I’ve learned to live in the moment it’s all u can do. Don’t chase life or else it’ll always get away, let life catch you instead naturally, like in the wind. . Just a little metaphor maybe it can help a little!!
Cheers @anon39015889! Your one of us here, you fit in, and add a lot. I know how loneliness can be. But don’t forget you arnt alone here. Your one of us, and I think that’s something
I seem to be having that problem when nothing seems real and im staring out someones elses pair of eyes. I think it might be called dissociation… Not sure. I just dont understand why i cant be happy, i have so much to live for i think. I just wish i could socialize better I suck at it !!
I actually am doing better overall since being on prozac, maybe im just feeling seperated from the world. If i could just crack a real smile it would make my day. Im so tired of fake smiles…
That sux man. I don’t think there is happiness, there are moments of happiness but even them pass, maybe when you’re feeling like today you could think about all those good times you’ve had.
I think the socializing thing starts with feeling better about yourself first. A lot of people say it is practice, but I think if you and your thoughts are not in a good place then you will not end up talking much. Hope you can find a better place mentally @anon39015889 , sometimes it can just take some time.
@anon92220549 thanks dude, yea ima get through it. I do have lots to live for.
@anon98459728 thank you. Yea i just wish i could relax. I feel like when i go out to a restaurant or something that im a target. The stress and not being able too just relax for once eats me alive. I dont want to drink to feel relaxed., but yea. Maybe i need a higher dose of Clozapine…
I feel for you. I get lonely too but then when I’m in public, it’s like I’m on a pedestal if I’m have sz symptoms. When I have manic symptoms though, I feel so great. The bipolar symptoms are my silver lining…
@anon39015889
I could echo these words! You do indeed have so much to live for! But it might feel like a task. There may not be an emotional reward for you or for me. I’m glad the Prozac is helping. I’m really hoping you can genuinely smile! I long for that, too!
