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.
Anyone else just lay in bed for weeks while not doing any of the things that should have been done months ago? I don't know what's wrong with me. I do have chronic pain but am still able to do all of the things I keep putting off.

I have a list of projects that I should work on but always find an excuse not to do them...the closet needs cleaned but I don't have time to do it because someone needs a ride somewhere. craft projects need done but either my eyes are bothering me keeping me from the small work or I don't feel creative to do scrapbooking. maybe with the kids home in a 2 weeks I'll get something done

I mean stuff like I am moving out of state for a job but have not found a home or hired movers and I start soon. Or paying a medical bill for a service I had over a year ago. Anxiety and depression suck!

Accomplishment can smack depression in the face. lol But, you have to do the thing before you can look back and say "I did it. I can do anything I put my mind to."

Yep, important things for my future just don't get done. There was a bunch of stuff I was supposed to do for applying to college that I've been putting off, and I haven't started my final paper that's due tomorrow. I just can't make myself plan for the future right now when I'm not even sure that I'm going to have one. The present is to much for me to handle. At the same time, I know I need to start making things up because everyday I put this stuff off the pile of make up work gets bigger. I really need to get my ass in gear.

I have a list of things I can't do cause I'm to busy doing other things, I can't do housework cause I work work work at work, then on weekends my kid thinks I'm suppose to be her taxi cab, well she is finding out that's not the case since SHE chose to wait so long to take the class she needed to get her driver's license. Im hoping she is learning from that.

I really feel for young people who need to do things to pay the rent. I am retired so have really let things go. I can stay in bed all day but prefer to sit in a recliner. Same thing. I am overwhelmed by paper. I save anything with my identifying information on it because people go through your trash. I am going to look into getting a trash burner if I can get a burn permit. The only way I can get anything done is to break it up into small tasks. Even that takes days. My doctor recently upped my medication so maybe this will get me motivated.
