Feeling down again

Lounge

This Coronavirus pandemic and lockdown is getting to me.
My depression is resurfacing.
I hope it doesn’t last.

Luckily I have a Telemed session with my pdoc next week.

It had started getting to me too. I have decided to start my day off with a short walk around the block. At 8am not many people outside and I avoid them by keeping a safe distance, so no risk there. But a few breaths of fresh morning air can do wonders.

Yeah maybe part of it is feeling boxed in my house.
Going outside to get some fresh air.

Yeah, sorry @Wave. I wish there was something I could say or do to help. Just remember we are all in the same boat all over the world, you definitely are not alone.

I’ve been struggling too. I just keep reminding myself this too shall pass. I’ve not been watching the news. That has helped a bit.

I still do the grocery store shopping for us and I am starting to wear a hospital mask when I go so I feel better, but still scared out of my wits because I don’t think I will survive if I get the virus…

I too get a little down at times.

We just need to reminds ourselves about our health and financial security.

There’s a lot of people out there who don’t have either of those things.

If you weren’t a little sad about our situation now, I’d wonder about you. As one person said, “Someone who is happy all the time is just as sick as someone who is sad all the time.”

Me too. I don’t what is triggering my intrusive thoughts. I am not doing well. I quit my vape 6 weeks ago. I decreased my Wellbutrin from 150 mg to 100 mg plus I stopped going to the gym because of the lockdown. I don’t know what triggered this episode but I’m losing my mind. I left a message to my doctor I think it’s time I try a tranquilizer.

I know what you are experiencing. It will be okay. Take care of yourself. Maybe grab some soup and a funny movie?

I think I’m starting to get used to being miserable. Actually trying to remember what it was like before this Pandemic.

Oh yeah…freedom.
