That's basically the core of depression. Sometimes you can't make it go away and have to ride it out. But taking advantage of good days and doing stuff you enjoy that's meaningful to you is the best way to ensure those feelings come less and less. If they dominate your life then it's time to see a doctor for a real illness.

@TyphoidJerry: It's okay.. You don't have to feel sorry for me... I just don't know what to do... I need help.. But I don't know how to get it.. I find it difficult to ask for help... No one I know... Knows this side of me.. Sometimes it slips out a bit when I'm around them.. And I'm devasted to have let them see.. I don't know how I would tell them without mentally breaking down and becoming a heaping mess on the floor..

Its a horrible way to be, like you may not actually exist, a ghost or a shell going through motions of life
LoveIsInTheBlood · 26-30
Yes exactly
In the deep stages of depression yes. Like a real numbness, where you'd rather feel anything than nothing. Only time relieves it.

@Outoforbits: I don't feel I have a purpose.
@LoveIsInTheBlood: Well whats the thing you always think about as you're trying to sleep?, or the thought you always go back to.

Everyone takes it differently I see... Some rather enjoy it.. While others hate it.. Or even just live with it like it's normal..

Yes, I have felt that a lot. Seeing a psychologist and often meeting with friends helped.

Am always numb. So I am pretentious towards feelings from outside but dead inside.

Have had that feeling and miss it at times.
LoveIsInTheBlood · 26-30
Yes some people rather feel nothing... Than the pain of some emotion..
Yes, on a daily basis. I just go with it.
