Does anyone else ever feel like this

Hi guys, I just wanted to see if anyone ever gets the gets periods where they get mentally so overwhelmed and if so, what helps you feel better? 

I don’t feel sad or low in my mood, I just am finding I can become quite overwhelmed and nervous by my own thoughts and over think easier than usual. I also have less capacity to mask and less desire to socialise.  

I don’t deal well with changes and uncertainties and I’m having quite a few  in my life atm, so that could be playing a role. 

I find I feel so overwhelmed by everything, and even though I don’t feel sad necessarily, if I allow myself to cry for 5 minutes it’s like realise of the anxiety and I feel slightly better. Maybe that also helps as the cry represents me activity accepting how I feel instead of trying to bury it inside and ignoring how I feel, which is a habit I always used to do. 

I hope I made sense and haven’t just rambled! Can anyone else relate to this ? 

Hope everyone is having a great day Blush

  • Hey Fen, yes I can relate to this feeling or mindset. I don't know, I can be happy as can be and then suddenly I get this feeling where I am really overwhelmed and really anxious but then a few weeks later or even days later it just disappears.

    I have never understood it and why I get that feeling or mindset, the isn't a motive or anything.
