Is it just me?.. I can't get into this tonight - Just feeling ultra low and lacking enthusiasm. Am I no fun?

Question

I can't explain it, but I just can't get into the groove tonight. I've been feeling on an all-time low.

It could be that Summer's nearly over, or the events of earlier this year.

I just feel like crawling back into the dark and giving up - and that's just not me. I'm normally a knockabout clown who can't keep a straight face.

I've been through a fair bit this year, and have a consultation with my cardiologist, week after next. I'm not looking forward to that. I just don't do depression that well, and I have to confess that I'm not looking forward to Winter.

The trouble is, whenever I try to join in with folks, they just 'seem' to evaporate, one or two at first, then 'en-masse'. It's like I'm diseased or something - I just don't get it.

Is it me? Or am I just misinterpreting things?

Answer 1

Each and every event in our lives makes us change either in the positive or negative.  It seems like its affecting you negatively but don't let it. I believe in every negative there is a positive its up for us to see it and make it positive. Don't study anyone, those who disappear on you is not even worth being in your presence you are one of a kind no matter what your situation maybe. There would be someone out there but you must not be afraid to love trust or just simply let your guard down

No its not you we all have our moods and you are just misinterpreting things.

Answer 2

You probably aren't connecting with the people around you. For four years I was in an advanced program at school, and besides the level of academics, I had nothing in common with the other geeksters. Seek out new friends or give advice over the internet (yay Y!A) and go to a place where people like you would most likely go. Socializing with people who you don't like and don't like you is pointless.

Answer 3

Thank you, you have just decribed my situation !! I honestly don't know, am not in the mood for anything, maybe we can just talk about you problems in e-mail or something. maybe you just need to open up.

Answer 4

Mm,i think it hits you harder at times if you're not prone to getting down alot,,i tend to be like that,make a joke of everything,hope and optimism,hate feeling sorry for myself but when things do mount up and get me down,i get right down till i snap out of it.

I think your reading too much into things,,when things are going fine you don't tend to look for signs,don't need to but when you're down it's easy to see problems where they aren't

Just keep going - you'll know that yourself,it will pass !!

This is incredibly common in young people.You enjoy something again and again and then you one day you feel empty with that experience.You are going out too much,or doing stuff on a too repetative basis.A new lifestyle or experience will give you a sense of greater fulfilment.People who are knock about clowns are more prone to your feelings.Do sports,go to the pub less,get some additional,but different friends.Start to enjoy listening,rather than entertaining.But the bottom line is it is very common as you are constantly redefining your life and experiences due to you being a youngster.

l have one holiday per year,and it is always in winter and south of the equater.You get off the plane and feel like you've cheated nature,as all the flowers are out and it's mid summer.When l get back the days are lengthening and my batteries are re-generated.South Afica,Australia,NZ,Argentina and the west indies...go for it and take a swim in warm waters in January.Goodnight,l'm off to bed

Answer 6

Me too.  But I know the reason  -  I have a tax form to complete and I just hate doing that job, and have put it off and off, but the day is here when I just have to do it, and I can't summon up any enthusiasm.  But I know I'll feel a whole lot better when it is done and dusted.  Now, to get started .... maybe later  ....I absolutely must ....  maybe later   .....  better go do it.
