I guess my biggest concern now is that I have no energy and I feel really overwhelmed at the thought of going to work tomorrow. I went to church but the whole time I thought about just how drained I feel. I'm back in the bed now. I feel more tired today than yesterday. I want to isolate. My son will be home soon and he will ask what I did this weekend and I won't have anything to say. He will take one look at me and get worried. I don't have it in me to fake.

Today, the thoughts of my lack of purpose on life have started to creep in. I know it's not healthy thinking, it just doesn't keep the thoughts away.

I'm safe, just "down"
