Don't burn out! Take a short holiday or sabbatical to chill-pill those heart-feels, you deserve to treat yourself well n.n

Go rampaging, you'll feel better.

Scratch that... Sorry.

I know exactly what your feeling, and I sympathize with you. Its a shitty thing to have to endure, feel like you're in a hole that seems to get deeper every time you try to get out of it.

If I may suggest, keep yourself busy with something, take a walk around the block, do something to get your mind off of the issues. It helps cleanse the mind, make you less stressed out. Hang in there buddy. *squeezes*

You're just realising how empty people around you are and yourself included. You can waste time and look for things to keep yourself busy untill you die or look for something to fill that emptiness with.

Sheesh man. I thought it was only at work getting to you! Didn't realize it was affecting everything outside of work. I've been feeling the same exact wat up until my vacation that I told you about and perhaps that is just what you need. D:

For the time being I'd agree with Mrhappy's advice on shorter term solutions.

I'm also here if you need to vent. *squeezes* :(

It sounds like it's doing both. And that's only going to plunge you deeper and deeper into this hole of darkness and withdrawal from social circles and the things you once enjoyed. All you need is an escape, just get away from it all for a couple of days or just a weekend - unplug and unwind with simple pleasures in life such as nature or good food, or traveling.

Burying it all inside of you won't help either - you've got an amazing community surrounding you that is always ready to listen and support you whenever you feel like falling. It's a wasted gift if you don't use - you don't have to hold all the stress, hate, and depression down yourself. We're all here to help pick you up and carry on forward with you, especially me.

You can fill up that hole of darkness by filling it up with things you enjoy, cherish, and love. Always remember that this community is always willing to help fill that hole up and make sure you never fall into it again. *hugs tightly*

I do hope you find a way out. Can I suggest meditation?

Or if you want to relax, watch Carl Sagan's cosmos. I find thst to be enjoyable when I'm down.

I find that it helps me to pour out all my feelings into one detailed post, journal or some other form of expressing yourself. Then either post it somewhere, archive it or destroy it. I think of it as purging all the bad memories and feelings by placing them somewhere not in your mind.

Although as a disclaimer, I'm not too sane myself, so perhaps this method might not work. Still worth a shot, though.

As others have said, hope you find a way to relax and try to de-stress yourself. Need to do something to get away from things once in a while!
