I didn't leave the house since last week. I've just been so down and I wondered if meds were contributing to it. I decided to take myself off of the xanax and vicodin. OMG.. it was NASTY. I just adore withdrawal.. anything to cause myself more discomfort.

Ok.. so exercise is good for depression, right? After staying in and sweating and vomiting it out for 5 days, I DRAGGED my sorry ***** into a shower.. put on my gym clothes and sat in the car with it running for 10 minutes before I got the courage to drive to the gym. It's amazing how bad one's heart rate gets if you leave it go for a week.. I couldn't believe the numbers.. I didn't care though, I just put on my music and walked. I walked uphill and fast and slow and level and uphill, uphill, uphill until I was dripping with sweat and out of breath. :deadhorsebeat_4: I'm always walking uphill.

I put on good music, but it was 70's stuff - and I kept flashing back to very bitter/sweet times. I just did what I had to do, got to the car and put on some Stones for the ride home. I made it home before the tears came.

I don't feel better - why did I bother? T is away so no appointment this week. I'm supposed to work with my trainer tomorrow (I called off yesterday). How can I get up to go work out when I can't go to sleep though? What good is it anyway? I still gotta dump 30 lbs and I can't. You'd think that losing all of this weight so far would have brought me out of this FUNK, but it's no better. Before I could say I didn't have a life cause I was so big. Now what do I have to hide behind?

Think I'm tired of being alone all the time- the empty, saggy feeling of a lifeless house. All my pets are gone. My daughter moved away, and although I live in the same house with my xhusband, I only see him long enough to put a plate in front of him when he gets home at night. He sits out here and eats then goes to his room and that's fine. I just stay in prison here.

I have no friends. I sorta got with an old hs bf for a while (long distance thing), but he treated me like total crap - THEN dumped me! I'm such a jerk. LMAO I'm so stuck here forever. :Bang-Head: Yea.. believe it or not I'm like middle aged here!!

There's gotta be people out there!

You can't see us though cause we're hiding. I've barely left my house in three years. I have a slight fear of starving to death so I get it up and do make it to the grocery store once in a while. I have no friends or I'd probably ask them to go for me. My car is barely 20' from my front door and sometimes I run to get there. I feel like I'm on anther planet at the store.
My bed is my best friend. Excersize, what is that? Typing on this keyboard...... I have a three story, three bedroom house and I live alone in two rooms. I do make it to the kitchen, and bathroom once in a while. I look out the back door at the foot high grass and the overgrown gardens I used to love and I have no feelings at all. My nieghbor takes pity on me and mows the lawn once a month, and I've never thanked him. All the time I hear from my mom and sister, "you've just got to snap out of it." So much so, I avoid THEM now.
No person without these feelings can understand, since we all live in our own shells of reality. I ve stopped trying to explain it to the yawning faces of the listeners, ( why do their watches get so interesting?).
Yeah, we're out here. No one can see us though, cause we're hiding.......
