Everyday I wake up and feel disappointed that I have to get thro another day. I'm tired, I'm sad, I get thro the day doing what I have to then go to bed. Only to wake again the next day.

I just cannot think of things to look forward to, just more mundane, tireless same old.

Is this my depression? Probably.
I know what I should do to help myself, but I can't be bothered.

Can't even be bothered to be cross at myself like I usually am.

Hi Purplechick,
Reading your post struck a chord with me, because it is so similar to how I feel. I didn't even know if I could be bothered to log on here today. I've only been a member for a short time because I had short periods of depression before but this one is just not lifting. It's hard isn't it? Just trying to do normal every day things is like trying to climb a mountain. I just hope that it eventually lifts. Are you on medication or having therapy? I'm just considering visiting the doctor.

Thanks for this!

Are you already seeing a Therapist? When I was in this sort of state I got on meds and it made things better.

I feel the same way. The real world has nothing for me. I'm content playing my video games, it's sad when that's the only thing to look forward to, but at least it's something, right?

Seeing these words that you've posted breaks my heart. I've been where you are and felt like there was nothing for me...it could very well be one of the worst feelings there is! For me, ECT has been my solution and is helping quite a bit. If T and meds aren't quite doing the job, would you be willing to try different methods, such as exercise, meditation, etc...?

I hope you are feeling better soon.

I'm feeling a little better today and I'm wondering if you feel really low all of the time? I know that a situation I have at home is contributing a lot to my depression but I'm not in a position to change things right now. Always here to listen
