I feel like my depression is really bad there past 2 days, and I'm having trouble "snapping out of it." I'm angry, irritable, sad, hurt, etc. I don't want to deal with anyone. I'm supposed to have group therapy tomorrow followed by a doctor's appointment and a "check in" with the therapist at my doctor's office. Same thing next week. I don't want to do any of it. I don't want to see my new therapist. I feel like nothing is helping me right now so why keep trying.

When the Skeezyks wants to give up... he just keeps doing what needs to be done. Many years ago, my father used to say: "You're not required to like it. You're just required to do it." Over the years, I have taken this as my mantra...

This may sound odd, but bear with me. When i'm really, REALLY down in the dumps and want to just give up on everything. I give up on feeling that way. It's not a magic fix, but it helps a suprising amount...

Or I could just be pretending I don't feel that way anymore. But it seems to work

This is messed up, but I write. Not a journal (or at least an average one), not a song, a poem etc.; I write a letter, specifically a suicide letter. I pick someone in my life to write it too. Then I'm suppose to write another one to someone else. I even started to write one that I'd post on PC when the time came. I can hardly ever actually finish the first letter, however. I sit there writing to that person and being forced to think about them and our relationship; therefore I'm forced to consider what this would do to that person. I force myself to think about what I'm about to do. If I can ever actually finish every letter, then I'm ready to go, but as of now: I'm not even close.
It might help you, but it could also hurt you even more. As far as I know, I'm the only one I know of who finds this beneficial.
