Hi everyone,
I'm sure many have you here have felt that since your anxiety or depression started that you have had a dark cloud hanging over you. It feels like my world has been tinted grey. The world just isn't like it used to be, it is a dark strange place now.
I just wanted to ask, does this ever go away?
I have got my anxiety under a lot more control recently, I have days where I can finally relax after months of non stop severe anxiety. I have forced myself to start a job and its early days but it is going ok, apart from the dark cloud which i try and ignore.
The thing is no matter how anxiety free I am or no matter how many brief moments of happiness or laughter or moments where I feel really relaxed, I still have that dark cloud there hanging over me, my world is still tinted grey and nothing is bright happy and normal like it used to be.
I really feel I am finally getting somewhere with my anxiety but when I think about it and still feel this dark cloud there it scares me and makes me feel really down. Its like my brain has been damaged from the mental breakdown/severe anxiety I had for the past year and I don't know if these feelings will ever go shift.
Just wanted to ask does anyone else feel like this and is there anyone who has been through this stuff and come out the other side to truly feel happy and normal again without the dark cloud/memory of anxiety hanging over you forever?
