hmmm disturbing daydreams??

[Ro-Ro]

hopefully this is on the right board.

i keep sort of fazing out from the world and having sort of day dreams that are always very depressing (normally they end in my death) the thing that scares me is that it make me want for them to happen or do them.
I have very vivid dreams, and often cant really tell what is real or what is a lie i made up in my head.
am i lying to my friends and myself or is it reality.
I just feel very disjointed from life, like alone in a crowd of people and unable to get out of a buble of what my head is saying.

How normal is this. is it just because im down at the moment. Iv been struggling with my emotions for years and every now and then it gets on top of me, and i have long fazes of down time.
is it just a form of minor depression?

I know its quiet commen for people to get "down" and depressed when its winter/autum time. Sometimes its as simple as the body needs some more sugar or a chemical imbalance.Or the darkness makes us weak and tired i dont know how it works exactly. I feel some of the same things at the moment too.... (sorry is my spellings ***** im dyslexic) *Hug*

What Adril is talking about is Seasonal Affective Disorder. It's where due to the lack of light that reaches our eyes in winter, we feel more down and depressed because light stimulates the serotonin in our brain. Decreased amounts of light = decreased serotonin.

I get daydreams like that, normally ones where I've cut my arm really badly, or I'm just doing something that would seriously harm myself. Often I'll daydream of me or someone else that I know dying. Haven't got a clue why, but I hope knowing that someone else does this too makes you feel less alone. Sometimes I have dreams that I can't distinguish from reality.

On a positive note, let's join bubbles =] I can't get out of my bubble either.

Happens to me all the time. I have them about drowning or passing out from blood loss and things like that when i get depressed. They are hard to tell apart sometimes from the real things.
don't know how normal it is, but talking to someone when i feel like that helps.

*joins bubbles*

I get this all the time. I know it's quite disturbing, but it helps to know you're not alone.
