    I have no real reason at all to be anxious or depressed. From the outside looking in, I have an easy life, good social life, good friends, no money issues, in a good college course, have great family and no actual worries at all but for some reason I just can't shake the feelings. There is no cause, it just is.

    I probably should have put in something about relationships as well. Forgot that.

    Goddamnit Roquentin! Back to the drawing board! :P:pac:

    Regarding option C, there are rumors of great grandparents having some kind of issues that and the current grandparent definitely having some so that's why I would be of the belief that genetics play a part to some degree.

    Depression isn't rational at all alas. :(

    yea just gettin sick of literally staring at the ceiling all day or sitting in my chair. memories of good times more haunting than anything else. And very alone, even here with the most freedom there's no words that'll do any good. All just breath ye know? It's like on a little dingy sailing at 1cm /hr past all the people in my life and they can't see me. Trapped in myself, kicking and screaming but nothing on the outside.

    I was at an aware lecture where one of the speakers had become depressed due to a brain injury from an accident. Very very sad case as all his doc's said he had no hope of cure.
    At least I know logically , that i've come through depression in the past and would be 99% likely to do so in the future ,(as long as I stay in touch with my doc, and occasionally meet people).

    Have to leave the house tomorrow, in a ball of sweat and panic.
    Literally writing down step by step what I have to do.

    I'm a bit of a nutter so I'd go walking but obviously it's not for everyone.. Have you got any exercise type stuff at home you could use for a while, if that's your thing?

    I hope it does.. Doing something relaxing before you try sleep is better than exercise for most apparently anyway..

    Not great. Bit irrational. Got upset with someone and feel unlistened to.

    A lot of posters seemed unable to sleep recently, I hope you have all caught up a bit since. I'm having my what seems at least weekly attack of loneliness.. I tried getting touch with a few people but it's not working out very well at all. My big problem I think might be how instantly down I am when it enters my head..
