Depression isn't "laziness." Depression is an illness.

However, some people don't want to do what they need to get better. But the fact that you posted about this is a sign you want to understand why you may be stuck, and that's proactive, not lazy. It's a tiny step, but it is a step.

As for me, I know that the only way it's going to happen is with lots of little steps because I've been stuck for a long time, myself. Part of that is that I had a crummy T who hasn't helped me. But it's also because I haven't known what to do to get unstuck.

Finding this forum here this week, and posting is my first step in a long time. And I know the more little steps I take, the easier it will become to be proactive in my recovery.
