I feel so bad with my family and I love them so much. They're my only reason to try a little. My sisters are always trying to cheer me up and make me smile but I can't smile or laugh. My sister and my mom just brought me my favorite chips and cookies but I have no appetite. And my mom just made me chamomile tea too. She's always begging me to eat and telling me to take my medicine at night. My dog wants to play with me and go on walks but I have no energy. They're the only reason for everything and I can't control these feelings. I feel so bad.

I understand. Are you seeing a doc and/or therapist for treatment of your depression?

I'm sure it's nice to see them trying to help. Do you think you might be able to thank them for trying to help you? But please try not to feel guilty. When we are depressed, we are depressed.

Yes, I'm actually having my first therapy session tomorrow and I have another appointment with my regular doctor in a few days as well. Yes, it's nice, it gives me a little motivation.

Thank you!

You sound like you have a family that cares and watches out for you. (I can't help but envy you for that...)

Even if you try a little, that is a tremendous effort for someone with depression and that should be applauded. Every little step goes a really long way. It's hard to feel okay when someone goes out of length to help us.. because we're stuck in such a hole.

On another note, hope the therapy goes well!
