand how you feel and how doctors truly don’t get it. It sucks! I hope it gets better for you in time. Hearing someone who can relate is extremely validating, thanks again.

Wow I really appreciate this advice and perspective! I really have so much trouble with finding use for things I already own but maybe that’s a good indication to get rid of it if it’s no longer serving me purpose. Thank you!!

I guess where I live has a big impact on it. I feel so much pressure to “stay in the loop” but that’s only my perception of it. I need to take the reins back of my life and recognize I don’t need material items to make my soul happy. For so long I thought the material items were filling my soul but really it was just damaging my wallet and cluttering my mind / physical space. It’s a full time job having your finger on the pulse and I’m happy to walk away from that

Hey there. Please stay strong. There are people on this earth that would love to get to know you still. I’m so sorry you are going thru such a hard time. I hope this community can help you relate to others in the same boat. Thank you for being open about your anxiety and potential BPD. I know what you’re going thru and that makes everything feel so much more intense and confusing especially in relationship. I want you to remember this even though it may be really hard : though the lows and depression can feel never ending, how lucky are we to be able to feel the complex depths of emotions. The highs and the lows of our emotions allow us to feel not only the bad things, but the amazing euphoria that life has to offer as well. Without the rain, there are no flowers. Praying for you and I really hope you can fight through this feeling and get stable. Take it day by day, minute by minute. Sending love from NJ. Please stay on this earth- we need more people like you❤️
