Why do I feel so down and not happy anymore? I also feel really tired and non-motivated. Is that normal for someone to feel that way?

I have lost interest in life itself ever since my husband was diagnosed with an incurable illness this January.

I know life is a journey and we are all temporary on this earth yet I feel heartbroken.

He had wanted to travel and see many places after his retirement. We travelled a lot last year with my sister and brother in law. But my husband wanted to go on a foreign trip, the possibility of this seems bleak now.

Why cant I breathe when I sleep on my back, I can breathe if im on my side or stomach but I feel uncomfortable since either my neck is twisted or my back is in pain, im physically healthy and my surroundings are clean so whats the problem?

I drag myself to cook and do some daily chores and cleaning the house.

If you are a young person who is facing some small crisis then it's normal to feel as you are feeling temporarily. But you need to motivate yourself and snap out of the above feeling else you may fall into depression.

For the most part of the day I just feel so tired and listless.

I now and then break down. Somehow my eyes just fill with tears. Even as I'm writing this I'm crying.

I feel life is so unfair to good people.

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

Nothing seems worth it anymore.

I will be 60 soon. I am not happy, nothing seems to make me happy and I feel down and low.

The only small light in this whole thing is that we are a little more closer now than we were these many years.

So to answer your question, if you are facing some crisis in your life, health, career or family it's normal to feel as you are feeling especially if you are above 50.

I wish there was some way I could give him some years of my life.
