Is it normal to feel so bad
I don't know what is wrong with me... i have been this way since i can remember, and i cant decide whether everyone feels like this or there's actually wrong with me. I feel this constant frustration on my mind, its like the feeling when you drink way too much coffee and you don't know what to do with yourself... it's fine if i don't come face to face with my thoughts, i distract myself with getting drunk at 10 am, cutting, burning my skin with cigarettes, watching movies, reading or editing collages to perfection over and over again... this feeling can get so strong it makes me want to die. on rare occasions i get to feel normal but its like there's a shadow in the corner of my mind which makes me live in constant fear for my sanity... I really cant describe it, but i get these obsessive morbid thoughts... When i don't feel totally frustrated and obsessed to make things perfect and beautiful, i'm completely depressed... like really depressed not just an expression... i get pain in my chest and stomach, i cant sleep or i sleep for days straight. i have to do coke or literally 10 or more cups of killer coffee just to get the energy to take care of the basic things (personal hygiene, clean my room, fake life, fake emotions, fake smiles, distract myself). is it normal to be this way? i'm so scared
