Depression Understood Forums

I'm sitting here, looking at the posts thats all around me. Reading them, checking them like I'm supposed to. Some of them going back to the beggining of the thread just to read, and see whats happened. And I'm finding more and more that I've just been going through the motions for quite a while now. Nothing really has sunk in. My short term memory seems to be really short term. And I just feel out of touch with life, my surroundings, the people around me. I'm still stuck. Can't go back, but not quite ready to go forward. Yet its hard to realize how much I've been missing, when I didn't even realize I was missing anything. Maybe I'm slowly at times coming back to life again. I dont know. I just know the disconnected feeling isn't an enjoyable one.

Yeah, that disconnected feeling is a pain in the neck.... Just from depression & other ills, I was there where you are.... Maybe I still am there.....

Continue to give yourself "you" time & lots of love. I think you will start rolling along again! It may not be right now, but it will come at some point. The pain may still be there or the emptiness or whatever feeling, but I think with time, it will be a little more manageable.

Give yourself more time!! It took me 10 years to deal with the loss of a loved one. For a friend of mine whom I had loved, but who died while we were still in high school, it did haunt me for close to 10 yrs.... For those 2 people, I have still been unable to visit them--like I had wanted. I still love them & just keep them in my heart.

You will make it!! Also, I am rooting for ya! ^_^ Hang in there, ya!!?

Hugs for Holly!

I very much understand the detachment that you're mentioning... as I'm experiencing the same thing right now.

I'm on the brink of getting better - but without help I will fall back into being completely....

Mechanical.

Is that the word that you think would best describe how you're feeling?
