Thanks very much for the responses i really appreciate it.
I do feel a bit stupid at times and try to consistently live by the mantra "there are so many worse of than me etc etc". Sometimes that helps slightly and other times it just doesnt even come close to helping.
I would generally always have been a happy enough person and whatever life put in front of me i dealt with and moved on and at all times tried to keep a smile on my face. I dont know what exactly has triggered this but it is tough going and i wouldnt wish it on my worst enemy. Its getting to the stage now that everyone i meet im envious of as they seem normal and id give anything to have some normality and peace in my head.
In a way i hate writing this as i honestly dont know if im depressed or just going through a bad patch (if it is a bad patch then its as bad as it gets in my head). Its like an intense sadness and crying constantly. Sitting at work now trying to keep going cos what else can i do? Am not particularly keen on going to GP as i would prefer not to be put onto any medication/ antidepressants etc.
I suppose its something i keep hoping will pass itself and that i will bring myself through it.
Its nice to be able to talk to people on here as i have noone else i will talk to about it.
Thanks for the replies
