New and upset :(

hi mel.

sometimes we just get sad. negative thoughts must be binned. do you feel it might be the swing of bi-polar. (down) the tears aren't bad, they help, but not all the time. has there been any sudden changes happening around you? or any recent stress or triggers? this may explain it. i am prone to sad periods, regardless of mood change-sometimes we just get sad. it does pass. we are here for you. welcome to the depression forum.

i get the same feeling as karen.

I agree with Karen and Turtle , it maybe just a ( jitters isn't the word ..) feeling have you seen your mom in awhile could this be a ( how do I put this thought ) a way of you not feeling " good " and think family in fl are going to be let down by you ? Im trying to say do you feel like you will not live up to their expectations and are nervous about seeing them. I'm hoping this thought is coming out right. But I think this sadness could be because your going on a trip. (why does it sound backwards ? ) but I get the vibe as others did that your feeling apprehensive( yeah ! I found the word ) about going on the trip. I even get the vibe that this is a long trip for you. Are you flying ? How do you feel about flying? I am terrified of it and have never done it. Ever. Won't ever. I don't think so anyway, I am a heart and soul railroader. There goes me seeing Stonehenge or visiting our family roots in shapensay Orkney . But oh well I was born in this desert it is home lol. It think maybe sometimes I just need to cry and maybe it is just one of those times for you.?
