It's so hard to be motivated for work, family, pretty much anything. I have this kind of "nothing else matters and I don't care attitude." Some days are better than others. Is this normal?

If it's not, I'll join you in the abnormal category.

I was actually doing great for a week, but now I feel worse, if that's possible. I kept trying to convince myself she wasn't the one for me, and list all over her negatives. It's not working :(

It's normal

 

I was in severe depression after my break-up. I forgot the taste of food, the joy of having the wind against my face, having a good nights rest was a distant memory for me. It slowly got better, just having some alone time with some self reflection was really my best partner through my darkest days.

 

*I also think I was having mild psychosis, sometimes hearing voices and seeing weird things when I was really sleep deprived. It was awful

Of course it's normal. Why else do you think all those sad county/blues/opera pieces were written? Because heartbreak is universal.

I cycle from emotional pain and tears to anger to apathy. :eek:

If it weren't for the BU, I'd go see a shrink because otherwise these are symptoms of mental illness. This is some of the worst pain I have ever felt.

I have to try hard to stay professional at work, taking

'breaks" or "walks" :rolleyes: in order to get my emotions back under control. No one knows about the BU, I want to keep it that way.

I went through a few days of extreme anger, none like I've ever felt before. I'm a laid back and super nice guy. My ex thought I was going crazy :eek:
