I don't know if you've realised or not, but sometimes the human mind just decides to go dud in the middle of a trauma or a crisis. It just doesn't respond to anything you try and do, and hence you start to feel bored, or you realise that you can't concentrate on anything you're doing. Nothing feels good anymore, and no matter what, you can't engage yourself in anything long enough to start to enjoy it.
It's a strange phenomenon which makes you go from bad to worse when you need to bring yourself up and running. Strange are the ways... That is the time in which I believe you should not isolate yourself because you feel nothing is good. Isolation has never been the solution for anything, and never will be. You will not be called selfless or brave if you do so either. Simply, you have nothing to gain by doing this. Instead, seek the help of your supports, because they are there for a reason. In psychology we learn the various resources a person undergoing stress can call upon, and at the top of the list comes other people or the 'supports'. They are there to give you a different perspective, one you need to see because when you are miserable, you don't see the happier or better side of anything. Everything seems pointless and worthless (this state shouldn't be mixed up with depression, that's a different thing).
Why am I going through such discussions? Well, partly because I have been through some stress the past few days, with a lot happening in my personal and college life. Things have changed over night and they have thrown things into disarray. I have been disoriented, melancholic and pretty miserable the past few days, which is also the reason I haven't been posting as regularly on The Last Word.
But as they say, everybody's pain is there own, and they should go through it so that they can come out better and wiser. I hope what they is true...
