I cry everyday

[strangerstrang]

I cry everyday and I cannot do anything about it. As if there's a dark whole in my chest. Recently it became even worse due to breakup but its been going on for a few years now. I thought I can cope and the reason was partly because I was tired and not satisfied with my life. But sometimes there's no reason, it just comes. Now things got much much worse. Even when Iam around other people all of a sudden I get this feeling of utter sadness and there's nothing that can stop it. Everyday before going to bed this feeling comes and I cry a lot, Im really afraid now. Did anyone experience that? It starts from the chest then goes up and then I just can't stop crying? should I see a psychologist? I don't want to because I cannot be honest about all aspects of my life. I need to solve this problem myself I just don't now how. In the beginning I noticed smoking weed helps a lot to postpone in but now Im quitting and its back again. Please excuse my english. I will be thankful for any comment.

weed makes it much worse sweety. it doesn't get better on it's own unfortunately. i was like that for years. therapy and meds luv. you don't have to disclose all aspects of your life to your counselor. as you gain trust, you'll be able to be disclose more. they're used to it. take care,

 

hugs.

I forgot to mention I was taking meds for one year when it just started. Long ago. Did not help. After that I thought weed is more natural med. Apparently it's not.. I will try to sick help.

Yes, first go to a doctor for a checkup to see if there is anything neurological, metabolic, etc. going on. Then get a referral to a psychologist to discuss your life and lifestyle in general.

 

All medical professionals are bound by law to keep whatever you tell them or whatever they find strictly confidential. Why can't you be honest with them? Smoking weed is self-medicating and masking things, but is it addressing the real or underlying problems?

Please please go get a thorough medical exam done and do not withhold information from your doctor. They can only help you based on what they know and anything you tell them is 100% confidential.

 

Your issues could be physical, such as thyroid, hormonal imbalance, vitamin/mineral deficiency, etc. If you are on birth control, could be a side effect of that.

 

Do not just self medicate with weed, seek real answers. This kind of situation doesn't just happen in the vacuum and is usually not purely psychological. The fact that it's happening in the evening suggests thyroid/hormonal issues. During that time, your body naturally fluctuates and something is going wrong.

I have experienced this. I did research on my symptoms and learned there was a possibility that I was suffering from depression. Which I was, still am but much better ever since I consulted with a professional and began proper treatment. I know that feeling As if there's a dark whole in my chest, to well. The hollowness, the despair. I suggest to speak with a Dr. and describe the symptoms than he or she can better direct you on what course of treatment might help you. I know for me it did wonders, up until of course I also had a break up and things like that can trigger my symptoms which it did, but I jumped on it right away and seeked out professional help. Because it can be scary. I am proud of you strangerstrang for speaking out and having awareness that is the first step, now you can begin to search for the appropriate help and be on your way to a healthier state of mind. It may not happen overnight, but it will happen. We deserve smiles, laughter, joy and inner contentment. Some of us have to fight a little harder but that okay it worth the fight.

don't give up on the meds yet luv, not every pill works for everyone. usually, one has to try a few different ones to find something that works. i didn't benefit from the first med i was on either. a little trial and error, but it goes a long way.

 

it sounds like there are circumstances in your life that fuel this despair, so i hope that you'll find an empathic person to talk them over with and seek practical solutions. it's hard to relax and trust life if there are aspects to it that constantly leave you worried.

 

best wishes, and keep posting if it helps!

I cry a lot because im miserable. My husband lies to me often. Sometimes he confesses and apologizes other times he tries to make me think im crazy.

[strangerstrang]

Im so so sorry to hear that... whenever it comes I try to do something Im so afraid to cry but other times it doesn't help. I end up hating love. I really hope you will feel better.
