I have had that too - since childhood. Mine is a weird sadness and a kind of nostalgia that's hard to put into words. Very unsettling, and it happens randomly. My therapist told me it's a by-product of depression and anxiety. For most of my life, I was unaware of those issues lurking beneath the surface.

I get random intense feelings of shame and a deep disgusting feeling. It sorta feels like I’m naked in front of a large crowd and they’re all laughing at me. It only lasts like 30 seconds but it’s intense. I can feel it in my chest and shoulders.

It sort of reminds me of D-MER. Even if you’ve never nursed before, when I briefly had it, it felt literally the same.

It’s a homesick feeling even when you are home, or a feeling of missing someone but you don’t know who it is. I always had this, I like to believe I miss our true home in heaven

Is it relatively brief? Like suddenly, it floods your being and it's the most intense sadness anyone could ever feel, but then it starts to ease almost as soon as it comes. Ever since I was very small. Among my earliest memories. What IS that.

Yep same here …. My psychiatrist said it’s due to being emotionally disregulated and CPTSD. Brain suddenly feel unsafe and it triggers extreme sadness, a little anxiety and the feeling of fight or flight response. And all ik doing is having lunch with friends. 💀

Mine is realising the weirdness of being alive all at once and then knowing I have to shake that strange sensation in order to continue to live and function normally. It feels like if Truman from the Truman show decided to just ignore the fact that his life was a tv show and continued on pretending but like felt sick inside from it….

I think it comes from being empathetic and feeling deeply connected to the world. You can feel the sadness around you

I believe that sometimes we hold the sadness for others like lingering energy that we receive and carry it for those who need us to

I get intense uncomfortable feelings. Like upset stomach and just terribly upset and uncomfortable. Icky feeling. Can’t explain it. No childhood trauma, and great parents, but I get this feeling sometimes.

I did too and it felt like an intense homesickness for something I couldn’t put my finger on. It only happened for a couple of minutes at a time but it made me feel incredibly empty in the moment. I had a God experience which led me to accept Christ and it never happened again.
