Re: HOME

So I've rung up AMD made an appointment with my old psychologist.  I haven't seen him for 3 months.  But I just don't feel right. 

I can laugh or smile at things I'm watching or seeing.  I can find happiness in those brief moments,  but most of the time I'm just flat/dead inside. 

I have zero motivation to do anything,  even though my depression has left,  I'm still not on top of household chores. Or gardening chores.  I don't have the patience to read a book anymore.  I'm just existing.  But feel like I shouldn't whinge,  because after all the Depression has left.  Think I prefer bring depressed.  At least I know what to expect.  And not getting things done when you're depressed is understandable.  Not doing stuff when not depressed just means I'm plain lazy.

Re: HOME

That place where you feel like you are just existing is not new to a lot of us @utopia  It is difficult when you feel like the depression has lifted yet you have no emotions for anything in your life. Getting motivated or excited about anything seems impossible - as does doing the mundane things like housework or gardening. It is indeed a hard place to be both emotionally and physically - one feeds off the other and if we are unmotivated to get moving then it affects us mentally as well - but getting that motivation to move is so difficult. Often we get into that pattern and it is hard to get out of. I am pleased you have reached out for support from your old psychologist - that is actually doing something proactive to help yourself and that is the first step. Let us know how the appointment goes my beautiful cocky friend Heart
