are you seeing a doc, and/or a therapist? Do you have meds?

That's not going crazy, it's just a horrible aspect of depression. You need to find a way to tire yourself out x

Been there, done that. Please see a doctor. Being deprived of sleep and rest is not a good thing.

i had the same thing happen, started about a month ago. if you arent getting any sleep you need to go see someone as soon as you can for some meds. i went for 3 weeks with basically no sleep, and that is the worst thing for you if you are already feeling down. I resisted taking meds, and i dont believe they solve everything, but if you arent sleeping, then you need to take something to help......and then take it from there.

They say that if you think you're going crazy that you're not! Its depression. My heart goes out to you. Are you getting any support or on any meds??

you have us!! i know its hard - i was exactly the same, and still feel the same about friends. but work shouldnt be your whole life. i knows its too much to think of right now, but making new friends will help i think. plus that might help with the insomnia?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
