Whether it be from school or work, if you take a break to focus on beating your depression, does it actually fix the problem? I've been thinking about it for a while now and it just seems so bleak to me. What would I do? Sleep a lot and try to eat something? Everyone else is just so busy I would probably end up just as lonely and feel more like crap since I'm not doing all that much. What do you even do during a break anyway?

And I'm the type of person who can't really be by themselves or I'll end up a hermit and forget to eat and just sleep the day away to avoid doing anything and avoid feeling guilty of doing nothing. So that means I would either need to go back and live with my parents and have them help regulate my schedule but I don't think that fixes the issue either :/ Has anyone taken a break and had an earth-shattering epiphany on how to live and be happy?
