Am I having a breakdown...?
Posted by an anonymous user on 6/12/2008 2:34:00 PM
Sometimes I feel I'm heading for a nervous breakdown. I just feel exhausted with life at the moment. Every day is the same - same people, same actions, just the same old thing. I'd love a change, if I were brave enough. I drop hints to people of how I feel on the edge, and how close I am to losing it.
And then I wonder if I subconsciously enjoy it - that feeling of liberation and complete lack of responsibility which comes with going slightly insane for a little while. Nobody will expect anything of me, and I can just get some rest and think about myself for a change.
I once read that having any kind of lucid opinion on the matter is a sign you're not truly mad.
I just wish I knew whether I was genuine or not.

Been there, know that... I have found that volunteering is a great way to shift the focus from self to others. It does wonders for putting things in perspective. And the good thing is that you don't have to commit yourself to do the volunteering regularly, although once you start it kind of happens. Best of all, it helps renew your network of friends and who knows, you may find an opportunity for a better career! Good luck!

I understand what you mean. Your just tired but not the sleepy kind. Do something for your self take a day off and just go shopping go on a walk. I walk alot and thats a nice tuime to put everything in the back kof your head while still thinking about it and just enjoy what ever beauty you can find outside. Everyone has that moment in their life where they just break. I have been through mine and it was not easy nor did i enjoy it. Yes, take a day for your self and just enjoy being the beautiful person i am sure you are!!
