The blahs.........

[Tiana_Ecarias]

Ever get that feeling where you aren't depressed, but not happy eityher? You just want to sit quietly and draw, read, write, or just day dream in a little corner off away from everybody?

I've been having that feeling for the past week, and it's really starting to bug me. Only cause I know where that leads to for me, and I DON'T want to go that way.

So, has any one felt like that, or feeling like that right now?

Hi Tiana
yeah i know the blah feeling very well
its usually the first step on the slippery slope down to depression

when i have them i have to force myself to go out and do things and sit and reconnect with mother nature
go out with friends who make u laugh etc

i usually dont feel like doing it, and it make take 2 or 10 different activites till one finally breaks the blahs, but if i dont do it, i end up back on prozac - not my favourite drug thanks!

Every weekday, from about 8 a.m. to a little after 4 p.m... :D

Well if you can't shake it I think it can be part of depression in itself.

When you don't feel like getting out of bed, out of the house, going out, seeing friends, or doing anything, well I think it's normal to have some time like that - a few days, a week even (and for some people, in winter, it gets really bad, just because of the weather).

But then, if you can't shake it for awhile it might be time to see a doctor.

I get the blah's almost regularly. I'm a mostly solitary person who would rather be in her nice quiet home reading a book, doing some drawings or whatever. My problem though is that it hasn't been a 'nice quiet home' for about 4 years now. My little girl is far from solitary and loves to talk. Not to mention that you have to join in on everything she does! Thakfully she's starting to understand that sometimes mommy just likes a bit of quiet.

I've never worried that it would lead to depression. I'm too much of an optimist for that. There will be days I get the blah's and there will be days when I'm quite happy to join my friends for a night out at the club.

and one a side note (just because I was looking for one just then), I need a shrug smilie!
