That describes me to a tee when I'm having one of my depressed/anxious episodes. What's the problem with worn clothes if you're not going out -- that's my attitude, anyways. There are times when I don't leave the house for a full week because I can't deal with people. Even as I'm doing these things, I know it's my fault for not stepping out of my comfort zone & forcing myself to be around people. If I can't, I don't blame myself, or seek the sympathy of others. I don't know...Maybe it's a guy thing. When I'm at my worse, I'm less likely to post on PC. I've been in therapy long enough to know what I have to do to shake the blues. It's a matter of choosing to do so...or at least giving it some effort (which is sometimes impossible).

In short, I'm bipolar, as well...& don't dislike you. Just giving you a different perspective. If I'm off mark, just ignore me.
