This was me for a while. I've found that when I'm depressed, taking the first step out the door can feel like an insurmountable task.
Also related, I'm actually in a conversation with a discord friend right now about how hard it is to feel connected to something as we get older. It's still possible, but it takes a concerted effort. Add things like depression and exhaustion to the mix, and you've got the ingredients for a downward spiral.
There are so many people out there who I'd love to give a big mental hug. So many people hurting.
Right on the nose with the insurmountable task.
The thing is, is that if somehow you get the energy to get out the door, whatever you have planned is (nearly) always a good time. It's just so hard to remember that when depression takes hold.
This has been my experience as well. I feel this every time I have something social planned, and even moreso when depressed.
I can be totally aware of what I need to do to feel better, and still get hung up on that first damn step. The psychological struggle is real.
I find even taking a step out the door to walk around the block can help improve my mood.
Speaking of which I think I will go do that right now! I could use it :)
Did you make it?
Shit I forgot. Ok going now. Bye :)
I can definitely relate, then my dog has to stay on routine …. I love her almost like another kid and am so happy she can share our family. I’ll spend as much time as I can, etc, etc. but there are weekend days when I. Just. Need. Sleep. but she has to make sure we all get up in time as if it were work/school
