Sorry you are feeling like this. At first I thought that you had a flat tire (I know how daunting a task like changing a flat can be for a girl) I can fix a flat in 20 minutes flat!! But back to your subject, put on some music and dance. Shake it up a little, just think that it could be worse you could be down in the dumps no?? I know what you mean about the creativity drain as I too have suffered it. I still have to yet to come up with an answer for that. All I can do is send you my hugs and kisses...xoxox

I'm in the same boat, absolutely flat and NOTHING interests me. I'm sorry your going through this too (((hugs)))

Deb!! Deb!!! It's those darned Depression Flats!!!

...Does anyone remember reading (or being forced to read) 'The Outcasts of Poker Flat" by Bret Harte??

Weelll, maybe we'll just have to make a club as The Outcasts of Depression Flats around here.

But no shooting one another, 'kay?

Seriously, Debs, I really hate that you feel that way. And I get it, because my writing sure does suffer when I'm flat And when I'm depressed. Kinda like your crafty things, I guess.

I miss seeing how you're doing, and I'm sorry your meds are getting in the way of Living. That sucks!

But I think our moods come and go somewhat, even when we take more 'stabilizing' meds. I hope so, because it's just January. Maybe after winter ends you will feel more "up"?

Are you seasonally affected that way?

Hugs and love, goingthru

:(

I hear you.. I am feeling that way lately.. I hope this feeling of flatness and depresion goes away.

Morning tats...just a big ole meh huh? Seems to be going around a lot. Hope you find something that catches your fancy and pulls you up the grade.

Here's a different kind of Flatt for the path you're on. It's not all broken.
Like Sahara said, it could be worse.

Do something different. Utterly different. Go off the beaten path and contemplate.

I went through a long period of drab, unmotivated and blah, just getting through and by...came to see it as depression once on the other side.

Scream. Shout about something. Get angry.

What are you holding back?

Let out the Tiger!!

I've been there.

More often and for a lot longer than I like!

It stuck around so long once that I just accepted that that's how I was going to feel forever.

Med changes didn't seem to be able to chase it away at all.
(But that doesn't mean that it has to be that way for you!!!! Try tweaking if you think there's the least bit chance that it will work!!!)

I'm sorry you feel this way and I hope it magically disappears, all at once.
Right now.

((((((((((Hugs))))))))))

Sorry you are caught in the doldrums or the mist. I do hope you find a way to break out and see the sun and feel the fun of life again.

Thanks for all the great responses to my post :-)

Lots of great ideas and love from you guys and I muchly appreciate it......I did get some pincushions made so I ain't dead yet!! lol

I don't have SAD Going.....but this winter has been getting tougher on me...need to start up walking again during the day I need sunlight here!!!

Anyway thanks so much for the ideas, not sure what exactly I'm going to do but hopefully something will tickle my fancy :-)
