I feel empty, will it ever go?

Question

Heres the thing, i feel really empty and irritable. I snap at my family easy because i dont want them to see how im really feeling. A bit like hiding my insecurities. I know i should tell someone about the way i feel but i just dont see how it would help.

Well ive been feeling like this for a while, my grandad died and since then ive been feeling weird towards everything, i cant feel really happy about anything anymore :(.

My friends mean so much to me, yet im not feeling all excited about going out and about with them anymore. I broke up with my bf. It just seems like since grandad went everything is going downhill. I have a long summer off and its been too long!! I feel bored senseless. Im not out all the time so ya know!

I cant explain this feeling much, just that im snappy and sad all the time and nothing can take my mind off it!!

Maybe im craving routine?

Answer 1

From what you've described, it sounds like you may be depressed.  Irritability, not feeling social, and not be able to feel happy are all symptoms of depression.  Please go to your doctor to have an evaluation -- it is no fun feeling like this, but counseling and maybe medication can help you feel a lot better.

Answer 2

Your not alone, you should go to the doctor to see if you have depression, i know i should have, i feel a little better when my friend started selling me xanax, but it felt wrong and i still feel depressed, I've been loosing friends since i was a sophomore in high school, one by one and i just got lonelier and i feel like i'm weird now, I started bodybuilding and had something to look forward to everyday because I made new friends there and I am finally looking forward to college and  i feel like I can talk to people again, go see a doctor, talk to your friends about it before you loose them, and find something to do when you feel depressed, excercise worked good for me, maybe it can do the same for you..........

I really hope this helps you just a little bit.

Answer 3

try and do something fun.  break your routine.  do something different.  I broke up with someone also, and I felt zombie ish for the longest time. I felt numb for weeks and months.  I'm finally getting over her and moving on.  take care.

Answer 4

It's called grief.  When something is empty of one thing try filling it up with something else.  Your gran would want life for you because I would think that he cared for you as you cared about him.  Your friends and family want to help but they only can if you are willing to let them.  Even with that, it takes time to heal.

Answer 5

Its part of the grieving process.  I went through the same thing when my boyfriend/peoncia killed hisself.  It gets better over time.  Try to go see a counsler.  The main thing is it will get better with time.

Answer 6

i am sorry about your grandpa. i know that can sure cause you to feel upset and depressed. you have to allow yourself to grieve and the feelings will pass. you can change this around. try exercising this will release any sad endorphins. also do something for yourself. spend a couple of days cleaning the house or your room, re arrange, get a pedi or facial. do something you like. if you have a good family and friends i wouldnt worry about talking to them you might be surprised on how much they can help. try everyday to put a happy face on and tell yourself you can do this. and you will slowly see a difference. you may have hormones off or in need of a medication to get you through. i was feeling that way last year and i just fought as hard as i could to be myself again. it take time and work but you can do it   good luck  

Answer 7

That usually happens when someone in the family dies.

But you have to let it all out to be happy again.

Your keeping it all inside, and so it's growing.

Go talk to a theripest, and try letting it out.
