i thought feeling emotions was a normal thing but i dont think like somedays wanting to just stay in my room forever then going to being all happy is normal
somedays i dont know why im sad and i get really emotional and want to just die but when i think of dying i get so scared and stop being afraid
but i can go weeks without feeling this sadness so is it normal? because i dont know why its like for a long time
Hi @ilovelasagna thank you for sharing!
What you’re describing sounds really exhausting… the unpredictability of it, not knowing when the sadness will hit or why, and then those moments where thoughts of dying come up even if they scare you.
Mood shifts are a normal part of being human. But from what you’re describing, the intensity of wanting to isolate, the emotional swings, and especially the thoughts of dying, that’s something worth taking seriously and talking about. If you have yet to, I would like to encourage you to reach out to someone like a counsellor, doctor or trusted adult.
I also want to let you know that in any case where those suicidal thoughts becomes too overwhelming, you may reach out to:
-SOS @ 1767 or whatsapp to 9151 1767
-Mindline @ 1771 or whatsapp to 6669 1771
-Head down to your nearest a&e or IMH emergency room
