It's really hard to get things done when you don't feel like doing them...when I'm depressed, I am really lazy. I am still functional, but to conserve energy I do the bare minimum amount of work needed to appear normal.

My ex-therapist advocated for what he called the "nondepressed lifestyle". He theorized that if a depressed person does as much work as a nondepressed person, including things like running errands and attending social events, his depression will improve. I laughed at the idea, and thought that I could learn nothing from it besides the fact that my therapist obviously had never been depressed! However, I've tried it a few times when I was mildly low, and it did seem to help a bit. The problem, of course, is when you sink too deeply, and physically cannot live a nondepressed lifestyle...

Fight against this depression and stand your ground. Don't let it have your ability to brush your teeth or to post on PC. Maybe, if you battle it long enough, it will flee.

Besides, a lot of us would miss you if you took a PC vacation!
