Depression sucks.

November 14th 2006 19:20
I've been fighting a mini depression the last few days. I don't know exactly what triggered it, but I have been feeling very blah, extremely tired, and rather snappish and short tempered. I hate when I feel like this. The only thing I want to do is sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep. I've been trying to keep myself occupied today with cleaning, but I just can't do it anymore.

When I am depressed I sit and stare a lot. I can function. I don't cry or weep, I just either sleep, yell, or stare. I'll sit in the living room and just stare off into space, just doing nothing. I'm not catatonic, just quiet.


I'm hoping this goes away soon. I hate feeling like this. I hate feeling disconected with the world.

Hang in there. Sometimes these things just go in cycles, say because we do. Or they can be triggered by the change in seasons, like SAD. However, if this isn't something you've had a recurrent problem with, I certainly understand the desire to take refuge in sleep and I don't think (in moderation) that's harmful. But, as I'm sure you know, if this persists you might want to see someone. They might be able to prescribe you a temporary medication to get you over the hump and on to feeling much better.

No matter what, best of luck and good thoughts headed your way!

It sucks indeed. Sometimes it hits me too but I try to ignore it and occupy my mind with things that I enjoy, like reading, watching movies, going to the gym. The last one especially almost always cheers me up.
What cheers you up? That may be a good starting point.
