This depression is kicking my butt. No response from call to pdoc this morning... Blah! This is tough all I wanna do is sleep al day. T told me not to stay in bed all day...easier said than done right now. Good nite! Im goin back to bed. This sucks.

I know what you are feeling!! maybe go out and get coffee or something?? I feel the same way, but you always brighten up a bit when you get out. I know its REALLY hard not to stay in bed all day, but try to get up. Do something. Watch some tv, go for a walk ect.

Good luck, im sorry your having a tough time

No answer from pdoc today...AHHHHHHH! God help me this weekend! I dunno if I can do this. Back to sleep.

I'm right there with you, so don't feel alone.. Sometimes you do just need to crash and sleep instead of getting out and about - it can be the best thing to do at times - so if it's what you really feel you need to do, go ahead lovely!

I'm sorry your pdoc didn't get in contact with you! I know how hard it can be when you really need to speak to someone but can't - try and take it easy and be gentle with yourself!

Depression sucks. It just does. I try to pick one thing to do, and just do that. A couple of weeks ago, it was just getting up to get on the computer and talk to people here. With the support here, I concentrated on remembering what I had done in the past to cheer myself up, and ended up making bread. After that, it was one more thing, and one more, and I was able to drag myself back out of it.

The other thing that helped me was to remember that I had been depressed before, and had gotten out of it. Remembering that it's not forever, and I have survived it before, was really helpful. Is this your first depression?

No this is not my first depression. But they can get bad fast so im really concerned that pdoc didnt call back yesterday.

hoping today is a better day for you♥♥♥

Thanks TD but not so much. Actually it is getting worse. I did manage to do laundry today though....im just plain exhausted.

laundry is a start. go outside. that is what helps me the most. breathing the fresh air. sometimes i just go and sit on my back steps and drink my coffee.

you are now alone. been there lots of times..

Has anything other than medication helped you in the past?

No not really. Nothing other than sleeping.

Well i got out for little bit tonite. No luck on feeling better though maybe a bit worse. I try to keep myself distracted but nothing works right now. Thinking maybe i should just give up stay in bed and wait wait for something to be better. Dont know what that something would be but there gotta be an easier way through this than im taking. This can not be happening rite now..lim finally moving forward and BAM! Depression hit again. If i get old talking about this just tall me but i gotta do it somewhere i figure here is best.

I know how your feeling. Depression is really kicking my but right now too. All i want to do is lay down, go to sleep and never wake up.

I hate this feeling. Its like whenever i feel even a bit better, depression comes along and knocks me on my *****

You are more then welcome to talk and vent as much as you need to. We all need a place for support and venting.

I really hope things get better for you

[Dos3512]

Thanks Carly. Sorry you are going through the same thing. It sucks. Hope you get better soon too.

I think when docs office calls back i am gonna ask to do the partial program at the hospsital nearest my home. I just cant take this much longer. Sleep, sleep, sleep thats all i can do right now. Ugh!!!!!

Thats a really good idea! i was in a bad place mentally last night, i emailed my T and at some point in the email i mentioned asking her to tell me its ok to kill myself....she didnt like that very much.

So now we are talking about doing IP....i agree i cant take this anymore!

[Dos3512]

Carly been IP take it if it is really that bad. You deserve to feel better IP isnt alot of fun but it does serve its purpose...to keep you safe and get meds adjusted quickly. I need to take my own advice!

You two are givin each other good advice. Keep reaching out and do whatever it takes to stay safe.
