I feel sad. I just dont know how to deal with it right now. I try to hide it.

I'm so exhausted of trying to fit in. I'm tired of people judging me. I want to be different sometimes. I want to have gotten straight A's or to have more money. I want to not get overwhelmed by everything. I want to be "normal" sometimes. I want to not go nonverbal or to not need 2 pills a day.

am sorry your sad , many peoplle get something called seasonal affective disorder...when the days get short and the winter comes . it is problematic. Have found often finding things you have used in the past that you have interests in , can provide a needed distraction to get your mind off of sadness making things . Maybe try to rember things that caused you to smiles. Sometimes something as simple as having enough food in you . can help. And give you alittle distraction.
Being on here can even give that little distraction ?

I'm sorry that you are going through so much difficulty right now. Are there any people you can rely on? It's good not to be alone. If you have any way of joining in community activities maybe try that. I'm trying to volunteer for a nearby garden, something outside is always good. Also idk if you are but don't beat yourself up for being sad. I hope you find what can make you feel better.

I'm taking seven pills a day. I'd rather not be taking seven, but I would not be here typing this if I weren't taking so many pills.

Am certainly not fond of taking pills .. before was on lots of them .. them after Covid stopped taking anything but the meds for Covid treatment. Feel better these days . But my Covid hospitalization was a very close call .

i'm sorry Crystal, that you are feeling bad. this is a tough world to live in. you can at least take some cold comfort from knowing you have many others travelling the same road with you, here. 21 years of "fitting in" [never actually happened, i was fooling myself] just about killed me. now as a hermit i at least am finally in my element.

I think I have given up on worrying about what other people think about or if they judge me. I've little empathy, and going thru the systemizing to determine if there is some truth to it, it's just not worth the effort/stress, unless they can hurt you. I decide where to spent my focus, if that is possible.

Dark chocolate helps me.
