Didn't have energy to wake up and go to work.
Didn't have energy to go out get some decent food.
So its 530PM, worried about work and with stuff I had to take care of.
I just can't seem to get out of this place.
I feel fat.
I feel like a loser and like there's no point.
Ugh.
Thanks for letting me vent.

Some days are like that for me too. I hurt but I still have to focus on maintaining my treatments.

My mom has chronic depression. Will try not to get it on me this weekend, but its difficult.

The HALT rule?

TakingCharge999

Thanks Live... lol, we "talk" in many forums....

Today is another day like that, well in general the week was like that and I am thinking if my therapist is wrong and I actually NEED meds?? I took Lexapro for a while and I remember feeling normal and motivated.... i just don't think I have it in me naturally...

I am doing really bad in HALT. I will cover my HALT then perhaps ask a second opinion. I have Lexapro at home and am feeling the temptation to start them myself. I know that would be wrong. I feel so frustrated to see others enjoying their lives not worried about much and here I am in a dark fog. UGH. Feeling the victim......

Then I talked to my mom and she kept yawning and seemed sad and I got so angry with her and with me for living like this.

It helps to get it out.....

HALT,
Do not let yourself become Hungry, angry, lonely, or tired.
Very basic, very practical. Really works.
