I have returned from the Fringe festival for the third time feeling worse than when I left and I wasn’t doing so great when I left. I do not feel rested from my holiday or satisfied with my accomplishments.

I feel like Dr Manhatten all the time, tired of Earth, these people.

Yet I cannot stop believing that I’m the problem. I feel like a square shaped piece for a round hole universe.

I don’t have a purpose to this post. I just needed somewhere to vent. I am tired.

I don’t like myself.

I don’t feel like I am who I was.

I don’t feel like I am who I want to be.

I don’t think I am who I am meant to be.

I don’t like the image of me in other people’s heads.

I do all the things I am supposed to: I eat well, I excerise, I socialise, I surround myself with stimulating and exciting activities and I end up feeling worse than when I started.

I sit in the car not knowing why I would go inside but relieved I no longer have to be at work.

Nothing I used to do brings me joy anymore.

I dream of being washed away by the tide.

@Crusader1089 As a person who has been there...

Give the feeling its proper name: Depression.

There is nothing wrong with asking for help. There is no reason you should suffer in silence. You deserve to feel better.

Please take care of yourself.🌻
