hi everyone, I'm 23 and I've had depression and anxiety since I was 16/17 I've been recently diagnosed with personality disorder and schizophrenia. For about a year now I've slowly lost interest in everything I used to love, I don't go and see my family or friends I barely go out I just feel like I'm existing not living. 

Recently i lost my cat he was only 1 and he was hit by a car and died on impact at the back of my house a day before I would of had him a year, he was my best friend and when I was having a bad day he'd know and come and cuddle me 😢😢.

then two days later I lost my great uncle who was like a grandad to me.

i just feel like I'm in a rut and can't get out of it. I'm on pretty strong tablets but I kinda feel the same. 

Anyone else feel like there going round in circles?

    Hey I am so sorry about your poor cat.  Mine is 21 months old now and I dread this happening to him.   Despite being done he does wander quite a lot.  

    I am sorry too about your Grandad.  Allow yourself to feel very sad and down coz even someone without any mental health issues would react the same and need time to recover a bit from their sad losses.   Don't try and be stong and brave - you need to grieve and to cry if you want too. 

    Are you under a mental health team?  Or having any counselling? If not maybe you should be so see your doctor.  x
