What Brings You Down The Most?

[Liamslash]

People saying that it's my fault and I can help stuff, it's not that it annoys me. It's that it's more true then I want to admit it and it just makes me sad how I try and deny things but it's my fault.

But at the same time people say things that I obviously can't help or I would have stopped which makes me sad how people think of me. I'm talking about the middle finger car thing

Well, I'm struggling with depression so I'm hella sensitive. Everything brings me down so easily but seeing other people being sad brings me down the most. ヽ( ??`)ノ

 

[seliph]

uuuhhhhhh well my depression sure does trigger my depression

 

[Aquari]

i have a few depressing songs i listen to often, its weird though because i find those songs to be kinda funny but it bums me out after a while

Myself and my family

Being alone for too long definitely triggers me to feel depressed and anxious. I like alone time as an introvert but I don't think it's good for me to live alone... ; v ;

Being broke
When there's nothing to eat in the house and I keep opening the refrigerator thinking something will miraculously be there

As really stupid as it sounds, high school. I've been through so much garbage like social anxiety issues and struggling to learn stuff in high school that it has really affected me as a person. I'm so glad I'm out of it now, but I try not to think about it because it brings me down every single time.

I just have way too much trouble trying to make friends with anyone. Even the few people that have gone out of their way to talk to me I've felt really awkward and nervous talking to to the point where I've sort of just backed out of the conversation and never talked to them again - despite the fact that I am lonely and want to make new friends.

I used to be in a close group of friends, but they all sort of just drifted away from each other and only left me and my best friend who I've also sort of drifted from due to depression and anxiety. It's gotten to the point where I have no plans on going back to them because I have a terrible trend of disappearing for months at a time, reappearing for one or two months, and then disappearing again; and I know they must be getting sick of it or eventually will so I'm just cutting off communications right now so I don't disappoint them any longer and so they can move on and find a better friend than I have been. :/

I can relate to this so much. I want to make new friends as well, but I'm so anxious to talk to anybody outside of my family to the point where I just keep to myself whenever I'm in a new place. I do know that not talking to new people isn't the right thing to do, but I too am just afraid of talking to others and feeling like I said something stupid to them.

It really sucks when you have close friends that drift away from you as time goes on, especially when you're socially anxious or when you feel like you've never felt like a good friend to them. It's like you still want to be friends with them, but with how much stuff you've been through, it always feels like it's too late to say anything to them.

fighting with friends or anyone close to me. :c​

 

[wassop]

when i start thinking about myself for too long

 

[vel]

when people talk badly about me behind my back. I rather you say it to my face and let us correct/change it together, or at least chat me about it. No need to talk behind my back. >.>

Being - or feeling - helpless. Physically, emotionally... it's so draining, just overwhelming. I'm not coping well with this enforced bedrest or with the medical stuff that keeps me confined. I can't get downstairs safely by myself, so everything has to be planned in advance - even to make sure I'll have food in reach while home alone. My long hair (past my hips) had to be cut off as I jusg couldn't wash it anymore.

In general terms, feeling helpless to help someone I love when they're struggling brings me down more than anything, closely followed by feeling helpless watching and reading about current affairs.

[ApolloJusticeAC]

people calling me **** and what not.

[KaydeeKrunk]

my anxiety, it's pretty debilitating.

 

[Rasha]

I'm down all the time because I suffer from severe depression mostly from pms. everyone around me says it's normal but lately I started having those suicidal thoughts that just won't go away

 

[namiieco]

Change is my worst enemy

 

[cherrybombb]

my dad. he doesnt even talk to me unless it to yell at or lecture me and he always ruins my good moods

 

[Soraru]

I really have this resentment towards school and grades.
American school systems do a really good job at making people think they are worth their grade.

When I think about the past. Things that have happened, people that have hurt me, stupid actions I've done, etc. Also my anxiety. It can literally ruin my mood, because I start freaking out over every tiny thing.
