I feel so sad and frustrated
I was so frustrated with the changes that happen in my life right now particularly in my work. I don’t feel motivated at all. Don’t get me wrong, I do love my work but I feel that there is something missing now… I am not happy anymore.
Other thing is I miss him so much. I haven’t seen him for a week or so especially when I really need him by my side. I just need more time with him… There is a certain emptiness that I am feeling right now and I know what those are but currently don’t have a solution for it.
I just have to clear my mind so that I can think clearly. I just burst it on here because I don’t feel like talking about this so I decided to write it here…
What about you guys, how do you feel today/lately?

A bit down,too but it's hard to stay sad in summer time. Half an hour in the sun and you start feeling better. Of course,it's hardly possible to smile without a loved one by your side but try to take in small pleasures of life. :)))

I have learned to just take things as they come; sometimes you can change things and make them better. Other times changing things can make it worst. It depend on the situation. I'm not sure what you mean about your guy friend; cause you started out with work and your getting tired of it and not feeling motivated any more. NOt sure what to say about your guy friend. I have finished totally dealing with men period. I have not delt with one in 5yrs now and don't want to. I have wounds that have never healed from a long time ago. Starting way back from high school. I didn't realize that until i see a few people(guys) from back in that time. I didn't know that i was still stuck on stupid from that one time my feelings were hurt and still that hurt lingered on for years not know it until now. So i'm better off alone then to spread my hurt to others. And to be honest about it i like the alone better. At one point i thought that i couldn't be alone but i realize that i like it better. It's just me, myself, and I

Well, I'm actually okay today, kind of sleepy.. My boyfriend just left, well this morning, to drive to Waco. Poor guy has to drive 3 hours, to work 1 1/2 hrs, and then 3 more back to come home to me...
Who's gone, why is he gone? I hope you're doing all right...
Sometimes the motivation comes from what you need in your life...You know you need your job, but maybe you're not being challenged enough, and don't feel as rewarded as before....You could always talk to your supervisors (depending on what you do) you never know, they might think you're perfect to do something else....

Hello There. Yes, you are right... maybe i am not really motivated at all because there is no challenge in my work... or I simply don't like it anymore but I am okay now... I am looking for another work. For now, I would stay here until I can find a job that I really like. Thank you so much for your response. Much Appreciated!

I have been where you currently are my friend.
I can't say I feel it today, but there are days when I ask myself "Could I be doing something more? Something different? Is this what I am supposed to be doing in life?"
I think we all enter those stages and I pray things go better for you. They usually do :o)

I hate life. I hate that I am always in SO much pain, I hate that no one notices or even cares. I left the house until I couldn't take it no more, no one cares what it looks like around herem or even if there are no dishes to eat off of or glasses to drink out of.
I have hated life for SO long. I so wish I could just not wake up when I fall asleep, but I still do.
This feeling never passes. I have had it for years and years. Meds, I can't take them. I can't get any down time.

Hi There Kaysue.
I hope you will feel better soon. Please don't hate your life, we just happen to have our ups and downs. Today, I am in the "down" side of my life but I know it will be better soon.
I don't know what are the right words to say to make you feel better... to look positive in life... but all I can say is.. we are still here in this world because we still do have a chance to make our life better... :)
I hope we will feel better soon. Take care.

I haven't huge out with any of my friends in a few weeks and I just really need to get out but its hard because i don't have a car and they are always busy with work.

Yes, I will be okay soon. I just really need to unwind. I feel the same way in which I can't think clearly because I am very tired as well. Hopefully, we will clear our minds soon. Thank you!

I have felt really well just lately, the weather has been wonderful, sunny, warm and springlike and that has boosted my spirits a lot. I sometimes get like you, well in fact I get a lot like you do, usually for me it is when I try out new ideas that I want to do and they always seem to fail, that is what makes me frustrated!! I hope you feel happier soon.

i am very down lately and very sad for many reasons. i am not giving up but plugging along and trying to make myself feel better. part of doing that is being productive so i have gotten alot done today and wish i could do more especially when it comes to earning more money from home. my son will cheer me up when is i see his beautiful face after school. he is a doll and the one thing that keeps me going each day.

It's funny because I'm generally a very happy and outgoing person but this week has been rainy and is making me ache and hurt all over. This puts me in a very bad mood. I'm feeling tired and crabby. I'm hoping it will be sunny tomorrow so that I can get up and get out a little bit. I need to regenerate a bit.

Yes, I think this week is not really a good week for me too. Sometimes there is this moment that we are in a very bad mood. Hopefully we will be okay soon. Thank you!

At this very moment jes. I feel great, I have just take n my breakfast and makes me feel I am very ready to face my day! When I was working before, 5 years in my workplace, I feel the same way, I love my work but started to lose interest in it, it was because all my close friends resigned and started to get another job and other just went abroad! It was summer that time, so, without any plan I was just submitting application to another company and in short, i was hired! I left my previous workplace being a regular employee and took the risk for the new one! I was very glad since the new environment brings so much happiness within, nice people, nice environment and I feel that I have less sin compared to the other! LOL
For you, maybe you need to have some recreation this time especially you have not seen your BF, you just miss him! Hopefully, this time, you're feeling better now!

Hi Jez, sorry to see a bubbly, cheerful girl like you down in the dumps today. Well, look at the bright side. He (?) will be back, right? :) And you still love your job, right?
Another not-so-pleasant way to getting out of the dumps is to think of all the unfortunates in this world. This method works for me!
Right now, am ok, as usual, actually!! Feeling slightly irritated with wireflame (one of the forums I am in!) Otherwise I am fine and at peace with the world!
Cheers!

I feel good today. I dont have to go to work-whoooooo lets party-LOL
Work is boring for me-no challege unless I get a bunch of customers and try to hurry and rush them out the door. Most days I'd rather not have any customers-just dont feel like smiling and say how are you... I need a raise and a promotion-LOL
Hugs to Jes your a sweet lady. I hope you can get what you need. Does your guy call you or send you an email? How come you havent seen him all week? If you want to see him more get married-LOL

Depressed is the right word for what I feel.
I felt that the whole word has crashed over me and I really don't know what to do. I just got lucky that I have my daughter beside me to cheer me up even for awhile but Im still depressed upon seeing her coz I don't know until when I'll be with her. to think that she's so young.
