That feeling you get when the sadness hits

I can have a great day or a laugh and then that sadness now and then creeps in. It happens especially when I'm tired or haven't slept good. I try to keep myself busy but there are times I just get hit with this feeling. People bring up things from the past not all bad but I start to feel sad and want to cry. I feel like it doesn't matter how good you try to be, people always judge you.

I would just like to feel like me again all the time. Be strong and do what I do best and that's be me. I want to continue to try and be a good person and have my faith. This mood that washes over me, I can't even explain fully what it feels like. It just brings sadness to me. I can't seem to cry either and I just want to let it out.

    Dear Hope, I know exactly what you mean. I had a sad day yesterday, felt no hope at all. Tried to keep busy, but it stays with you, crying is a great release but I can't either. I think it is the Sertraline, numbs it. Hang in

      Hi Lorraine,

      Thank you. I think you're right, it could be the Sertraline. It does stay with us but we need to stay strong. I hope things start to calm down for you. I hope soon we will be back to our happy selves.

    You are a good person and do keep your faith. Try Hynotherapy to help with the historic things that maybe cause sadness. Hypnotherapists are a gift from whichever God you choose to have faith in so use them.

    All the best and remember that great day and the laughs.

      Thank you Philip, I have been looking into doing Hypnotherapy. My family, friends and faith in God has kept me to remain as strong as I can be. I try to remind myself of that poem Footprints in the sand. "The times you have seen only one set of footprints is where I carried you" x

    Hope, I know what you mean. I think we all have moments like that. The unspeakable sadness that washes over you but you are even tired and sad of being sad. Like you have ten years worth of tears that you've been carrying in your soul. But, you are not alone. I think you are like me, a Believer. Keep the Faith, God is always with us. And remember Paul and three times he came to God asking Him to remove the thorn in his flesh and God said, My Grace is sufficient; my power made perfect in weakness. So when we are weak, we are strong. 

    Never forget that. He loves us. Xx. May be bless you and give you peace.

      Thank you GodsServant. It is the love of Family and my Faith that keeps me going. I do get good days and try to enjoy them. On my off days I remember the good days and combat the negativity with praying. God bless xx
