I don't want to stay out of bed. Having serious problems here.

My lips are chapped. I feel weak. I think I'm getting sick. But at least I'm finally out of the house. So.

Ups? I get to spend time with one of the few friends I have.
Downs? General weakness and ickiness.

Why do I go on facebook? My ex best friend got married yesterday. I of course was not invited to the wedding. Ugh...

Now I have to go see some family and pretend to be happy. Joy.

Good day today. Took my service dog, Bear, for a walk in the woods. My favorite season is October!

Hoping to find some connections that will help me to be myself again.

There is no substitute for therapy. Find a good one, s/he can help you develop skills that will help you manage, if not lessen, your low days. We care about you here, but can't give you the support. Or insight you get from a therapist. Is there an agency near you that has a sliding scale?

The absolute hopelessness of my situation sinks in once again. Each piece of my life that brings happiness or hope is taken from me. There is nothing I can do to get out of the darkness. The best I can hope for is just another crushing, pointless day of barely surviving.

Today wasn't so bad. I took my daughter to a b-day party she was invited to and ended up participating in watching the kids in the park while they played.
But then I had to take her home and go get ready for work.

Still fighting the urge to just lie in my bed but yet have no SI. Talking to my T in 15 minutes. Maybe he'll have some ideas. I don't feel like I'm improving with either meds or therapy. WTH is wrong with me, and what is the solution?

Bored. Annoyed. Frustrated. Tired. Lost. Lonely. Sad.

Rose76 · Oct 28, 2013 at 05:43 PM

Have had a totally decent day.

1948kate · Oct 28, 2013 at 06:09 PM

This site makes me feel so much worse sometimes.
Felt okay when I woke up, but then it just goes downhill from there.

I'm so scared I will feel like this for the rest of my life

Charl, sometimes I feel that way too, about my depression. I keep hearing, "This won't last forever," so I'm holding on to that hope. Hope you will hold on to that too. ((( Charl S )))

My day is going along swimmingly. Even my chronic neck soreness is not negating this delightful upbeat perspective I've been enjoying of late.

HiddenInPlainSight · Oct 29, 2013 at 04:30 PM

Had my first actual work day (on the floor) as a new nurse... then came home to have my wife rip my head off and ask me if I want a divorce before she headed off to her job. If I didn't have my 2 kids I wouldn't be here waiting for her to come home tonight... alive or otherwise.
