Why are you depressed at the moment?

Spent the last four days cleaning out the house I lived in for 4 years till recently with my wife and daughter, we seperated a few months back. Four years of my life passed though my hands in four days and straight into a skip...
Didn't keep a single thing, couldn't bear having anything around me that would make me remember anything...
Feel so alone now.

Nooooooooo!!!! Why didn't you donate to charity or something? Or sell on eBay or fleamarkets? Could even get some $$$ out of it??

There's a guy who had a house full of clutter and it was bad feng shui and then a girl helped him out to clean it and sort it and sell it and now they're happily together??

Lonely, but faulty thoughts of incapability. Longing, but stuck. Too much hope for the future, not enough for today.

Depression. And I've decided (realized?) that my biggest problem is weakness. Mostly of the will. Strangely enough, I don't care that I'm depressed and weak willed.

Am I depressed? Bingo!

:rolleyes:

I'm not necessarily depressed at the moment. Thank goodness. But lots of things trigger my depression that can make me turn from feeling really good and upbeat into feeling depressed for days. I guess even a very small thing can trigger it like bumping into a bully from school back then or a family member who bullied you in the past. Just the sight, and even the thought of them, makes me feel bad. I can be quite sensitive and one trigger can do it for me. I guess anything negative (feeling alone at times, unwanted, unappealing, etc) or things that make me worry (staff meetings, social events, etc) even little things that can trigger bad thoughts can make me depressed. Thank goodness though that I don't have to deal with depression today. I do feel sorry for those who are feeling kind of down though at the moment :(

Because I don't feel like me. Or who I'm supposed to be. Because I can't talk to people without feeling anxious or scared or ashamed at what I'm saying. Because I can't think of ANYTHING to say to anyone. I am too scared to go out unless I have to. I'm depressed because I'm even on this site, it shows how far down I've gotten.

My depression is linked to my loneliness and increasing awareness of the fact that I'm just not cut out for this society.

My core beliefs and values conflict with those of modern society. The cars driving past me on the street feel like a convoy of an occupying army. The towers of concrete make me feel like a prisoner. The billboards and advertisements surround me with their deceitful messages. This isn't what I imagined life would be like.

I used to think that I could carve out my own ideal existence, in some untouched corner of the world with that special someone.

Now that I'm 28 I've seen enough of how the world works to realize that my ideal world is not within my reach. I'm trapped, I'm alone in a foreign land and my arms have never and will never wrap around that special someone.

This is not being defeatist, it is being realistic. I don't have the social skills or appearance to attract that "special someone" and I don't have the financial means to carve out the paradise that I wish I could.

So I wake up again in the morning, swallow my meds like a good little consumerist and make the trip again to work and home again. The door shuts, the lights go out and once again I lie alone in bed staring into emptiness.

This is my life. I hate it. That is why I'm depressed.

... Thinking nothing will ever be okay, I'll always be haunted by all that has happened to me ... I'll never escape from my father. He will have messed me up for life and if I ever get married or have kids I will treat them with disrespect like he does or I will have the same behavior/personality as him (his personality is a very vile thing and I fear it'll rub off on me. Or I'll be with a guy like him by accident. Or my kids will be like him.)
That there's nothing to fight for anymore, nothing is gonna be better, I'll always be depressed, I'll never succeed, I'll never pass that GED, I'll never make it in to college ....
Maybe I'm not meant to exist. Depressed that my mom has many physical problems that I worry over her ... I'll never be good at driving or get a license. I'm also sad because I really wanna know what kinda career I want so I can focus on it. And I'm super worried my father is gonna gossip about me/my family (like he does using lies to look innocent and like we're the mean ones) to our new neighbors who I am desperately trying to make friends with (the guy is from NZ, so I'm kinda excited about that. I'm just worried my father is gonna say something insulting to him or make me/my family look bad or like monsters.)

I have a lot on my mind right now that it is swirling around in my head.
Sorry for my pointless crud ... I shouldn't be posting this. You all have better things to do than read my stuff. Sorry.

I'm not that depressed right now,though I do feel very numb/flat.I'm feeling frustrated at my life being so empty but I'm trying to use that frustration to fuel my motivation,and start doing the things I should be doing.

I'm not depressed at the moment.. Although I feel I should be
which is progress... right?
I'm focusing a lot more on little things, and I've removed the standards that others have for me and kept only the ones I have for myself. (I havent lived up to either one, which honestly does depress, though)

Awoke to find the world is still on fire.
I believe that I should try and rest some more.
