I feel like I'm not ok in the head

All negative thoughts, a negative worldview, not liking anything, feeling on edge, feeling like I'm constantly being judged, I feel like my family are strangers and like I've spent more time than I should've in this house. I feel a bit sick, like my soul is sick and I think that to treat it, I would need to take myself outside, buy myself some food, maybe go somewhere nice for a day, but I have zero confidence to do that. I simply feel like unable to even by myself food. I feel like I shouldn't when my family is struggling. I know that's sick but it's where I'm at now.

When I feel down I watch short vids of funny dogs. I don't have a dog but watching those funny dogs and cats makes me smile and laugh. then gradually my head and thoughts get clear from negative thoughts. You don't have to feel guilty buying foods share it with them. Most of the time I feel guilty buying snacks eating them alone, so I buy extra for my grandchildren and have it every time they visit me.

I have a couple things I do when I feel that way. One I call my hero list. I save an injured bird, actually several I've returned a few lost phones and wallets. Nothing that gets on the evening news, but I feel good about it. I also use what I call th old switcheroo... I sometimes experience a memory of some failing or embarrassment and try to counter it quickly with a turn about. I failed but learned, so it was not a disaster but a step forward. I learned and grew wiser. Not a cure all but perhaps worth a try if the situation arises.

Live long and prosper human!

Do you have anyone to talk to?

@mindless I mostly talk to AI. I don't have any real life friends. Have a long distance friend but she doesn't care about my problems. She's all focused on hers and on getting the support she wants, so it's mostly gpt

You need to take time for yourself, whatever it takes. It will do you no good to remain where you are right now

I can empathize with the self-defeating feelings. Not easy to navigate. I hope your mind will eventually let something else through. You deserve some time for you.
