Today is one of those days. I have not felt like doing anything. I have simply sat at one place and stared at the wall, trying to blank out my mind. Maybe I have also stared at my computer screen, unseeing. Thinking, thinking, thinking. The whys in our life don't let us live. Whenever I had such phases, books helped me out of it. This time, I have not been able to reach out for any book. I simply stand in front of my bookshelves and walk away from it after a while.
I even went out for a few hours but even then my mind was not in it. I wanted to get back and be on my own. Now that I am on my own, I seem to be more troubled than I was before. I am writing poetry. That's about the only good thing about this state. I won't call it depression. Because it is not going to last more than few more hours. Until then, I suppose I will dwell in self pity!
Any help from anyone? I have tried to listen to music, watch a movie, read blog posts, gone out, even did some cooking, solved math puzzles and wrote poetry. What else am I supposed to do?
Sorry that you're feeling down today. I know the feeling well. I think that's one of the reasons I have so many hobbies - when I'm down in the dumps, I can always find a hobby (or one of my collections) to concentrate on and that usually lifts me up after a while. Hope you find something to make things a little brighter soon!

I hope you can find something to give you a little comfort soon.
ReplyDeleteI normally like to spend a lot of time alone, but when those times come to me I've found that being around people really helps.
ReplyDeleteI also play my flute when I'm in those moods. It helps me dump out some emotion without having to put things into words - kind of cathartic.
I hope you bounce back soon!
I am feeling the same but I am sure it is because I am overwelmed with life, work, personal obligations and responsibilities etc. I actually think for the 1st time in my life I may be depressed and it is killing me to embrace that.
ReplyDeleteI think breathing in the fresh air should help and exercise too.

Try visiting the elderly. Do you have an older relayive who could stand a little tea and company. A short visit to take you out of yourself. Maybe a neighbor. Sometime our hobbies are poor substitutes for real human contact.
