When going through an episode of depression or anxiety, does anyone on here have days where you can't figure out why you are feeling the way you are?  Like you can't even find out if it was a trigger or something else?  I am having one of those days with my depression.  I want to reach out for help but I can't tell people how exactly I am feeling or what is causing it.  So because of that, I just try and bottle up my feelings and pretend I am feeling fine.

I feel like no one understands me.  I just want to lay in bed in shut out the world.  I wish I could find someone to empathize with me and say "I understand because I have been there".  I feel so alone.  I failed the first term of nursing school (my dream job) and now I am still living with my parents even longer.  I should have my life on track by now.  All my friends are getting engaged, married, promotions, new jobs, moving, kids etc.  and I am at home with no independence because I suck at life.
