Hey,

I know what you mean completely. When I am very low I find self care so difficult, getting showered, dressed, doing hair, make up and all that crap (esp for women) seems like such an effort that I would rather stay at home in my pjs. I do try really hard to push myself and sometimes when I am trying hard to not drop into a major low I wil force myself to get up and dressed and give myself something to do each day, often meaning i have to leave the house. even just going to one shop or the post office etc but I will try to give myself a task each day to help me feel I am doing something productive. however I often find this tires me out after a while and I get fed up.
Without my Therpist I know I would do even less, I would feel like no one out there cared what i did or if I felt bad so I probably wouldnt try very hard at all.

I do find though distraction or sleep sometimes is the only thing that gets me through a very bad time however.

Joys of life
Thanks for this!
