I felt so upbeat until about an hour ago. Now I am utterly despondent, hopeless, and dejected.
I think it is because I drank coffee this morning and now I am crashing. I went to the zoo today with my mom and I wanted to be energetic and upbeat for her. I’ve been such a stick in the mud. I felt like she deserved a good time. And we did have a good time. I felt so upbeat until about an hour ago. Now I am utterly despondent, hopeless, and dejected. I think it is because I drank coffee this morning and now I am crashing. I went to the zoo today with my mom and I wanted to be energetic and upbeat for her. I’ve been such a stick in the mud. I felt like she deserved a good time. And we did have a good time. Before an hour ago, I was feeling so hopeful. I thought---“the meds have started working! Yay!!! But no, I just had a good day because I self-mediated with caffeine. I’ve done this before and I should know by now how awful it is when I crash. I guess I am just stupid. I wish I’d stayed home and slept . I’d be depressed but not nearly as bad as this. Why do i do this to myelf !? why why why?????

A feel-good day with your mom at the expense of a depressed evening - sounds more like loving self-sacrifice than stupidity.
Are you sure this crash is due entirely to the morning coffee? In any event, you made a happy memory for your mom. Kudos!

The crash down is never fun. I'm sorry  Rohag's post got me thinking...uh-oh  Could your mood crash be due to being back in the usual situation ~ rather than the caffeine? Like, you're back home. Back into what you know, your home triggering feelings of hopelessness, loneliness, etc. Just a thought.  Shez
