Emotional Energy I've noticed lately that I have retreated back into myself and lack the energy or enthusiasm to do pretty much anything. I go through these phases; its not exactly depression but close enough to it. Quiet, silence, retreat are all needed things for me. I spend much of my life talking, being active, spending a lot of intellectual and emotional energy in my work. Coming home, there are moments I just want to sink into myself. I don't want to talk, I don't want to be bombarded by sound and life. This is really the reason I don't watch television, or listen to music at home. The world moves very quickly, consuming one's life in a "minute here, a minute there." I know I've made a few people mad at me for this retreat. And yes, it is selfish. But it is my preservation, the way I maintain sanity in a world that cares nothing for the individual. |

I defintely agree. There are many times I feel the same way. I know I'm close to depression and sometimes it just takes all the emotional energy I have to get through it. During these times it is very hard to share yourself. Unfortunately at work I have no choice but to share myself. However, when I'm alone I focus on me and my thoughts. I do a lot of cycling. While cycling it is just me, my bike, and my thoughts. I love these times. They are very important to me and I don't think I could survive without them. Kivrin, do what ever it takes. You can't make anyone else happy or at peace if you are not.
