You're singing my song. It seems that many of us understand this all too well.
Just getting out of bed is practically cause for celebration for me. Never mind dragging myself to the shower. Unfortunately, my doctor has told me that depression frequently causes headaches. Guess who lives with headaches and constant ringing in the ears Gah!
I find myself grazing on junk food during the day but often barely able to force myself to make dinner. Quite possibly, this indiscriminate eating caused me to gain weight and get diabetes.
Has your doctor diagnosed you with depression? If so, I hope and pray that you will get the help and care you need. It's hard, if not impossible, for us to properly care for others if we have trouble caring for ourselves.
Please be good to yourself.
