Venting emotions fluctuating

[doloris988]

sometimes it feels like i'm so functional and i can be so productive and then i break down and i feel such a wide range of emotions i hurt myself i make brash decisions and then i can jump to being completely depressed and not wanting to move or get out of bed for days it feels so disabling because i cant plan for anything

Have you seen a therapist for that? That sounds exhausting

i tried therapy back in early 2024 and the experience was overall okay, but i stopped cause of a mix of not really trusting them and the feelings of being too depressed or feeling too functional for therapy made it really hard to find a reason to keep going

I get what you mean having to wake up to see them can be exhausting when you're actively experiencing a depression episode but if you can afford it, it wouldn't hurt to try it again you know? You can even do it online or over the phone.

Does it make you feel like a slave to your mental state? That's how I usually describe it. I have bipolar disorder, mood swings are very debilitating and I'm sorry that you have them as well. It's so hard to just live life, and it's hard to maintain relationships with most people.

sorry didnt mean to like that. the opposite in fact. Its a flip response for a suicide site and therapists are almost all useless.
