I don't understand

I don't understand why I don't feel happy anymore . I can't remember theast time was genuinely happy and carefree. When I see others laughing and smiling, I wonder what has happened to me . Where is the old me . Because whatever I do the smile doesn't feel authentic enough . Something just doesn't feel right .

@selfdisciplinedEast9581 Firstly, I just wanted to say I'm glad you reached out about this, I think this is something that quite a few people experience but don't feel able to communicate and you are definitely not alone in this💜

It must feel really confusing to not understand what has changed, and not feel moments of happiness. Can you pinpoint a time where this changed at all?

What previously has made you feel happy and carefree? Do you have any hobbies or interests that you used to do, that you could try?

Sometimes for me when I feel this way, I have to take a break from the everyday stresses of life and go back to the basics to build up.

If you'd ever like to discuss with a listener how you are feeling, please do reach out and request a chat! It can feel isolating when you see others happy and don't feel the same, but you are not alone!

Hi there ....how are doing I will say you are like already on the first step cause you are realizing this and know this .....you don't have to have it all figured out like maybe what happened or why you think something has changed

Just let things flow naturally, if you are smiling and you think is not genuine..ask yourself why you think that

sometimes it can just be our mind overthinking it or we are been overwhelmed

Take care of yourself 😊
