I often get ahead of myself, too. I do best if/when I remember to take the day moment-by-moment.

Yes, I agree that as depression worsens, it's increasingly difficult to engage in these types of strategies. I don't mean to minimize your struggles with depression at all.

There is such a thing as truly paralyzing depression, which is a special sort of hell all its own. I am so very close to that right now.

Thinking of you, hoping you get some relief soon.
