Healing from a rut can seem like an almost impossible task, but slowly things will always get better:) Last year I was in one of the worst mental states I've ever been in and felt like I was stuck there. But as time went on, I was able to rebuild my happiness. I hope you can find some comfort in my story

I feeling this right now. NUMB. No drive, no happiness. I do feel my anger which makes it worst. Idk how I’ll get out of this, I miss feeling joy and excitement. Just bought a house and got me and my mom out of an uncomfortable living situation. I can’t even rejoice in my accomplishment. I don’t feel the excitement of having a new home that I can call my own. Any words of encouragement help. I feel very alone in this feeling. Hearing videos like these reminds me I’m not alone in this dilemma.

I can relate to this in a way. I was working so hard and sacrificing so much to help people. To be the person everyone needs, I neglected myself and buried my feelings to the point where I ignored how I felt. When I cried, it didn't feel real--like no matter what I felt, this numbing feeling would occur. I just wanted to feel again. I just felt so isolated from everything, especially myself. So, what happened? I kept trying to do new things, and I reached out to people who may have seemed like strangers, but ultimately, they were there to help me. I often asked myself why I felt like this, was I just weird, was it like this for everyone? As it turned out - no, it's not. It's ok to not be able to comprehend your feelings. However, it is not entirely normal to just feel an emptiness inside. I feel like as humans, we try so hard to be good. To do good. We forget that we are unique and we as individuals are good. We are who we choose to be. So I hope that whatever you are going through gets better and understood. Also, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Each day is an achievement, but it is a choice. It is the rest of your story, who you choose to be.

Hey there I’m really sorry you feel that way. I know that might be overstepping a little, but what you’re describing sounds very much like a depressive episode. I’m a certified psychologist and just wanted to let you know, that there are ways to get out of this feeling. It probably won’t be done from one day to another but one can overcome such an episode. If that might be an option for you (both in terms of your willingness but of course I also don’t know whether you’d have access to it) talking to a therapist would be good place to start. They might guide you on whether you’d benefit from medication or “simply” embark on a CBT journey which you. If that is not a possibility for you I’d recommend to strategically analyze whether there are still things that make you feel something, whether you can pinpoint a starting point and whether there are certain thought patterns that keep coming back again - maybe you can do that with a friend or family member you trust in. It might also be helpful to try “forcing” yourself to do something every day. Whether you start with something as little as stepping outside your door for just a minute every morning or something bigger such as committing to exercise or cook - whatever feels realistic to you. Once that one little thing is established you can consider adding another element. This might take some time and it also might take a while till you feel an effect on you but empirically it has a good probability in improving your symptoms. I feel for you and am wishing you all the best in the world and hope this came off right. Much love from Germany, Ann ❤

@ Thank you Ann! I appreciate you taking the time to share these strategies. I am in therapy, and you are correct I need to force myself to do things, specially outside of my comfort zone… as I tend to isolate. I will keep your words close and use them as inspiration. ❤️ thank you 🙏🏽

@@mercedesRV1983 hello, I’m so sorry I missed your comment, but I’m glad you were able to get some words from Chiara and Ann❤️ I understand how you feel exactly, it can be so discouraging to have such a great accomplishment, but almost feel no emotion towards it. I also get the fear of not knowing when you will ever be excited about anything again. I hope you never give up on getting back to a place where you feel yourself again though. Sometimes it takes a while because it’s such a gradual process. For me, there wasn’t a certain thing that anyone could do or say to make me feel better at that particular moment, it was more of a slow process towards feeling a little bit better over time. I agree with Ann’s suggestions, taking things day to day and making small improvements can really make a big impact over time (along with therapy as well ofc). But I’m so proud of you for what you’ve done for yourself and your family, even if you don’t feel that. You are important and you have really made an impact on the people in your life❤️ I hope you remember that

This was on time! I’m currently going through a rut myself, and if it wasn’t for my therapist, I’d be in bed all day. I have cptsd, anxiety/depression complex so when I’m down, I’m down down. However, after starting to heal my inner child I notice my down down time getting shorter. So now I just tell myself I may be down for a minute, but it’s part of the process. I’ll be okay.

it is absolutely okay to take time to yourself, putting your mental health first is vital before anyone and anything. I resonate with this in so many ways and currently still getting through it but things will be better (: There will definitely be trials and tribulations throughout life but one thing God taught me is to always speak light into your life, its okay to grieve its apart of healing but do your best to keep that optimism within yourself. These hardships will pass and they teach us more about ourselves and opens opportunities for growth and self development. God says the flesh is weak but the spirit is willing! Its not about being perfect but being willing, youre in the right place at the right time with the right events (: Stay faithful and hopeful! So sorry for your loss of your grandma & doggo, I understand how you feel. Thank you for sharing. You are strong Michelle! God bless you, your life’s journey & your loved ones.

okay girl... we lived the same life LOL. the only difference was that i got married and moved out, so i had to keep going. I lost my grandfather and my dog within 2 weeks of each other back in April, and had a falling out with 2 friends. I understand so deeply. I am so sorry you went through it. I feel like now that my wedding is done and I'm finally settled into my new house, I can actually heal... it was very difficult to keep going. But it always works out in the end. I am so happy to see and hear that you are doing better! Thank you for sharing your story with us - I know that in itself can be so difficult to do.

i was going through something like this for about an year when i was a junior in high school...i was a really good student and all of sudden when I was in junior I was just not good enough...also corona was really at peak at that time so i didn't get to meet my friends and family who would cheer me up and help me when I'm struggling ( i don't ask for help...its hard for me to ask for help, its like if they'd notice they'd help me) and so it just went on for about and year and then when new year came i found some youtubers when felt like home ( YOU INCLUDED) and yeah I've been better. Everyone has their own struggles and change of mindset really helped me a lot too.

I am so glad to find this video. I have felt exactly the same. I feel like everything is going wrong in my life, and have started to feel is it Karma? Because it’s been the same feeling, losses and little winnings.. it sucks. I lost my 13 year old dog a few weeks ago and it’s just hit me like a ton of bricks, it was the tipping point after a bad few months. I’m 100% in a rut. I have thankfully found a really good job that I think suits me and my personality, so I have that glimmer of hope that things will start to change for me, but I’m being patient with myself. Thank you so much for sharing… it’s good to know us girls are going through similar things. Don’t give up girls! Stay strong we will win again and get our spark back. ✨

I’m stuck in this exact same situation. The past 1/2 years I was so eager to catch up in high school and work towards the education I deserve, and then from mid 2023 to the beginning of 2024 everything just went downhill. These past few months I’ve felt so drained, doing nothing but lay in bed all day leaving all my goals and ambitions unnourished. Now 2025 is right around the corner and I feel like I’ve wasted this entire year; time that I will never get back. The worst part about being in a rut is that ( at least for me) you don’t even realize how much time has passed. You start to loose your concept of time and it becomes hard to distinguish day and night. Next May-August will mark my last year of HS and I should be graduating. just hope I pull myself together for this last year so that I can move on to the next chapter in my life.

Hey, I have also been in a rut ever since I graduated from high school. The transition from high school to university was rough for me. I literally could not concentrate on my studies because at the time I just looked at postsecondary as an option for people who want to become a doctor, engineer, lawyer etc. As of 2024 I am still in the same position, I just feel so unmotivated to study even though I commit myself to putting effort into my assignments. I was once an active and happy person in school because of all of my friends I got to interact with. I enjoyed studying with my classmates and all the memories that were made during that time. Now that I am currently 20 years old I am slowly taking action on improving myself on a daily basis without any distractions getting in the way. :)😊 I just want you to know that you are not alone in this situation and that it is ok to feel down about things because that is how I feel right now even though I look happy when I am around my friends and family...

Society's got it wrong since forever. We've mastered the earth a long time ago, and we're capable of solving all our problems. The only threat to ourselves is each other. The reason people are miserable is because the mindless race to wealth, power, and status has erased our ability to appreciate what truly matters. The beauty in the little things, making everything we do as meaningful as possible, and having meaningful connections with people, nature, the world around us.

I feel this so much, Last year was the biggest rut of my life, I almost gave up on life multiple times. I was dealing with legal issues, abusive relationships and environments. The most hardest thing was the death of my first cat, losing him felt unruly painful I never cared about anyone in my life as much as him, I truly loved him so losing him felt like the world had just crushed underneath me. While also the fact that i had no dreams and dropped out of grade 11. I felt like i failed my future before i even began the journey to it. Everyday felt like hell but at the same time empty. I was only alive because i was too afraid to die. Now im starting my nursing degree next year, it started out from a place of spite but now i actually found real passion in health. Im on break rn so those negative feelings are coming back I dont like free time, staying busy keeps me sane.

Looking at the realities of young people - one word. Economic privilege. If you had to pay for a roof over your head, food on the table, clothing on your back, medicine and surgery for your illness, you would not have the luxury of being able to sleep and surf all day in your bed. Sorry. Not feeling sorry for you guys.
