Suppressing emotions/hearing voices.
Hi All
I was wondering if you can help me. For a very long time, I have always suppressed my emotions said I am fine when I am not, but never really dealt with the thoughts in my head just let them build up. Then I couple of months I thought I was hearing voices and saw my GP about it and was then referred to the Basildon mental health department. (MHU post)
They didn't seem like normal thoughts like in day to day life and really impacted on my life. Can anyone help me? Could this be a part of my mind telling me I need to open up more and let my emotions get out. (Cry, scream, shout, get angry more often) or just remain my usual numb/heartless self/apathetic self.
Please help me out.

Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted.
I know what it's like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can't. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. I tried groups, didn't work out just made my depression a lot worse.

Hey,
Suppressing your emotions isn't healthy for anyone. It's far better to be honest with yourself as keeping things in is like putting a lid on a volcano which continues to simmer until it will end up erupting and spewing lava everywhere and causing a massive mess. So I'd say it's far better to let it out in a healthy way - so, for example, crying is a healthy coping mechanism, screaming into a pillow can help (and won't frighten the neighbours as much) etc. Have you discussed this with the team you've been referred to?

There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: 'This glass is half full'. And then there are those who say: 'This glass is half empty'.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: 'What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!

The thing is I can't cry, occasionally i may cry if I'm pushed too far but generally I don't even look interested/engaged. its almost like a part of my brain is switched off meaning I can't show emotion/flatness. Even though I haven't been on tablets in over a year.
Yet if I do cry, my sh gets 100% worse almost like I cannot cope with it. I mean last week I was watching something on gogglebox about the stand up to cancer and normally i would cry/get upset like the average joe but I didn't even care/ bat an eye lid. i called myself a heartless bastard.

Okay tomorrow I am due to go for an interview for a job, normally i would be quite excited and worried about how it would go, thinking parents will be off my back. They will think I am finally "cured" from Depression. But at the moment im not showing any interest/emotion towards it. I ain't bothered either way.
Am i just a lazy, depressed person who can't be bothered anymore or is my minds way of protecting itself
