Have you ever felt so down and can't figure out the reason?

Question

AmandaYVR · Accepted Answer

No I always know the reasons.
It's almost always an accumulative effect - like one thing you can handle, but when there's randomly suddenly multiples big, unsolvable issues, that's when it really gets too much. That can lead to a downward spiral of thinking. But being proactive and doing things to try and bust up the log jam... that helps sometimes. Passivity is a life stagnator. And when you really can't do anything to improve those issues, just being kind to yourself, taking a break, curling up, and throwing the covers over for a bit, that's important.

I can, I know what to do but can't actually do.
I lost 6 friends recently as I realized they were fake and 1 of my love interest got married to an outrageous woman.
So I'm very very depressed. I feel very alone and undeserving of love. I am speechless and can't do anything. I can't magically make 3 new true friends or find the man of my dreams.

Not down so much but I turn kind of crazy. Things start irritating me more, I get upset out of the blue, etc. It usually happens when someone close to me passes away for the following months. But it's like I don't know what's wrong with me since the type of thoughts that might be bothering me are subconscious and not something I can properly bring to the surface.

Yes & it usually happens when my perception of reality isn't aligning with observed occurrences. So, something would need to be mentally reconfigured, which can be a very painful thing to realize because there can be many implications attached to it. Many with unknown elements.

I just watch nostalgic youtube videos or old cartoons/old movies from my youth on youtube. Cheers me up everytime. Never ending nostalgic content. Especially old movies old toons. And just being appreciate. I'm always happier when i stop and reflect that: hey i ain't homeless or hey i ain't in jail or hey i ain't broke but just low-income. Lol.

FictionalCharacter · Answer

Yes. Depression, stress and anxiety just sneak up on you. Even if you are doing something productive.

I’ve had a couple of panic attacks just randomly when I wasn’t even stressed or depressed. One while driving and another while I was asleep.

So I call my parents about it, or I watch something entertaining on tv, then I probably take a tranquilizer to relax my body for a bit.

On_cloud_wine · Answer

There’s always a reason. I hate to even think that doctors actually prescribe depressants to those who actually have a reason.

exitseven · Answer

Yes. Sometimes it is real depression. I always describe it as having nothing to push against when I get sad. Usually I can channel enough emotion to drive it away. It feels like i am paddling but there is no water to push against/.

myNameIsProfile · Answer

Yeah, plenty of times.

To help deal with it, I watch shounen type anime, sometimes play video games and work on my Business (which is also fun to me, makes me feel like I'm progressing... obviously 😅).

NoLookingAtSoleil · Answer

Yes.
Can't figure out why the Flemish are so shy on the one side, then so noisy and blunt on the other.
The dating rituals here seem bizzare (almost self defeating) to me.
What do I do? Cross the lines and complain about it. Life is too short to be depressed.

Woman1 · Answer

Yes, I have depression and that is my most prominent symptoms, along with exhaustion and the random urge to cry. If it lasts for over a month or you feel yourself thinking about death more than usual I recommend seeing a professional.
