Haven't showered in a week, all I've done is sleep

I hate living so much. I hate being alive. I have no energy to do anything. Not even write this post.

I don’t know if I have good advice. I just want you to know...been there done that. All of it. I hear you. You are not alone. Severe depression sucks. It sucks! And it’s not fair. The lack of energy is my least favorite symptom. For me, it’s worse than all of them! I have thankfully learned how to keep active. But in my depressed states underneath my activity is a desire to stay in my pjs all day. Honestly I think I am metaphorically. Just living in misery. I think sweet thoughts of death too. I’ve actually put the covers over my head to pretend I was buried. Strangely, my mood was better after that! And I got energy. Guess it was like a vacation. Hmm, maybe I’ll try that again. All to feel better.

Anyway, know you’re not alone in this and in your thoughts about it.

HOW did you learn to keep active?
