i don't have anything specific to say, i've just been feeling so terribly low lately. i've gained weight and i can't cope. Today i slept in late and then laid around on the couch all day. I don't want to move or talk or think, I want to crawl in a hole and never come out.

I quit therapy back in April and have made some impressive backwards steps since then. On the one hand I want to go back but I never felt like I made any progress anyway. So on the other hand I think I'm a huge fat failure and therapy could never help me because I could never be helped.

I don't know what I'm looking for but I feel really lonely and defeated. Theres just a lump in my throat and I can't get out of this funk.

Hi, cka87. You sure sound depressed to me. I am thinking you need to go back into therapy at least to deal with feeling so down--and also I suggest you talk to the therapist about how you feel like you weren't making progress. Does that sound like a plan?

I sure hope you feel better soon. Hang in here.

I hope you're feeling better now than you did when you posted this, Cka. I quit therapy a few months ago. Nothing seemed to be getting accomplished & I just couldn't justify the cost. I also think about going back, or finding a new therapist. But I've tried a number of them over the years & they just never seem to go anywhere. I think I'm probably a tough case!

Today, I was feeling SO dragged out that I wondered if I would accomplish anything. I did get done what had to be done. Then I just spent the rest of the day on the internet. Fortunately, although I feel kind-of guilty about the time I spend on-line, I feel good about the time I spend here on PC. And allot of my on-line time is spent here.

I do hope you are feeling better.
