Same ole thing. I had a real good week last week. Did a side job all week with a buddy and made pretty good money. that helps a lot as I have been totally dependent on my parents for some months now. My birthday was Sunday and had a really good day. I usually hate my birthday but this year I looked forward to it. Then on Wednesday I crashed big time and slept all day. All the symptoms of major depression. Plus ruminating and non stop worrying. Today I feel a little better but want to go back to bed. There is a definite pattern and it seems to hit after one little phase of something is over and I feel a let down.

The big thing that triggered it was my car over heated and I don't know why. It has been fine. I could not stop worrying about it and I was frozen to do anything about it. It triggered me or else it just coincided.

I have had some very good weeks. I would even say approaching happy weeks. Then these mini depressions keep coming and it has me really worried.
