Ever feel so unbelievably sad and disappointed-

that no matter what you do to try and get your spirits up... it just feels impossible?

Sometimes the pain and sadness is far too strong for me to handle....

I wonder when enough will be enough.
On a daily bases

Yesterday was National evaluate your life day, and god did I evaluate it.

One of the worst unhappiest lives I know

I'm like this, but have been in therapy for a while and am on medication to deal with trauma/anxiety. It's a coping mechanism. The less you get your hopes up, the less you're likely to be hurt even more. Perhaps think about journaling your thoughts or reaching out to a trusted friend/professional to discuss these feelings?
 
As a teen I liked to think life was shit and all that but oh boy. 😂

But no really, I have my sad days where I don't feel like doing anything but overall, I'm okay. Content. Not happy, but okay. Usually snacking on some comfort food makes me feel better. The start of a new day also helps.
 
Yep. Perks of having a persistent form of depression. When it hits it sends you WAY down and I'm a nightmare to be around. Therapy and some medication can help, but even that requires time.
 
I've been feeling like that a lot recently. I feel great for some hours (like right now), but other times I can feel terrible. I'm trying to work on it and get myself out of the dark place.
 
This year has been awful for depression. In January my husband quite literally died on me in our living room and i had to bring him back, then two weeks later we went on a cruise with my inlaws and got covid. I had long covid for about 3 months of symptoms. During this time i was trying to stabilize my husbands bp and changed his diet because i was constantly worried he would drop dead again. Then after i recovered from covid my bp was all over the place and started having heart issues so then they monitored me too. I fixed myself. Then in all that time my dad got a second cancer, lung. So thinking the worst with lung cancer as i took him back and forth to his appointments. ....so much i could go on but i won't. However I'm ending this year with a broken back from a car accident in November. So yeah... depression is certainly hovering around me. I try my best to occupy my mind with positive things and not to dwell or even think about everything going on, otherwise I'd literally go mad.

Sounds like you are being SEVERELY tested, lady! I hope that everything gets turned around for you, and SOON!
