So I posted up a thread recently about depression and relationships and was advised to look at what the triggers were, I've been taking note and finding out when I feel depressed and how I reacted this time compared to last time and what actually makes me feel low and anxious. The first thing I noticed has to be getting up as in waking up in the morning, I seem to feel so much more depressed then... I just wanna stay in bed all day, the next one is the one that confuses me the most; so I met this other girl and when she's texting me I'm all good but then all of a sudden like today she's not text me in over 15 hours and this makes me feel down, I met her yesterday and she said she enjoyed meeting me and said she would go the cinema with me but then backed off... The last trigger I found was I dropped my current girlfriend off at uni and she's going away for a few days, on the way I felt down, depressed and just pi**** off to be honest, she just kept talking and I didn't wanna hear it I just wanted quiet. However as soon as I dropped her off and headed home the mood started to lift... I don't get it...

I'm back on my meds and I'm dealing with things abit better this time. I've recently moved out from home so this kinda makes you deal with things better.

Any advice on triggers or what I have wrote?

Maybe that's exactly what you needed to feel better - quiet. Or, it's possible you needed "quiet" in the sense of freedom from sensory input. My peculiar mix of depression and anxiety has lowered my information-overload threshold. ???

Being back on your meds is helpful too. Evidently you need your meds alot more than you thought. I think it's a good idea to STAY on the meds indefinitely -- perhaps permanently. If you're like me, you can't do well at all without them. I'm clinically depressed. Is it possible that you are too? I'm going to have to be on meds til the day I die.

I'm glad you're feeling better. Try not to overload yurself with alot of chatter or drama. maybe that will help, although you can't always control that. LOL God bless and take care. And PLEASE keep us posted ok? Hugs, Lee
