[QUOTE=Cypher_09;29621084]Something's going on...I keep crying at [i]really[/i] stupid things... I mean, I cried watching TV (I'm not saying which show :v:) at an important bit a few days ago, now I've just cried watching a music live video at how awesome it sounded... Maybe this is something to do with the new medication I'm on? Maybe it's cause I stopped taking the anti-depressant too? I keep crying at little things like this... :psyduck: Maybe I'm super-sensitive anyway and the medication has been changed to something which doesn't combat that?[/QUOTE] Which show? :v:

We all know you cried at a live music video, a show is no worse. Unless it was MLP or something. If its MLP dont ever tell anybody.
It doesn't matter, I just thought somebody would have known what I meant, or is experiencing something similar. :sigh:
Im sure someone has. I havn't myself, but no doubt that happens to other people in here. I have heard of people doing that before as well.
[QUOTE=Cypher_09;29621463]It doesn't matter, I just thought somebody would have known what I meant, or is experiencing something similar. :sigh:[/QUOTE] I know what you mean, and I'm experiencing it too. Crying at things all the time, to the point where it's just literally impossible to hold it in, no matter how hard you try. Are you experiencing sad-crying or just emotional-crying?

Are you experiencing sad-crying or just emotional-crying?[/QUOTE] Sad is an emotion also, I say over-emotional because it covers every emotion. Sadness, happiness, sometimes I can't contain something silly like "Wow that was amazing", I have to cry about it. I've tried to Google the side effects of what I'm on but they say nothing. :frown: It feels like every emotion I have is magnified tenfold. Today I was sat in the back garden with my best friend, at a free house, in the sun, on reclined deck chairs passing a joint between us. I wanted to cry at how great of a moment this was to me. Then I cried when I was dropping my dog off at my house, because he is really old now, he has cancer, and his back legs aren't supporting him well at all lately. I sat down with him and thought back to when I first got him, he used to sleep in my room with me under my cabin bed, and in the night I would wake up to him stood up with his front paws on the top of the bed (It was high up). Now he sleeps downstairs because he can't get upstairs, and if he does, he falls down. I know he doesn't have long left and it doesn't bare thinking about that he won't be with me for much longer. Then I listened to a song that had absolutely amazing vocals in it, and I cried because of the power and emotion that the voice conveyed. Three times I've cried for three different reasons today. Side note: I'm on Quetiapine (Recently switched from Risperidone [antipsychotic]), Procyclidine (Side effect combater), and I've just stopped Citalopram. I stopped it because, well, I've been forgetting about it really, I'm not supposed to have stopped it. I've just been focusing too much on my new one.

And crying because of how great a moment is isn't a bad thing, either. It shows that you're not taking anything for granted. That's how I am when I stop taking an antidepressant. Just get overly emotional...not necessarily depressed, though. You just feel like a raw nerve all the time. And that's okay. It makes life burn a little brighter.
Thankyou sir :smile:

Oh, Shoupie's a girl? Easy mistake. Sorry :keke:

Thankyou miss
ive been sick for the last 2 weeks with this nasty cough, a fever, and just a head-ache. Its become hard to sleep cause i can't stop coughing, so im in effect sleep deprived. Ive been doing state wide testings and school testing constantly, which has put me on edge. had a shitty birthday between it all to top it off. Has just put me in a perspective to where i just hate everybody, to were i just realize how much of a tool my friend is, or how idiotic people can and will be. How shitty your best friend is in effect. How the girl you've been chasing for a year has only ended in just a stagnant friendship, or how just shit most things are. Ive lost motivation to do things now, im just tired of people and life. I don't like anything, and just generally hate people and everything now. I think ill stay home tomorrow.
I don't really like whining on here, because it makes me feel pathetic, but I guess that's what this thread is here for. I have lost basically all my motivation in life. My grades have gone down drastically from last semester (I got all A's last semester and this semester I'll be lucky to get C's). Every day I feel like my life is never going to go anywhere, and I feel like ending it. I find it hard to believe that I'll ever accomplish the things I want so badly in life. I have no hope that anyone will be able to love me for who I am. I don't see how anyone could see anything in me. I have such low self esteem that I'm literally terrified of sex. I don't really know what to do about any of these problems and I don't have anyone to really help me.
Today I realized that there are people just like me. I think I'd deluded myself into thinking I was the only one, but other people are having problems, too. The same ones I'm having. I guess I've been pretty self-absorbed. But then I calmed down because I realized I wasn't really all that alone. I'm happy I can relate to others with the same problems and maybe help people someday. I don't know if I can now, but maybe someday. I'd help if I could. I really, really hope everyone in this thread can find some way to get at least a little relief. You guys do deserve it, even if you think you don't.
Am I the only one here who has never talked with anyone IRL about their depression (or any feelings in general)?
[QUOTE=sp00ks;29660712]Am I the only one here who has never talked with anyone IRL about their depression (or any feelings in general)?[/QUOTE] I used to keep it a secret, but then I talked about it and now I regret it. [editline]6th May 2011[/editline] Not that you shouldn't talk to anyone, it's just my family being stupid
[QUOTE=sp00ks;29660712]Am I the only one here who has never talked with anyone IRL about their depression (or any feelings in general)?[/QUOTE] I never told any of my high school friends about my depression. Whenever I had a therapy appointment, I just said I was going to the doctor and blamed a weak immune system. It's mostly because kids without many problems in high school tend to not understand what someone with depression is going through. It was both my therapist and my mother who told me not to tell anyone, because they had past experiences of alienation from some friends after speaking out.

I only share my problems with a very small group of close people. It's just no use talking to anyone else because they act uncomfortable or are under the impression that simple things like taekwondo, chocolate, or funny youtube videos will make me feel all better. Feeling misunderstood just contributes to the problem, so I don't really open up to my friends. I'm still holding out for that one person I hope is out there that will completely get me.
[QUOTE=sp00ks;29660712]Am I the only one here who has never talked with anyone IRL about their depression (or any feelings in general)?[/QUOTE]Nah, I pretty much keep it to myself as well. In my case, the reason is that I just don't feel there's anyone I can talk about it to.
[QUOTE=sp00ks;29660712]Am I the only one here who has never talked with anyone IRL about their depression (or any feelings in general)?[/QUOTE] Talking with people expanded my life with several years but also took me further down under. If you can find the right person to talk to about it, it may work for you.
I started smoking weed recreationally but I started smoking cigarettes to deal with the big leering threat of turning 18 and having to start life on my own. I have no funds or backup, I'm pretty fucked, goddamnit now I need another newport just thinking about it.

Theres the obvious health problems, but it's also an expensive habit made even harder when you don't have the funds to pay for them either.
I know, the worse thing about it is I get slight nausea while smoking but it seems to give me clarity and peace. I got one left and I'm gonna do my best to make it my last.
So, I kinda like have a really good life. But there is something missing and sometimes I can be as happy as anyone else, but once in awhile I spiral into a like a horrible depression because I feel so alone. I don't really know any way for fix this either so I don't know, I really don't want to get into this I guess. I just don't know why I'm even posting.
