It all started silently... One day I was happy and everything, had my insecurities, my ups and downs, and a lot of fun. I was head over heels for my BF. Then the next day, I didn't feel quite as "in love". I first thought it was just me falling out of love. It started growing. Now I've lost EVERYTHING. Even my insecurities, even envy. Now I usually don't want to see either my friends or my BF. I'm desperate, this isn't me, but it doesn't seem to go away. Now I'm questioning everything, and I just feel I can't be happy. I can't enjoy anything; chocolate, sex, music, dancing, happy movies, friends, BF, NOTHING!!!! I used to be so empathic. It seems like a distant memory, but this started what like 10 days ago? I find no purpose in my goals. I thought of breaking up with my BF, but now I realize it wouldn't help. All of this is really wearing me and others down.
How can I deal? What can I do? I really want my feelings back...!

It was all really sudden. It happened in just a few days.

At least you're empathic enough to recognize your own apathy. But definitely, seek some help.

Are You 'apathetic' or 'depressed'? I have recently been given the old 'thumbs down' by My Doctor who says that I have Clinical Depression.(As if He would know! He actually told Me to give up Nursing and retire!!) I, just like You, spiraled down from the heights of happiness to some place between profound boredom and a total lack of motivation. I found that the only thing that seemed to help Me was by ( and this will sound strange) going through "Answers" looking for questions that I could either answer, relate to or which made Me so angry that I HAD to get My head/heart into synchronization just so as to give a "suitable" reply.
I'm not saying that it will work for You, but give it a shot, what have You got to lose other than a little bit of time?
Good luck! And let Me know how You get on.

If it continues much longer see you doctor. You are exhibiting classic symptoms of depression.

Could you be depressed? Are you on any meds? Could it be your hormones (that time of month)? Maybe you should talk to a doctor?
