I've been feeling an irritable and unsociable version of depression the last couple of days. I haven't been returning phone calls very promptly, my responsiblities all seem overwhelming, and I didn't go to work today because I just couldn't cope with people needing things from me. I'm also having a great deal of back pain right now, which probably adds to my generally grumpy state. I have accomplished a few very small things today... I ate healthy meals, took out the trash (which was piling up!), and went for a walk with a friend this evening. I just hate this feeling of being overwhelmed by life and feeling like I want to hide from everyone because I can't deal with people asking things of me. Anybody else ever feel like this?
