When you feel hopeless how do you express it?

[Anonymous]

Some people never go outside.
Some people can't say inside.
Some people sing sad songs.
Some people listen to them all day long.
Some rage.
Some cut.
Some burn.
Some seethe.
Some hate.
Some sex.
Some love.
Some smoke weed.

You?

I refuse to come out of my room and I listen to sad music and wallow. Maybe cry if it's bad. Write in my journal. When I feel a little bit better, enough that I can articulate what's wrong and make sense, I'll text one of my friends maybe or my boyfriend, or call my Mum. I've pulled out my own hair before but I respond like that more to guilt..

I check my thinking pattern for any cognitive distortions. There are 10 forms of cognitive distortions which cause many, if not all, of our depressed states.

I usually smoke weed and write poems. Sometimes I take a walk and listen to music.

Sometimes I start political revolutions.

Go for a walk around my neighborhood. It's usually quiet around my neighborhood.

I lie to myself & I write shit in my mother tongue.

I become withdrawn and pensive.

I cry or work out, it depends.

Kill something.
