Life phase
is it a thing for any of you guys that you feel empty, you’re living a good life everythings going fine, but then some day it just hits and you cant feel anything but at the same time feel that the world is falling apart? I would love to know some relatable experiences since its all about listening and supporting each other❤️
Yeah, i feel the same way ... it's like everything is going good but still I'm not okay, I feels lost and confused and sometimes I just cry over small small things..
For me , I think it's cause of my past experiences cause I'm not much expressive and I get emotional easily...so in past there were many small small incidents when I got hurt but didn't expressed...Unexpressed feelings just pile up inside, making me even more sensitive....
yeah it is mainly the past experiences or i would say a trauma response, but you cant figure out what’s triggering you, hope it gets better with time!❤️
@thoughtfulNectarine910 this is so true
@zohaahmed
Absolutely. Sometimes it’s a bad day at school. Sometimes my parents are mad at me. Sometimes I see something depressing online or something strangely relatable to my life that is sad and if feel like I vomit up all my emotions and become a vessel of sadness for the rest of the day. Sometimes it isn’t triggered and the loneliness I feel everyday starts to eat at me or something else, resulting in me spiraling.
@zohaahmed
I can relate to that, i should feel happy, i got more than what i could ask for, but still there are days when it just gets too overwhelming, sometimes because of toxic family but sometimes for no reason at all. I guess that's life, it's never mundane, always something there.. good or bad
life just tests us in different ways everyday!
@zohaahmed
Life is a test in itself. It's a journey, our destination is far more bigger than this life, it's miniscule
@zohaahmed It seems like everyone feeling the same. I think maybe we all are craving intimacy.
today’s world lacks the real care and love! its all about societal validation, there are times where u can feel the real pure feelings but most if the times, we just crave it
@zohaahmed Honestly, I stopped being on the socials. I needed more real connection not the "look at me!!!! and my perfect life!" connections. I miss livejournal so much. We gave it up for something that turned into something terrible. I still have my livejournal kicking around, but sadly, all of my friends moved onto the socials and never came back...
Welcome
@zohaahmed
Hello and welcome. You will meet many amazing people here who are willing to listen and help. Yes, although I am a 72-year-old female, I have continued to struggle with anxiety and depression my entire life. I have a wonderful loving husband and a wonderful family. In saying that, I go through periods of time when I feel empty, sad and next to tears. I feel haunted by events from my early childhood and growing up with alcoholic parents. If you would like to talk further, please feel free to message me and I will respond as soon as possible.
hi and thank you so much, such talks coming from a place of experiences is what we need here, every life phase is different and experienced advices are always welcomed for me, would love to have a talk❤️
So true@zohaahmed
Its a roller coaster for me. Some days feel just fine. Other days I feel incredible hope like life is about to become magical. And then you're down in the dumps again wondering why everything feels against you.
