I just dont care-Help needed?

[l2elapse]

I am so apathetic in life its starting to scare me. I have seen therapists/counselors and tried to get help even meds. I just do not care about anything in life. If my parents died tomorrow im not even sure I would shed a tear. WTF is wrong with me

[Juturna]

Your definitely not alone with that, sociopath.

[higherdesire]

There is too much in Austin to love for you to be pathetic. get involved bro. find something that stimulates you. I think everyone has gone through a time in life where it didn't seem like anything mattered, it will pass. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. If you don't have the gumption to do the right thing, that is ok, choose the next right thing. Make sense? you can do it (in my arnold voice)

[higherdesire]

CB, what up bro? Bring this man some knowledge will ya?

[dangerous dan]

some people are just weak minded some arent

[l2elapse]

some people are just weak minded some arent

how does me being apathetic make me weak minded?

[BG]

^^^Not true chemicals have alot to do with it.

[Phate]

some people are just weak minded some arent

not even close bro, somebody being suicidal(not saying the OP is) doesn't make them weak minded, in fact being suicidal and still carrying on day to day shows a great deal of will power, only when someone gives into do they show weakness and since the OP has and is currently seeking out help even through these feelings i would say he is very strong minded

[Dont wanna be old]

Well , sorry to see someone so down .

Is everything alright ?

Is there something missing in your life ?





How about that ??

[l2elapse]

I am really confused on what to do. Nothing is seeming to work

[dangerous dan]

worded it wrong...mean you are strong minded some are weak minded, i think things are looked into too much. i think i got it spot on

[dangerous dan]

also how old are you?

[l2elapse]

i am 22

[dangerous dan]

22 could just be a phase, i think things like this could be due to childhood ect. dont agree with chemicals at all, no disrespect to BG

[Phate]

22 could just be a phase, i think things like this could be due to childhood ect. dont agree with chemicals at all, no disrespect to BG

could be alot of things, but at 22, could easily be a hormonal flux(though that's a long one if it is), i know i've gone through times like that where i didn't want to do anything or talk to anyone but it'll pass, force yourself to go hang out with friends and eventually you'll start having fun again, if you don't then you might have moderate depression

[romo6]

I struggle with slight depression,not every day,but some days can be kinda bad.Good luck.

[energizer bunny]

a great deal of things in life can have an effect on your state of mind.....Dangerous Dan...chemicals i.e drugs can most certainly have a massive effect.....so can your job or in my case lack of one....amongst a thousand other things.

x2^^^^^ hanging out with friends could have an impact, geting tht love for people, and if you have that, if its lost im sure youl see the sensitive side....im verry hard to break, iv lost close ones and iv never been in such states

[l2elapse]

I think the biggest problem is ever since I was 16, one bad thing after another happened in my life and I have reached a point in thinking, why should I look for brighter things when bad things keep happening?

[dangerous dan]

i feel what your sayin, i have friends like that youl brighten up may just take time

[TITANIUM]

Bro, your lost right now.

Dumping negative energy, though not done purposely, makes depression worse.

My life sucked when I was at that age.

Therapy with a psychiatrist, that actually cares, will help.

Just takes time.

I think that your post is not weak minded at all.

Takes alot to open up to people like that.

I admire you for doing so.

This forum is excellent place to get ideas and feedback on things.

Most of these members here can relate to you.

And they genuinely seem to care.

I think you took a great step forward by doing so.

It gets better bro, I promise.

HD always has great advice.

He is one of my friends on here, that gives great insight and has great foresight.

Try finding something that you loved to do as a little kid.

Then, take some time off from work, even if it is just a day.

Then , go out and do it.

It's great.

Very therapeutic, and relaxing.

Good luck.

And if you ever feel like posting anything at all, this is the place to do it in.

peace bro

[Iron_Pig]

Seek out a support group in your area its good just to sit down and talk bro I deal with PTSD every day its hard really hard. Like T said if you need to talk SING out bro we got your back.

So find a purpose. What do you like to do? find that and dedicate your life to it. that's the secret to happiness.

have you reached that phase where you start hating everyone and everything? i've been there. i really hated happy people the most. like "are you ****ing happy with ur skateboard running around on the street like that u ****ing **** shit face dick cocksucker bitch?!?!?!?"

hate can be the reason you're feeling like that.

[RangersLTW]

I've seen and been thru alot I am the same way.....no emotions....I can tell you that it only affects other ppl that I know exspecially ppl that I date.....but me personally am not bothered by it.....I don't get mad and I don't cry no matter what happens.......always in a good mood but never truly seem happy......good luck man hope you can break it.......I contribute mine to foolish pride and war

I fully agree..

I fo want to add in any persons life there is going to be ups and down, I have never seen a person just have ups....


What goals do you have?

Where are you in terms of goals in your life?

I mean physical goals, school, private... more over have you done some soal searchin

[ninesecz]

I have brief times like that myself.. sometime I feel like everything I know and love could dissappear and i would just shrug it off. Other times i think about losing my dog and i will cry for an hour.. I am poretty sure I have split personality though. I like to talk to myself and I have actually been told by my GF that i was just talking to myself for 15-20min and did not realize it!

DUDE..... it sounds like you've had a conversation with my wife. She has said that exact same thing. She's been diagnosed manic depresant and the psych thinks it stemmed from her fathers death (post traumatic stress disorder) - she lost a best friend..... then her father..... then her dog..... sh*t just kept going wrong over the coarse of like 4 years.

It's a struggle man..... every single day is a struggle for her. She takes medication but the meds aren't magic pills. Yah gotta get up everyday and make the best of it..... things will get better for you..... just takes time.

~Haz~

[CBGB]

Sit back and relax, think of something you use to love. Something that made you happy, if only for a short time. Something that made you smile. I have been like this during times of my life. What makes me happy is going out in the middle of the woods or at the edge of a creek and sitting. Alone and reflecting. It gives me time to think of the positive things in my life that I lose sight of. You too have great things, you just need a refresher. You'll find them, you just have to take the time.

Good luck

[jbm]

still don't care?

[playboii]

I am really confused on what to do. Nothing is seeming to work

i felt like this when i was taking test & tren and my test levels were too high..i took them back down to 500mg and my sanity came back to me...i would honestly find myself questioning life alot of times...so the question is, are you on a cycle now? if so then that must be it.

I've been there. Some of the times were worse than others. You need to do something that motivates you and makes you happy whether it's a significant other, hobby, or pass time. You should really check out a book called "The Stranger". It's about a man who never gets emotion, and never cares about anything. It a story of him drifting through life with nothing to look forward to. Very inspiring, look into it.

[Tjohn6231]

Hey man, listen to me really closely. Im 33 now, but I had the same thing happen to me in my early 20's.
It got so bad that my mom called the cops to come take a look at me. A long story short.....It ended with a high speed chase, me threatening to take my own life with knife in hand in front of about 12 cops in my moms front yard. It was terrible.
My problem was drugs, and I was staying depressed because I wanted to stop, but couldnt. The cops shouldve shot, and killed me that day. I was a clear threat to them with a weapon, and being violent, but Im still here.
Your situation will pass, but you have to try, and get passed it.
I wont ask you what your problems are, but theres answer to everything.
Also, I shouldve done serious jail time, but I got away with a week in rehab, and a $1000 fine. I still cant figure out how I got off so lightly.
Whether you need to change friends/GF/living situation, or whatever, then you need to take the first step.
Im 33, and I have a house, 2 cars, a wife, and 2 beautiful kids.
If I wouldve ended my life that day, then I wouldnt be here to experience the awesome things that life have to offer.
Stay positive bro......youll pull out of this. Ive been there.

dont agree with chemicals at all, no disrespect to BG

What do you mean by "dont agree with chemicals at all.." ? If you don't agree that chemicals in the brain, i.e.- neurotransmitters have a significant impact on mood and well-being, then you essentially don't agree with modern medicine, which means you should also not agree with things like tylenol, anti-biotics, heart surgery, and chemotherapy.

It bothers me to a great degree to hear people who have never experienced mental illness first hand, or studied biology to a significant degree, to assume that people are able to 'talk themselves out of it.' Neurotransmitters within the brain have an enormous impact on a persons mood and mental well-being. In cases where there is a legitimate chemical deficiency, no amount of therapy, or attempting to talk ones self out of it will ever work. Not enjoying things that once made you happy is not an indication that you don't like those things anymore, but more so that its physically impossible for you to like them without medication to correct the problem.

It's important for you people who are skeptical of others with mental illness, to understand that it is an illness exactly like cancer, the flu, or heart disease. There is a social stigma still attached to things like depression, anxiety, bi-polar, and its quite unfair to these people. People ought to address their own ignorance in this area and do some reading.

To the OP, you need to seek the help of a physician or a therapist. There isn't much the guys on this forum can do for you. Maybe take an online test for depression, it will give you an idea of whether your feelings are legitimate.
