I think that I might have some kind of problem... or maybe it's just stress...

 

Lately I've been acting very weird, out of the ordinary. Sometimes I can be myself or pretty much an annoying prick. I can be kind and nice, or a complete idiot and rush things. I can feel positive and have the desire of finishing up the projects that I'm working and then quickly loose all of that interest and wish I had never started those same projects. I can be happy one moment, then depressed, and so on..

 

I don't know why this keeps happening. Is it because of all of the stress of making a movie? Because the holidays are coming to an end? Because my parents are constantly annoying me? I don't really know. I'm writing this and I don't even know if I should post it. I also haven't sleep much... 

 

Been getting myself into many fights in the internet... or get myself into helping other people..

 

And i was foolish enough to do types of "quiz" online to check this...  :unsure:

 

I've been also killing myself to make this movie happen' after such a long time wanting something like this to actual be done... but I've been slowly killing it... because of this...

 

 

Maybe playing some Five Nights at Freddy's may help... I need some scares...  :wacko:

I suggest trying to calm down and relax a bit, try to get things back together. Its only normal to feel stressed out at times and its best to calm down and take a deep breath. If you feel really stressed even after trying to calm down, I suggest talking to someone you know and hopefully you feel better.

Talking to someone really isn't really an option, especially to someone that I know in real life. People always give me the same type of answers when I try to talk to them that it doesn't help anymore...

NEVER use the Internet to diagnose something like this. Seek professional help if you're really concerned about it.

 

Peace!

Well, if you're a teen it's natural. Many teens get kinda depressed at that age. Hanging out with friends is good I suppose.

Congratulations Marcomax! You are facing the same issues that most people do! Now, how do you solve this? Well, stress is something that all of us get. The thing you need to first do is detect the sources of your stress. Are these sources stoppable? If so, block them out of your life. The less stress the better. If they simply are not then you must accept this and face it head on. The only cure for these things is to simply deal with it head on. But I feel you man, I stress each and every single day and it too kills me. Now, in times like Spring Break, where you have a lot of time to yourself, you will often times find yourself vulnerable to stress, and negative thoughts. Whether these thoughts may be true or not, the only way to combat it is to simply ignore those thoughts. Fill your mind with positive, and ambitious thinking.

 

As for losing interest in projects, etc this too is something that greatly plagues everyone. The lack of commitment. From children, to elderly. From beginner to expert this is something that ALL humans face. We first think of so many great things. Our capacity for knowledge and our potential for greatness is equally  limitless. The problem is, most people get these great idea's yet never follow through. They lack commitment. You've got to commit to things. Finish what you start. 

 

I realize I didn't get to cover everything. I will happily talk to you via PM if you like. Anytime.

 

Cheers,

shit happens dude

doesn't mean somethings wrong with you.

Don't worry about it. I've been feeling pretty similar, lately. Back and forth with the negative and positive.It might be the stress, but you'll get through it.

Well, stress is something that can take over any person, so don't worry, nothing's wrong with you.  My advice is that you just calm down, take a deep breath, and analyze your situation.  Like Aang pointed excellently out, you have to analyze the source of your stress.  I'm sure that you'll be able to get through this!  Most humans go through these phases, so it's completely normal.  Hang in there, Macromax!

I suffer from severe anxiety so I definitely feel you. I'd recommend spending some time with your family watching a movie or something. Interaction with people always helps in situations like this. As much as I don't generally like to take time out of my writing/drawing/reading/gaming time for spending time with people I see everyday, I always feel better afterwords. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Try some transcendental meditation my man. 

I would recommend taking a few days off and just having some you time. Go to the store, buy  two tubes of your favorite ice cream, get your favorite blanket with some comfy pillows, curl up on the couch, and watch your favorite show or movie, and just chill and relax. Or go to the spa and have a you day there. Get a massage, or something. What ever helps you relax and unwind, take a day and do it.

I get bouts of anxiety and depression a lot and stress does not help at all.  Usually for me my stress is homework and projects and if it gets too bad I just kinda put it all off for a moment and relax.  If you can't completely block out the stress you can at least take a break from it.

Try taking a nap, or watch some TV, try talking to someone, or do some relaxing hobby, and just take a break and breathe.

and I'm not sure if Five Nights at Freddy's is relaxing..... if so, carry on

Dude don't worry at all about it. It's completely normal and I feel the exact way. As a teenager, we will get different moods like this due to the stress of parents, school and whatnot. It's all completely normal so try not to get too bent out of shape over it.

As for the project thing, I'm going through almost an exact similar situation. For a school project I had to create a graphic novel. This process has taken me the entire year and I'm still not done. I love to draw and whatnot, but all the time I hate doing it and I never want to do it again. It's completely normal loosing interest or wanting to give up. I met a somewhat famous man who created a graphic novel and one man show called "Dirt" and he told me what when he was making the graphic novel there was so many times that he felt negative and he wanted to call the whole thing off and give up. It's normal to feel this way. You're going to have your ups and downs.

 

As for completing the project, don't worry. It may take longer than you expected, but the best you can do is work for it and chip away as much as you can. If you want to finish it, the best thing I can tell you is to hold on as much as you can, because it's going to be a rough ride sometimes.
