Hey, I need to tell you something important, but I find it hard to say in person. Lately, I’ve been feeling really down most of the time. It’s not just normal sadness it feels heavier than that, like I’m tired emotionally and I don’t feel like myself anymore.

I’ve been feeling empty, unmotivated, and sometimes I don’t even understand my own feelings. Things that used to feel normal or easy now feel difficult, and I struggle to focus or enjoy things the way I used to. Even when nothing bad is happening, I still feel low inside.

I think I might be depressed, or at least going through something like that, but I’m not sure. I just know I haven’t been okay for a while. I didn’t really know how to talk about it, but I also don’t want to keep it inside anymore.
