Wearing the same clothes for four days in a row and not showering is a big sign of depression for me. My depression has started to get a little better lately - I've taken a shower two times during the last week when I wasn't even going out anywhere - that's big progress.

The problem with wearing the same clothes for 4 days in a row? They usually will smell. People do come to my door sometimes.

The OP isn't the only one who may be offended by your first post. Not all of us are so skilled at coping that we don't get scared when we have anxiety and strong sui urges that go on for days.

"Seeking sympathy" isn't the only reason to post on here. I came here a couple of months ago with medication questions and questions about treatment-resistant depression and have learned so much. Also, the huge number of people who are dealing with similar problems for some reason helps to make me more determined to fight my depression.

I just started going to therapy again last fall after not having any for years because of money reasons.

It's easy to tell the OP to ignore you. Dozens of people are going to read your posts, though.
