I woke up feeling lonely and depressed?
Here is something that might make you feel better. "Let it go, Let it roll right off your shoulder Don't you know The hardest part is over Let it in, Let your clarity define you In the end We will only just remember how it feels Our lives are made In these small hours These little wonders, These twists & turns of fate Time falls away, But these small hours, These small hours still remain" Only 10 days to go.
I woke up feeling depress, empty, alone. why?
Because life is void of meaning, insane and empty. Life by definition, when all the subjective things are stripped off, is bizarre, warped and mad. You live to work, to live another day. You sacrifice everything for man-made currency and numbers in a bank account. In the end you have nothing to show for it except a tired body, a cynical, depressed worn-out mind. Almost everyone you attempt to trust or love will either backstab you, treat you inhumanely or become a disappointment or take advantage of you. Real friendship is very rare, unique and almost impossible to come by. Family is everything, though. I still find some solace in helping unfortunate people, and one of my only long term goals is setting up maybe an orphanage for disadvantaged kids so they can at least experience a few years of blissful life and happiness before they have to embark in this shithole. I'm 20 and have also pondered on taking my life, but since life is pretty much the only thing we're going to experience in this universe, I've decided not to give up yet. I run a business of my own and save up for the purpose mentioned above. Depression is very hard if not impossible to cure, I can set off the symptoms for a few hours or a day with a proper diet though. Even though the symptoms are obviously psychological, I found it gets worse if you dramatically cut down on fat and deprive yourself. Medication is only a temporary relief. I hope you will get better
Why do I wake up from naps feeling depressed and lonely?
Whenever I take naps during the day (1hr-2hrs), I always wake up feeling very sad, lonely, and anxious. I never wake confused about what time or day it is, but I feel sad enough that I want to burst into tears, lonely like I'm cut off from the world or that everyone is out doing something and enjoying something but I'm not, and anxious like there's something I'm worrying about but can't remember. It's a heavy feeling that makes me feel extremely down and terrible. It lasts for the rest of the day and sometimes I get so upset when I still have hours left to go until I can sleep again for the night and wake up without this feeling. It's not so bad when I wake up from a nap and I have somewhere to go right after, or my roommate/friend is home. But I'm alone now. I feel like going out to the store just so I can be around people. Has anyone experienced this? How do I stop this feeling (apart from not taking naps, which I don't plan)?
Why do I wake up depressed and crying?
I resonate with Bruce Davis answer. Something in you is opening up.You can think of all the life experiences and interactions we’ve had with people as clouds that have gathered around your heart. They block us from our true self. Crying can be like a rain cloud releasing all these pent-up feelings - especially of guilty feelings.You may try to feel a sense of gratitude after these tears. Be thankful for life and everyone who supports you. When we embrace this inner pain instead of running from it, it can lose its power over us.It is very important to start shifting your thinking and taking up gratitude. Allowing ourselves to indulge too much in thinking about sadness and its causes is also not useful.Here is another technique that can help - at night before going to sleep, take a few minutes and feel love and gratitude to those that support you. Start to include others that come to mind in this feeling. Try doing this every night. In the morning see if you feel a little different. Start the day with a minute of gratitude.You can definitely come out of this.b
Why am I depressed if my life is fine?
You are at a very unstable point in your life. You are 16. A lot is expected of you. You are in the middle right now. You are not quite a child and not quite an adult. That can lead to a lot of anxiety.... I'm glad to hear that your life is good and that you have good parents but, from what you have told me in your question, I think that you are suffering from anxiety and depression. Depression is so hard to put your finger on because you think that your life isn't so bad yet, you can't seem to stop the depression. Depression isn't just a state of mind. Depression can be the result of a chemical imbalance in your brain. Everyone's brain is suppose to produce a chemical called Serotonin. Some brains don't produce any or, they don't produce enough. Serotonin is critical for feeling balanced. If your brain doesn't produce it or enough of it, you will suffer from depression....I know what I'm talking about because I too suffer from depression. I take an antidepressant. It has changed everything for me. You should talk to your parents and to your doctor and see if an antidepressant could help you. Feeling depressed for no reason is not fun. If your brain isn't producing enough Serotonin, it isn't your fault and there is nothing you can do except to try medication. It could change your life. You said you just want to feel normal...Normal....I always felt I wasn't normal...Antidepressants make you feel normal. I think your problem is a combination of your age and uncontrollable depression (which isn't your fault). Just talk with your parents and doctor. I think it will be very helpful to you. I hope I could help
Is it common to feel depressed the day after smoking pot?
Yes.It boils down to two little brain bits communicating. Your consciousness at the cellular level is billions of connections happening in the brain. One is sending—one is receiving.When a powerful drug is thrown into the equation, the receptor gets blasted. The transmitter has no job to do, so it shuts down to avoid waste (like muscle loss due to no stimulation). When the powerful mind-altering substance is no longer being pumped into the system, your neurotransmitters do not immediately hop back into action (skip leg day, it will hurt next time). The crappy feeling when you stop using is due to your body having to readjust. You stop producing the chemical that naturally causes the ‘good feeling’ when you blasted your brain with foreign chemicals.This is a major component to addiction. After a while you don’t feel normal without the extra blasts of ‘feel good’ because your natural production was determined to be unnecessary and shut down.Luckily with occasional pot use, the withdrawals aren’t dangerous. You might feel less happy, less hungry, and less sleepy—but it’s not booze tremors or xanax withdrawal instadeath.
Why do people feel so depressed after a break up?
when you are in a relationship, that person becomes part of your life. a lot of times, you find some sort of validation in that person. when that person goes away, it's like that sense of self-worth is ripped away from you. not only that, but the good feelings your brain produces when you're in love, well those are also taken away. it's comparable to a person getting off drugs. you are sort of in withdrawal, and it can physically and emotionally hurt. this is why those girls who dedicate their every waking moment to their boyfriends are so devastated when they get dumped. that's why it's always good to have a balance of important people in your life. in case one is ripped away, you'll have the others to balance you out.
