Me, Myself and I - and I'm Not Sure About I

[Teallaura]

My emotions are all out of whack. I get upset when there's nothing to be upset about and feel hopeless when there's no reason to. Usually, it happens just before my time but this is too long lasting and random.

I dunno - maybe it's nothing. I just need to tell someone - I guess. Some things are getting better, some worse but nothing is really much worse so why do I keep feeling so bad?

My brain and I know to trust God. My heart trusts Him but then goes off into 'the sky is falling' mode.

I don't know how to explain it. That or I really need to sleep.

PM me if you need to talk ok? I understand and have recently been going through some similar things.

Sounds like you're going through a little depression stage, try to think of what may have triggered it. Also, you mentioned you're a little sleep deprived and that could be one of the problems, how about a change in your diet or medications? If it lasts a while you might want to seek a therapist. Anyway, it happens to most people in the world I think but should not be left unchecked.

Hello Teallaura,

I’m a bit scared to say anything to you, having unintentionally misspelled your name and copped your anger on a recent thread. I expect I’m unwelcome but will say a few things anyway from my own experience.

I understand what you’re saying. My own mood has been flat lately too. I've changed a few things lately, and the biggest change I've made is to spend less time online, and at TWeb, and much more time working in my own house and yard. In the past six months of my busy TWeb activity, I've had heaps of real life problems growing bigger and bigger. It's easy to ignore real life by logging in to this website every day. And it's easy to have our emotions connected to or determined by what someone says on a computer screen, right here.

What is productive about arguing and getting upset about so many things in so many threads with people we don’t even know? And our own household goes to crap while we sit at a computer waiting for someone to press our buttons enough for us to reply in anger? Let’s reconnected with real people in the real world, and spend less time with TWeb. That's my plan, and what I've been doing increasingly in recent weeks. I've already greatly reduced my time here and I invite you to do the same Teallaura.

So many things we are escaping from while being online. So many things that can be fixed easily if only we get off the computer and deal with them in real life. Just sharing my experience.

Regards, Deb.

Thanks, everyone. I really appreciate it.

And Deb, I was being sarcastic about the name thing, trying to make a point. The rough and tumble world of debate can get a bit overly muddy - but it doesn't mean I'm actually mad personally. Sorry I gave you the impression that it did.

Since I probably should go to work, I'll get to the rest a bit later - but I really do appreciate all of you.
