Capslocked Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I don't know what happened, I was feeling Great, fine, and perfect, but like the last two weeks I've felt like absolute crap. It's hard to laugh, and I have this feeling in my heart that I want to just scream at people for some reason. I don't know what the heck is wrong with me, I can't laugh, my humor is gone, my passion for life is gone... It is really strange. It's like all my energy has left me. So, My question is what the heck is wrong with me? Just some other info too, I've had a lot of work these last two weeks, I'm trying to work up the nerve to ask out this girl, my "friends" all seem to be smoking pot and drinking (I'm not into that), and it seems a lot of bad things have been happening to me. It just feels like I have this demon or something in me that wants to just scream and hit people... Edit, yeah, forgot to mention I'm a junior in highschool. Link to post Share on other sites
autumn leaves Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 could be a general funk, could be major depression, it's hard to tell. if your feelings persist or you start to feel suicidal it's important to seek help from a doc. SSRIs are very commonly used and they help a lot of people. but like i said, give it some time and if you get worse or these feelings persist go to the doc. Link to post Share on other sites
slubberdegullion Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Check out this about Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD for short). It's relatively common, and the most effective treatment is cheap, easy and doesn't mess with your body chemicals: it's light. You can buy full-spectrum bulbs at any Home Depot and make a light box yourself. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Capslocked Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 You know, I have thought of killing myself before, but I never do it because it's A. Stupid B. Wrong C. The cowards way out Sorry for getting a little defensive (I truly am sorry). I don't think it is SAD, I like winter days. I live in Colorado, it is sunny and generally warm in November. I don't know, argh, its just this nagging feeling of doubt and anger. I think it might have something to do along Freudian form of thought. Maybe I should meditate. The truth is I really don't know. Maybe it's one of the life crises from that one Erikson psychologist. Argh, this is really just making me mad as heck. Link to post Share on other sites
Outcast Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 You're a junior in high school. Your body and brain are still developing and your hormones haven't settled yet. Expect different sorts of moods. Expect you won't always feel wonderful but the unpleasant times will pass. Probably the stress of work is getting to you. What you need to do is be sure you are eating well (and that means fruits, vegies, all the 'good' foods), sleeping well, and exercising. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Capslocked Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 I've been trying the last couple things you've mentioned (grapefruit in the morning, broccoli, etc.) I've been getting more sleep, but now I think I know what the problem is, and I will solve it this week.

Outcast Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 If you have problems that cause you stress, it's even more important to take care of yourself because stress is literally poisonous to you. Link to post Share on other sites
