I am sorry you are going through this. What I do is get up everyday and make it through as much of my day as possible. So for example, with going to work, my rule for myself, even when I have FMLA, is I can’t access whether I can make it through the day (Mentally not physical illness) until I am there. I do this for two reasons. Sometimes once you get going it’s not as bad and my other reason is when you lay in bed all day it gets harder and harder to stay awake. Even if all you can do is get out of bed and go sit in a chair, it’s a start. In regards to being around others, I try not to cut people out completely but I also don’t make elaborate plans to cancel. With meds, I did go off those for a while. It wasn’t a great plan but it did get me on something that is working better. I hope you start feeling better soon.
