Don't enjoy life like I used to. Don't feel excited about much
Feel like what's the point.,
Threw a load of sentimental stuff out recently and now really really regret this.
Just feel flat

See your GP. It could be hormonal. Get checked out. And if you get a physical all clear, get some counselling.

If you're feeling really low, please speak to the Samaritans.

Have you seen the GP about how you're feeling?

Is there something specific that's sparked this, or have you been gradually feeling worse over time?

Samaritans have before but line always busy when tried this week.
Parent died earlier in year after long illness.
Another recent bereavement.
Partner wanted to leave me few yrs ago but we worked through but I still feel traumatised from then as so unexpected. That was a big blow in my life and changed me as a person and I just can't get back the person I used to be. Just not happy or excited about anything anymore. Pretend to be but feel flat. Chucked aload of sentimental stuff out theirs and mine recently and regret that a lot as did when I wasn't in good mindset.
So much more to say but no point as I could go on and on.
Just not feeling good.

Sorry for your losses. 💐

Do you regret sticking out the relationship after what happened? It's not too late to change your mind if it's irretrievable.

I remember happy feelings of excitement when seeing the sun and ocean and excitement about life but nothing excites me anymore.
My oh is excited about reducing their hrs soon and all the things we are going to do and I just don't feel much anymore about anything.
I used to love trips away but now they feel like a chore.

Have you been to the doctor?

It might be that medication or hormonal therapy would help you. Or they could offer talking therapy or similar.

You've had a rough time.
