I had a bad night...starting crying for no reason at all right before going to bed...had to get back up...go sit in my truck and just be sad...for about 15 minutes...then came back inside and went to bed...took a little while but finally went to sleep....

then this morning just didn't want to wake up/get up....and i didn't till the hubby went to the store...and i got up and washed the dishes cause I HAD TO in order to avoid going to the store with him!...

he came home from the store...cooked....we ate...I watched a couple episodes of my soap and now i'm sitting here writing this...

don't wanna do anything else but sleep and not think about the rest of this week...life just sucks...

depression sucks...

I hope your week gets better. Is there anything you enjoy or want to do? Maybe you can focus on that to help. Life sucks lately but we jave a trip coming so I try to focus on that. I hope it gets better for us all.

That lack of motivation is so hard to beat. It's easy to say to get out and exercise or work on a hobby or something, but the truth is that you just don't feel like it. When it's a hardship to even leave the bed, it makes it pretty difficult to do anything else.

I wish I had some great advice, but I'm afraid I don't. The best I can say is to try and weather through it unless you want to try and force the issue.I hope tomorrow will be a better day.

Sometimes all you can do is wear your most comfortable clothing. Rug up if cold making yourself as comfortable as possible and ride the storm out. Just take some you time and look after yourself. Not much I can say but (((hugs)))

I have noticed that you have realy been having a hard time I was wondering if you have had your meds looked at you might need to get them adjusted .....I know that when I go down I go see my doctor and he will adjust my meds and when I have been on them long enough and I have been doing better he will put them back to ware they were befor ...... I was feeling like you a month ago and mt doctor raised my meds and I also was so bad he had to give me sleeping pills I have never been on sleeping pills and never wanted to be but it was just getting reduculis I just couldent sleep until my bodie just pased out and then it was only for a few hours and I cried a lot now I am doing much better I am not reedy to have my pills lowered yet because I can feel my depression just below the surface. If you understand what I mean But ny head is above water .so just something to think about and as soon as I feel we'll enough I will get my meds lowered again and get off the sleeping pils ........I hope you feel better and can find relief for how you are felling ...I keep you in my prayers ...god bless

    I'm horrified!  I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000.  I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter.  I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change.  Now this!  I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000.  I guess I have to pay...

    We all have 24 hours in a day.  How we spend these hours is important.  Watching a little bit of a video about how sitting affects us made me aware of how much sitting and laying down I do.  Gonna have to work on that.Your turn.  Tell me another truth.
