I know the feeling to well. It has happened many times to me in the past. My therapist calls it a case of conflicting values. On the one hand I am a reliable hard worker and good team player and on the other hand when I am depressed I just can't hang. I feel like a total loser when I can't work but it is what it is and she says I am choosing to take care of myself which is top priority. Hard situation.
