Depression rearing its ugly head and making me ache from the inside out. Cant concentrate on anything but wanting to get back into my bed which I spent a solid 12+ hrs in yesterday.
I want to just give up. My body aches and Im too tired to keep on. Im at work and havent completed much that I would consider productive. Wish it would end. When do I get to enjoy life again??

I understand what you're feeling, I spend most of the time there myself and it's a horrible horrible place to be Good on you for getting to work! That in itself is an achievement you may not be being productive but you are there and showing willing and that's great! I wish I had something more helpful to say, I just wanted to let you know you're not alone.
Thanks for this!

I understand, too. I'm at work and can't wait until I get off and can curl back up in bed. My pdoc keeps trying to get my mind straightened out but he's not having much luck. I've been depressed so long I can't remember what it feels like to be normal. I hope yours goes away soon. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other.

StephO, I understand where you're coming from. I spend a good 15 hours in bed per day -- only about 6-1/2 of which is actually sleeping. I give you a lot of credit for making yourself go to work and for being productive. My depression is so bad that I can't even work right now.

Although I get out of bed each day, I keep myself in the throes of depression by arriving at a terribly depressing office, working in a business that brings me no joy whatsoever. I go home, sleep poorly, take medication in the AM, slog through another day...repeat...That's depression for ya...

Sorry that depression has effected you so badly lately. I pray that you are feeling a little better (or will soon).

I hope you can get up, get outside and enjoy some sunshine on your face. Let it warm your soul.

Stepho I so hear you and relate. I know that kind of tiredness, the ache. And the responsibility of work...and having "to prepare a face for the faces you will meet." (T.S. Eliot). Sometimes it's just too much and we have to rest. Hang in there.
