I've been there too. I think that deadening is worse than anything else that could happen to you. Once you realize that, you give yourself freedom to do whatever you want because nothing really matters--and then you'll start to feel joy again before you know it. Do something crazy. Don't secondguess yourself. Just do what feels good, no matter what others think.

This is making me paranoid and a sadness that goes beyond sadness, rather a deadness. Its like Iam so serious, cutting down to the source of seriousness. I feel so dead now. I cant seem to fight it. I hate it. But iam afraid soon that I wont even care anyway about doing anything about it. Its like there is no hope though I know there should be, I just dont feel any hope. I have absolutely no direction in life and lack motivation to have one. Whats happening to me? The fear is the only thing is that keeping me alive. Please help me, please!
