Am I depressed? Or just miserable?

[Anonymous]

I am bored out of my mind during the day because I have nothing to do. I wake up at 7 something a. m. and already wish the day was over.

I get up from my sleep sometimes and just think about the people I hurt, restless and sad. There's this constant feeling of something pricking at my heart. I can't describe it.

I have no real motivation to do anything interesting. I don't want to talk to people. The thought of me going outside and meeting people makes me sad because I don't feel a connection.

Misery leads to depression. Best cure? Get up and bath/shower whatever. Have some breakfast, then go out for a long walk. If you have a few $ or £, go to a cafe and have a coffee. Just sit there listening to the hubbub going on around you. I know it's earwigging, but it can be so amusing. Don't look at people, just listen.

If you want a really good laugh, list to the chatter of young kids. Their innocence and imagination can sometimes be hilarious.

Doesn't seem like depression. You have just fallen into a rut. You don't have to meet people of you don't want to, but find something you find interesting, and do it! :)

I think because of so much free time I'm overthinking and that's causing me to be sad.

Very sad.

Used to happen to me sometimes, back in the day when I was too free because I was unemployed.

You are niether. The moment you start going out more (art museums etc) or going to the gym you will start feeling better almost instantly. You are just bored.
