Just that should make you "SNAP OUT of IT"..
I didn't hear you say anything in your posts that sounded like you were going to harm yourself. I am not saying "don't go see a Doctor", but there are other things you can do and possibly it is not necessary to see a Doctor.
One, be logical with yourself. You are aware you're not happy with the way your life is right now. That's the beginning of all therapy... self awareness....
Whether you talk to a Doctor or get any kind of counseling, the focus is to change your feelings about yourself. The number two thing to do to get better is realize you can change your feelings about yourself. I'm sure you've heard things like; "happiness is a choice". Life is all about choices, so start choosing things that will change your feelings. Think of all the counseling sessions you'll get to avoid if you can do this on your own...
I hope you realize, we must laugh at ourselves and I was just injecting a little humor for you to digest...
Vitamin B-12 is very important for a sense of well being. If you were on that and need it and you've stopped taking it, that in and of itself can be at the root of your feeling like you do...
Eating less reduces energy and can give us that blah feeling, but then you might say, well I'm eating less because I'm feeling depressed. Choosing to go eat a good steak or a great seafood dinner does wonders for me...
One thing I see amongst my family and friends is this: Many of them are living for the day "they can do this" or "they can do that" and in the meantime they're just ho-humming along with nothing to celebrate today, just that miraculous time at some future point when they will be happy doing what it is they dream of doing "one day".... NOW is the only reality. We need to celebrate life today, or we'll soon get into a rut and find ourselves old and we haven't enjoyed living...
Floyd Wickman, a Real Estate trainer, and from Michigan by the way once said, but I think he was quoting someone else and I don't remember who, but he said; "Success, is when we can learn to kick our ownselves in the Ass to get going again"....
Considering your own headline "Dare to be Great"... go for it and have a happier today, tomorrow....
Looking at your weightloss stats, you're a role model for others, whether you're aware of it or not... Congratulations and remember that life's circumstances is not our life!
I'll be keeping an eye on ya!
