have you felt you just don't care anymore?

I don't feel that way but I suffer a chronic depression. This will affect my lufe to free and happy... How I handle my situation right now is to focus myself into online earnings. I think your situation must be easy if you ask your partner about the changes in your life

I usually say that. But, in the end still I care. Maybe at the moment I'm mad and angry I could say that but, few minutes or so, when I'm cool down, I will realize that saying and telling myself those things won't help me.

Hi. chiyosan. Yes, I have felt like this before. I also feel like this right now. I was told to have a meeting with my daughter's teacher and I don't really want to talk to her at all. She is just going to be the way that she wants to and I am getting tired of trying to explain myself over and over again. I have just gotten to the point of just not caring anymore at all. A meeting would be great for me to express my concerns, but it really won't do any good because she is stubborn and she won't listen to anything that I have said. She will hear it but she won't take heed to my message to her.

Yeah all of us felt that before. Like you said when there is nothing else we could do it is time to leave and let it be the way it is.. I always had an issues with others. I will try to find ways and if nothing else I could do I think I would just let it go. I don't care anymore.

Yup, I've been in that situation before. The feelings that your all alone, no one care for you, and the feelings that you cannot already continue your life. That's really hard, luckily for me, I had many true friends. They help me rebuild my confidence in life, renew my faith in God. And now, every time I remember my self in that condition, i just smile to my self. I just thinking that I really waste time in that part of my life.

Some situations and some people are like a black hole: they can forever suck the life and energy out of you. When no amount of reason, logic, or effort can make an impact, that's when I go into "don't care" mode. If there is something you strongly believe in and passionate about, I say never give up caring or trying. But when a situation is not worth personally investing in, then don't waste your time caring. Personally, in a very difficult family situation, I decided to give up and don't care anymore about continuing that relationship because the person is so inherently selfish, judgemental, and unwilling to listen to anyone. This family member is damaging and toxic to most everyone she comes in contact with and seems to only be kind when seeking something from someone. This is not a relationship I am willing to engage in, so I have simply discontinued contact. As in Jewel's song, "Life Uncommon": No longer lend your strength to that which you wish to be free from/Fill your life with love and bravery/And you shall lead/A life uncommon.

I think we've all felt that way at times. I suspect it's because of mental or emotional fatigue when dealing with a difficult situation. What is probably happening is that your mind is taking a break from it. I think it makes sense to go with the flow, that is, to just allow yourself to feel that way without guilt for awhile. Sometimes our subconscious minds are working when we don't know it and we may eventually return to the situation with renewed understanding and patience.

Yes...there have been periods of life when I have felt like that. Sometimes letting go actually empowers you more. Standing back and saying..ok...I can;t change this or that, but I can sure change this alot...that is the empowerment. Changing in masses the things that you have control of. I have also found that a small change can equal a great big one in our minds. Something like changing a routine at home can mix things up enough when life seems monotonous or boring. A little time alone can help you appreciate the family or the significant other more. Suggesting new ideas at work can change your outlook when they are used or considered. It's not an easy time when we feel like that..but these times usually pass. Take care.

I am guilty of having felt like this at different times in my life. i am not particularly happy with how i feel about myself at those times. When I find myself facing those kinds of times of despair and not caring, i try to find something that will lift me back up.

Good day to you Chiyosan, Just like you, I have also felt the same. That, when I woke up one day, I feel that I am really exhausted. That, I want to shout out and cry. However, as the days goes by, I tried to pick up again the pieces. That, as the days turn by, my strength should revive again. That I should not give up since the situation that I am going through is part of my learning experience in handling a bigger responsibilities. In that way, I have revive again, but, not too quick, since I need to heal the heartaches and pain inside and out. Nevertheless, in all of these - hearthaches and pains - there is only one thing that I did - and that is pray. Yes, prayer is the best answer. No matter how, no matter what, no matter where, just lift everything to Him. God will surely give you the best answer in His own time.

I think that there are alot of people that are in a relationship that seem to feel the same way no matter what is happening.There are a few times that i have felt like that, but it seems that no sooner we feel that way, things sort there selves out, sometimes for the better sometimes for the worst.

w/ regards to my work, i try to relax even in a few minutes to regain energy. but when it comes to relationships, i try to be alone for few days and go somewhere to unwind.

I have but then i remember that someone has it worse than me

I can somehow relate to that situation every now and then. But I always remind myself or others remind me that everything happens for a reason. It seems like the hardest thing in the world sometimes, that I'm the only one in the world facing whatever problem or issue it is I'm facing at the moment. It feels like I'm stuck, while the rest of the world continues on with daily routines or whatever. The way I deal with that though is.. to just stop for a moment, say a prayer, and try to find the good things to bring me strength and help me get over that hump. Another thing that helps is to surround yourself with positive-thinking family and friends. I hope you feel better soon enough, and resume the happy experiences in your life.
