Ever since Thanksgiving I've been feeling really out of it, like my whole body just feels different. I feel lonely when I'm surrounded by people and I feel completely indifferent to anything that happens. I go out to the movies and dinner or whatever and I feel completely separate from everyone I'm with, as if I occupied a different plane of existence then they them. Take for example last night, we were sitting around smoking weed and the whole time I was high I could only think of going away to be myself. And I did try to get away, I drove around by myself but the whole time I felt even more alone and uncomfortable then I did with them. The only thing that I could think of that was different was the fact that I met this girl on Thanksgiving. I know I don't have any feelings towards her but every time I think of her I get this little pang, as if something really awkward or embarrassing occurred; something I want to forget. She has a boyfriend and I am 100% sure I am not attracted to her, but no matter how hard I think she is the only variable between Wednesday and Friday. Added to all this is my general feeling of nausea, I just want to throw up all the time. I'm thinking of going to see a therapist or a doctor because I don't think I could handle feeling like this for another week.

Try cutting out the weed and alcohol for awhile.

Yea, ditch weed and alcohol for a couple weeks. They have a tendency to fuck with your chemical balances in your body and make you depressed sometimes. You sound a little stressed too, so maybe you should just grab a good book (assuming you read books. If not, some movies or something) and relax for a day or two on your own.

I've been stressed to the max lately (school, new sometimes-hard-to-deal-with job) and I've found that if I do anything along the chemical altering lines, I get really freaked out.

So, I've given up on that for a few days (at least till I'm finished all of my school work). It's already been helping, and having someone to talk to about your problems (friends, family, sig others) is cathartic.

I'd recommend that you do the same. And, if the feelings persist, maybe see a specialist to talk it out. It might be something really simple.

Hope I was of some service.

I know that feeling. Things have been about the same way for me lately. One thing that I do know though is that alcohol, weed, and things like that arent very much of a help. They may make you feel better for a while, but when you come down, the same issues are still there. I do think maybe you should consider seeing a therapist and if there is a friend, or someone that you can talk to, then go to them and explain how you are feeling.

I've been thinking about what the problem could be, and I just can't come up with it. But I'm going to try cutting out all the chemical altering substances and see if that does any good. School isn't hard, I don't have a girlfriend, I don't have a job, and my friends are fine. I just really can't think of anything that could be wrong.

Im sure that will help at least a little bit and it will give you more of a chance to really clear your mind and see if theres some underlieing issue. Myself, I find it hard to ever talk to anyone about my problems. It always makes me feel like I bring others down, which Im sure that I do, so I keep everything inside. Not a good thing I know, and its something that im currently trying to overcome. Please keep me informed on what happens from here and if you start feeling any better.

I tried talking to my friend and I did feel better if for the time being although I don't think he totally comprehended what I was trying to say.
