Lack of enthusiasm,feeling of sadness,

2017-05-22 07:33:04
When things are going just the way I had planned, I feel zero enthusiasm and lack of confidence. I do not even understand the reason of sadness or even if I am really sad. I'm going to my dream college in june and it scares the hell out of me thinking I will never get my cheerfulness back. I'm unable to concentrate on things I enjoyed the most earlier, my work, reading, movies. I do not even feel empathy now though I'm very sensitive person. Sometimes I break down for a reason I don't understand and other times I'm least bothered come what may. It's like doing things for the sake of doing.

Many of the things that you said looks like depression. The proper gauging can be done by a psychologist or psychiatrist. One year is a long time and you need to take psychiatric help to begin with and then you can work with CBT psychologist. What happens in session is it is a structured way of managing depression with proper action plan.
Next Steps
Getting out of this might require both med and therapy. See a psychiatrist psychologist online/offline.
Health Tips
This is curable and with proper action plan you can see results in couple of week.
