I have noticed that my mood is worsening,

Bodhisattva- neil

Good evening,

I have noticed that my mood is worsening, I tend to switch between two states of mind. I am either organised, functioning and with a peaceful outlook or disorganised, non functioning and not at peace, I find these periods of time extremely distressing, I have s nasty habit of researching the internet for information on partial hangings. It’s become an obsession, I get relief from lining up stuff in the kitchen, doing this can be soothing, but very time consuming l

i would be interested to know if anyone else swings through similar cycles, and what do you do in search of relief.

  • Hi- I can somewhat relate to this- I am in a state of extreme burnout and really not able to cope anymore (essentially just in tears, not sleeping, unable to do even the simplest tasks or activities let alone think...) but then when I was still at work doing things I can snap into this hyperfocused mode, where I am very focused on the task, though unlike when I am feeling better, my mind feels blank. It's almost a trance like state. And as soon as something interupts this or  I take a break, I just collapse again... I think for me I need to properly recuperate and rest and recover from burnout to remedy this...

    Hi Ann.  I am sorry you find yourself in that no man's land - I know how bleak it can feel there.  How long have you endured the void for this far?  It is good that you are here in this place and (hopefully) getting some solace as a result.  Just wanted to reassure you that I managed to crawl out of my profound funk - different - but functional enough.  Keep calm and keep the faith.

    All the best.
