I dun feel good.
I haven't been feelin' good, and I don't know what's wrong with me.
I'm having trouble handling my depression lately. I don't know how to approach it when there isn't some Big Obvious Life Thing That Needs To Change. Job killing you? Find something better. Abusive family? Move. Not that any of that was easy, and didn't take years and years of work to escape. Not that I didn't plunge the bowels of desperation.
But now...? Things are better. So, so much better. My mates are lovely, my work is good, fulfilling, AND I'M GOOD AT IT, and I've done a lot of work to heal.
...and I'm still getting swamped with despair, and harassed by pestilent swarm of chanting self hate.
I don't know how to fix myself. I don't know what's bothering me, what's really bringing this all up to the surface. Hell, it's not even really at the surface, it's just a general malaise I can't overcome. And I'm not doing well.
I want to be okay. I want to feel better. I want to stop hurting. I don't know where to start.

I’m not going to claim this as my idea, but I agree you should confess these feelings to a loved one.
They’re knawing at you, and believe me, it’s not good to hold stuff to yourself.
It doesn’t have to be a lot, you could try explaining to them how you feel on a bare minimim level, just share your feelings with people you feel safe to share with, and don’t keep them to yourself.
And it’s entirely alright to feel unknown dread. Just let someone know, and maybe you could work out the root cause…
And sometimes, we just feel dread mainly because our brains are so used to feeling it, it’s became a normal response.
Don’t bottle your thoughts and emotions, share them, and try and thing positive thoughts. If it gets difficult, you could confide with someone to help you.
I don’t think you’re keeping anything, but it’s good to make sure they know.
Remember, it’s entirely okay to feel like this.
