Hi I’m sere. Today is my birthday and every year it gets worse. I really hate everything and myself. A couple of months ago i moved back home with my parents even if i’m still in uni to save money from rent. I usually go to lessons or stay in bed because that’s all I want to do in this months and in general in my life. I want to sleep forever just to stop thinking. I just want to feel good for one minute. I want to sleep without having bad dreams (i keep losing *** so when i sleep i dream of those things and i feel even worse when i wake up). On top of all of these things i’m stuck with my graduation. I study in italy and I have 3 exams until my final but I have to ask the thesis to one of my teachers. She answered telling me to send her the bibliography but i never did. It’s almost one month now and i should have already finished the first chapter. Im stuck I can’t study I can’t do anything I am so lazy I can’t wash my teeth and I always stay on this *** phone scrolling on *** reels and *** and my attention span is worse than idk what. I’m just so *** sad and done with my life. Does any of you feel worse during your birthday? And do you have any advice to get unstuck from this situation with my uni? Maybe I’m not the only one that is waiting for jesus to come and get me.

+ How do you express happiness when people give you gifts? Because i know my family only wants to see me happy but it’s just so difficult because all I wanna do is sleep and not think about anything instead I have everyone attention on myself and they all expect to see me screaming in happiness (i would do it if I just could but they don’t get the fact that I literally can’t feel it)

I'm really sorry that you are going through this. You actually sound like me whenever my blood pressure is very low. I discovered as an adult that I have no drive or motivation and I miss out on happy experiences when my blood pressure is below a good range. Some places like pharmacy stores sometimes have a free blood pressure cuff check. Just fully relax to get an accurate measurement. If it is low, then try some more coffee. I'm sorry, I don't at all want to make your complicated life sound simple, but I really struggled with the same things in college and I found raising my blood pressure to a normal range really helped everything that you describe. For me I need 2 or 3 cups coffee before noon. Also, possibly try for 3 entire days not using the phone and instead taking walks in the sunshine and trying to talk to have a conversation in person with someone every day. It resets your system. Wealthy executives pay big money to have a non-digital retreat for 3 days several times per year because they know they need it to succeed. I will pray for you to try something different!
