DAE feel psychologically stunned?

[u/DaviLean]

emotionally, mentally, idk. as if you're permanently shocked, paralyzed. like in a "i'm done" way but also just... loopy, I guess? and when the world reminds you that it didn't stop spinning, you just feel... like you're forced to be here but there's no way you can decide anything because you're just frozen.

things stopped making sense a while ago and while you can somewhat interact with some people and find some joy in stuff, it's all very shallow compared to this... shock. you're broken beyond repair.

It's just a sign that you carry many scars at this point, either because of something, someone or just a combination of both.
They say therapy helps, they say antidepressants help. It never did.
I'm just waiting for the day I finally get the eternal rest from all of this.

ngl, same. I've been through stuff and now that I've grown up, most of the time I just let the world around me crumble if it has to. maybe cuz when I was younger holding onto things never deemed itself fruitful. maybe it's a side effect of trauma and dissociating.

2 months of unemployment and living off benefits… crappy Canada OW… does that 🤣🤣🤣

What you're describing sounds kind of like dissociation and yeah, all the time.

Ina way I guess. When good or funny shit happens or I’m blessed with some money out of nowhere then life is good. Bad shit happens as well so I just take the L and move on.

Now what makes me feel what you described is just the same ol repetitiveness. I just know how my typical weekly schedule goes and I’m not expecting much excitement

[u/Glittering-Access614]

Yes. I feel empty, alone, anxious, afraid and unable to make decisions. I have children I’m raising and can barely cope. I force myself to smile and speak in an effort to protect them from whatever is happening with me.

No, sorry
