I don’t know whats up with me (sorry its long)

Lately, ive just had these really off days. Im happy but then i feel really down. I feel like nothing matters anymore, i don’t matter anymore, i feel like just disappearing for some reason. Its not like i have valid reasons to feel this way, my life is decent, its not like im going through things that are horrible. Dealing with my sensitivity is something i go through but it isnt that bad for me, its worse for others who have to deal with me when im like that. When people get angry towards me, it can get me emotional, like really emotional, i started crying just because someone was mad at not just me but others too. Everytime i feel like im getting better at not crying, i end up crying again. Sometimes i feel like crying when nothing is even going on. I guess some of the time its because im overwhelmed, every little noise, movement, touch becomes ten times worse randomly, suddenly im noticing everything minor action going on around me and it generally irritates me. Then i hold in my tears at cry later that night. In my friend group im known as the therapist friend. And i am, im fine being the therapist friend, i get to be the one my friends rely on when they need advice (which they sometimes don’t take) and when they need some comfort or even just someone to listen. And they are there for me even though i rarely do talk about my feelings to them. I feel like such a hypocrite, because i am. I tell my friends that its always best to talk about their feelings, that they shouldn’t see themselves as ugly, that they should love who they are as a person, that it is fine to cry, it is fine to show emotions. Yet, i seem to be bad at following my own advice. I just feel so dull and meaningless and i don’t understand why i feel this way so much. Now i do have my days where i feel great about myself, i recently tried out a new hairstyle, i even tried on dresses for the first time in years. And its not my friends faults but they said my hair would look better if it was a bit different to how it was styled, that the dresses i felt good in for once, made me look odd, only one looked somewhat okay. I don’t know. I just don’t know. If someone read all of this, thank for reading my long rant. :)

There's nothing wrong about being sensitive.
Everyone is sensitive.
What happens when your sensitive you react and then your left with feeling bad about yourself .
All I can share is an experience I have .
When I used to drink and drink a lot I was very sensitive but the drink took away that sensitivity.
Being made a mockery of or you can say being wound up . I took it for years off people and took no notice of it cause the drink and weed was sorting it out. It took away the sensitivity.
As my drinking got heavier ( never known it was ) I went into a total blackness for 6 years ' 3 years drinking and 3 years trying stop drinking ' total of 6 years .
What eventually happened when the drink and weed gave me up I was left with a pyschosis that I had for 3 years towards the end of my drinking and never knew I had it until I came out of it by the grace of God .
But while I was in it for the 3 years my spirit was dead absolutely dead it was . That's was the most frightening experience I ever had but coming back to you from experience, do you know that sensitivity I had with the people I was with as I got sober I realised they were resentments I had ( not them known it was resentments I had ) but that's what came up for me when I got sober was resentments and that's what was blocking my spirit cause I didn't realise how many resentments I had until I saw them on paper.
If people go too far with resentments when your sensitive that's a different one . That's hurt .
Today I'm alive . My spirit is alive than it was never since before .
Do you know the key to it .
I'm gonna fill you .
Don't answer your thoughts inside your head .
Let them go .
Life is full of letting go .
Why people hold onto to them it's a form of self harm and when you harm yourself so much it can give you an identity .
There's also a good thing about that as well .
Why ? It can make you humble .
As from the sensitivity and being the therapist everyone has the sensitivity my friend .
