No, it doesn't make sense, does it?
I'm one that meds work for, but I do know I feel even better when I eat healthier and regularly, exercise daily even if it's only for a few minutes, get some fresh air and sunshine, have someone to talk to in person (even if I do have to pay for it, LOL), and stick to a tight work schedule.
It's when I give in to the feelings of self pity that I start to eat junk food nonstop, not take care of myself, can't even think about work - and then that just makes me feel even worse.
For me, when the feelings of wanting to just not care about anything but how crummy I feel, I have to nip the pity party in the bud and get back on track.
