I'm demoralized with trying to be supportive of my s/o who is in failing health. Yesterday I took him shopping and did a bit of housework for him. He gets upset easily and flies off the handle at me. I feel depleted and just don't want to go to his place anymore.
Maybe I'll get over it and wind up back there in a few days, doing what I normally do. This feels different from my usual fed up with things mood. I don't have any interest in my life or his life.
Usually, when I get really down, I expect that it will pass, and it does. Being depressed often means believing that feeling down won't pass. But that's how I feel.
I am in between pdocs at where I get my psych care. I mailed a note to my regular doc, my PCP, saying that I have gotten very down. I don't expect to hear anything back from him. I don't expect there to be any help for me.
I don't want to even open the door to get my mail. I know you have to make yourself do things when you don't feel like it, but I'm not managing to do that.
