Just having another bad day feeling really depressed and out of it. Don't feel like doing anything except sitting around or watching TV. Sometimes I feel tears in my eyes for no reason but I don't actually cry jus feel like it. I hate these recurrent bouts of depression. My mom is not doing too well. She lives in another state and part of me feels like I need to go visit her but the other part of me does not really want to be around anyone. I feel guilty about this and this only adds to my feelings of depression. Just needed to share some today hoping it will help me feel better.

That is where I've been all week, in bed staring at the walls, dozing off, taking my laptop to bed to post on PC. I just haven't felt like doing anything. Don't feel guilty about not seeing your mom. Depression can be very debilitating and it is not something you asked for. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Just a tip: If depressive bouts are recurrent, write them down, intensity and duration. Then report the data to the pdoc. I did so and we found an effective medication.
Of course this requires the type of doctor who will listen and care what you say... |

just wanted to come here and add my support.
"She lives in another state and part of me feels like I need to go visit her but the other part of me does not really want to be around anyone. I feel guilty about this and this only adds to my feelings of depression" feeing two things at the same time is horrible. But it's natural and I think it happens to everyone at some point. You don't need to feel guilty about not wanting to see your mom. There are pros and cons on both side and it's ok to see them all. That does not make you a bad person. sending hugs ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

Thanks for the suggestion. We do talk about it and we have tried many different medications. I have even been through ECT treatments two years ago. Went a long time with nor recurrance but have had two relapses since then. I am on Lexapro and we have just increased my dose so maybe that will help some. We'll see.
