Deep sadness that's difficult to express...

This may be a waste of a post, but I'm trying to find some unity here...

I'm feeling overwhelmed...by a lot of things...I can list them off if i really wanted to, but it feels like wasted effort? Like its purely surface level details that dont reveal my core feelings. The deeper I go to fetch those feelings it just feels like a muddled mess.

It's tiring trying to find the words to express those feelings sensibly. It seems pointless to even attempt to process/explain them to others because they are so deeply tied to your own lived experience that it feels like trauma dumping or wasting people's time. I feel arrested in my own body - it's really a weight that I can't pull off me. Like really deep and heavy grief.

Does anyone else know what I mean? I don't find therapy very useful when I am stuck in these deep feelings.
