    I am not feeling myself today, I know it's not like me, I am normally so upbeat & positive about life, but to be quite honest, I feel like shit today, my eyes feel sore & I feel like I want to burst into tears all the time :frowning2:

    I know I need to snap out of it & stop feeling so down, I hate having to post this, as I don't want to drag anybody down with me, reading my depressive thoughts, is not exactly going to brighten anybodies day up :tears:

    Perhaps I need to re-evaluate my life a bit, perhaps it's being alone, that is bringing me down, I don't know, I am sorry if I am not so cheery today, I guess we all have out off days :icon_sad:

    Of course we all have our off days, and that is completely fine :slight_smile: Perhaps watch a funny film or you can resort to funny cat videos on youtube. I generally get a bit down if I'm on my own, so see if you can meet up with a friend or something?

    I'm hope you'll feel better soon :slight_smile:

    Yep, we all have those days. Seeing as you always are so cheery, it must be one of them days. You should feel better tomorrow :grin:

    oh, I will stretch my arms over the Cannal to hug you :slight_smile: Even a sunshine like you can be sad sometimes, that's not a bad thing.

    Sorry to hear that DB...getting the blues happens to the best of us.

    The best thing is to feel this fully, to really explore the shades and nuances of this feeling, and how it changes as the day and night progress. The worse thing is to drown this in a drink and become numb...keep writing, keep feeling, just as you have been here for others over these past months, we are here for you too!

    I agree with Holly. Comedic movies or videos on YouTube always cheer me up whenever I don't feel good. If you really want a good laugh, I suggest watching Yu-Gi-Oh The Abridged Series, haha xD

    I hope you feel better soon (*hug*)

    It's normal to have off days, everyone, no matter how happy they normally are, is going to have an off day so no need to apologise.

    Get through the day, tomorrow is another day, then you can pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back to being you :wink:

    Why don't you try watching something funny? There's always "If you laugh you lose challenge"s on Youtube™. It helps me, and I hope it helps you.

    Oh no! (&&&) I'm pretty sure just about everyone on EC would give you a real hug if they could.
     
  17. Dublinboy, I think most of us would agree that you've done more than enough to make everyone on EC laugh or smile, so you have every right to express that you've had a shit day and that you're in need of a little support. Just try to take it easy, I've also been feeling like this lately, as have many others it seems. There must be something in the water lol but seriously, feel better, rest easy and try to get those good vibes back.

    Hey DB! If it persists for much longer, will you promise to get help?

    Take care!
