I Am A Downer

Heading to work. Listening to Daughter. Reflecting on how unhappy I am, I've always been. Trying to remember my last genuine moment of joy and the more I do, the more depressed I get.

People tell me to makes changes in order to get out of this mind set. What changes can I make? Do I just up and leave? Should I just abandon this life and try again somewhere else? It won't fix things. I'm always going to be me. My mind is always going to be mine. I'll just be telling the same story in a new location.

You don't have to make changes in your life. unless you have toxic people you need to cut out or you're not happy with it. If everything is fine on the outside, then what you need to change is on the inside. So i guess your way of thinking

@SailorMarz I'm not happy with it. I'm not happy with me. I'm just not happy. It's difficult to explain.

Daughter's music often doesn't help. It's great for depression when you WANT to cry away some of the pressure, but otherwise it's just sad mood food.

@NorthernRoses I know. I can't help listen to them when I need to calm my mind.

abondon this life?
Do you mean what I think you mean?

@Abood3033 Not in this instance, no. The thought has crossed my mind. I've sat at the edge.

I meant more just leaving my.life as it is and starting again somewhere else far away.

Your problems will stay with you . Best to meet them head on. Not knowing what is really wrong could you perhaps pick something to do today to give you a small piece of joy . Even just get s coffee and sit somewhere you can breath for 10 mins to yourself in nature .
