"I'm just a little flat"

[scardeecat]

I feel like this is slowly becoming my "catch phrase".

I'm either depressed and feel like I might cry for no reason, or I'm stupidly angry for no reason

I don't want to be this sad, angry person anymore. I want to be able to put my anger and sadness in a box and leave it there. I feel so bad, I know I'm hurting people's feelings by not hanging around them, but I don't want to make them feel like they've done something wrong when it's my fault. 

I keep making mistakes at work, each day I mess up things a newbie would know not to do, and I just know I'm getting on everyone's nerves that I keep making these silly mistakes and forgetting things I should already know. 

Anyone else have any tips for this? 

I don't know what else to do.

Hi scardeecat,

Welcome to the forums and thank you for reaching out to us.

The emotions and behaviours you describe could be attributable to a number of different things. Have you talked about this with your GP, perhaps there is a reason that is treatable. Could be things like hormonal imbalance, nutrient deficiency, dysthymia, anxiety, depression. As you can see it can be something simple or something more serious, either way, it is better to know and take steps to treat the cause.

I will be here if you would like to continue this conversation.

Take care,
