Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
How many of you all are de-energized when in your house or room? Do some of you use a maid service? I know it is because I can be a rat pack. My room is just my place to go and not worry. I feel bad, but I have been thinking about hiring a maid. I want to do it, but I just get to the point so often where I just don't want to do anything while I am. Mainly just keep my mind off of basic life in general. Yes! it is isolation. I know this is off topic. Yes I finally got me a job, but it is at home job. I am going to college again, and that is online. My world is getting smaller.
I let my place get rather trashed up and it's full of clutter. It's only because I have lots of things and a few years ago I moved from a 3 bdrm apt(@ 1147sqft) down to a 1 bdrm (@ 606sq.ft). Going from that large wide open space to half that size is a dramatic change. I really need to go through and sell a few things or throw some of them out. With my place being that small, after I get home from shopping the few bags that I have tossed out of the kitchen into the dinning room area looks like a bomb went off. Even when the entire place is trashed....like it is now, it really only takes an hour or two to clean and straighten it up, but the way I have been the last few weeks, I have no idea when it's going to get done. Probably soon because I am hopefully moving at the end of September into an apt that is 145sq.ft. larger than this one.
You could never offend me. I can't clean my house because it is physically too hard on me, so it is what it is.
Nick, I do like the suggestions you've gotten from the others. Just tackle one little thing at a time. Don't get overwhelmed by thinking you have to accomplish it all at once. IF you want to hire a maid service, then I sure don't think it's anything to feel bad about.
