And I just feel not right.
But I'm able to get things done.
I'm not in bed all day every day. I even have a job. [which is actually really stressing me out even though it's only part time, but still]
So I just feel like I'm not depressed "enough" to be feeling as badly as I do. Like the defect is me. ME as in myself, what I can control. The "why-don't-you-just-perk-up-and-get-some-fresh-air" me.
I don't know.
I wanted to join the bipolar chat but I have to make more posts or something in order to be allowed in.
Maybe some other night.

Before I was diagnosed with bipolar, I was diagnosed with major depression. I was functional, I worked and went to church, but I felt like I had no energy, I cried, and I felt like I wasn't going to make it another day.
Just keep hanging in there. You are depressed. Be sure to take your meds, talk to your support team and cry if you need to!
