I haven't felt this bad for quite a while. I felt bad when I woke up, but that's not unusual and it wears off by noonish. But I had to go out there, into that scary place where people are and you never know what might happen. I had to go to two stores, the garage for the car's safety check and to get my hair cut. Now, usually getting my hair cut is a relaxing time, but I was already so anxious that it was just something I had to get through so that I could get back home. I took an extra 1 mg of Clonazepam and it didn't help. I'm just a basket case. What will ever help me? I'm just sick and hate myself for being so weak and stupid. There must be something that I'm doing wrong because I'm getting lots of help, but nothing seems to work. I just want to hide and cry. Today was just too over-whelming. Hopefully tomorrow will be calmer.

Sorry you had a bad day. Hope tomorrow is better.

I hope it's only a bad day and the monster is just trying to come back. Do you have any defense mechanisms that usually work?

I'm so sorry you are having a bad time. You know that it is only the depression that is talking and not that you are doing anything wrong. Sometimes it just gets to us no matter what we do. Try to find something to distract yourself with and let it pass.
I like Hidden Object games. They completely engross me for a time. It helps.
You can always go on the live chat. That also seems to be cheering.
I hope you feel better soon.

Well, having a few days all to myself will help. I have 3 days and then my sister will be here for 2 days. Not at my house, at the cottage. I should be able to recuperate just going at my own rhythm and enjoying the fresh air working in my garden.
Thanks for your suggestion.
