#12229 - My SO asked to have a break out of the blue. The sudden emotional disconnect has been hard on me and ever since, Ive been having some pretty troubling thoughts. Im not a suicidal person, but some of the things that pop into my head scare me. Part of it is apathy, as though Ive lost the will to care about anything at all. A symptom of this emotional deficit is that I have had no care about my life, my health, and consequences of my actions. Like a bus will drive by and Ill think about what would happen if I stepped in front of it right now. Its probably not an impulse Id act upon, but it just takes one slip of judgment to result in something Im sure Id regret for the rest of my life (if I still have one). I often snap out of this mindset in shock of what Im capable of imagining, only to later find myself slipping into the same dark hole later... Theres a huge stigma about mental health that Id rather not attribute to myself, and so Id rather confess anonymously since I find it to be more therapeutic confiding in strangers rather than friends. I believe Im in an early stage of depression, and while Im still rational Id like to know how if anyone has had similar experiences and what they did to get better. Thanks, UAlberta community
