I really value how gently you explain things like this because I think when people are talking about this kind of self sabotage cycle rather than showing they understand they just end up basically saying that depressed people are lazy.

After my mom died I didn’t leave the house for two months. It was a miracle if I even left my bed for more than a meal and the bathroom. I just stopped going into work, stopping texting people back, etc. after two months I slowly tried to get better. Because I ditched work they were only willing to give me 5 hours a week at the time, which was all I could handle. It’s still tempting sometimes when my tendencies arise to cancel everything, and sometimes I do, but I’m general I try to fight it and 9 times out of 10 that makes me feel a bit better. Depression is so hard because you have to try to push yourself when you have no desire or motivation to. It can be done though and there is hope. Things can get better

[@prernakumari5052]

Free yourself from people’s expectations. Free yourself from false desires. Free yourself from mainstream manipulation. Free yourself from seeking acceptance. Find happiness in whatever shape, mood or environment you are drawn to and feed from it.

[@robinthepunk]

The fact that this is so true. The other day, I got diagnosed with depression. I didn’t want to do anything except stay in my bed. My mom offered to take me out to get boba. I wasn’t as keen for it, but she arranged for my girlfriend to come with us. We got our boba and I was having a really good time. We then went on a walk and hung out at a park. She then had to go home, but our parents were really good friends and we ended up hanging out at her house until 11. Amazing day and I was so happy

This is why I will be forever grateful to my mom for giving me the right push to go outside when I was struggling with anxiety due to a small burn out. This made me heal quicker.

[@miasancto]

I always find I get out of that when I finally do my chores, with some help, and get on with life, and I go back to being stress free. But I get into that mood in the first place because I’m tired so “I’ll do that tomorrow” then I just keep pushing that back and what is only a small task becomes a big task, and now I need help to get it done so I can move on. I try not to push tasks back because it’s bad for my mental health.

The ruminating in complete isolation for 6 years 18-24 has completely scrambled my mind I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy. My mind just obsesses over and over and over about some traumatic events and I can’t think of anything else no matter how hard I squeeze my head or bang it on a wall so I just sit like a statue hours on end trying to completely blank my mind even after a 12 hour shift of manual labor. I have 6 figures in the bank but I don’t have the desire to buy or do anything other than struggle to clear my mind.

I had Covid I took a week off work I was the happiest I'd been in years, I sat around all this pain in my back disappeared, I watched cheer on Netflix, I was so inspired by those kids their determination following their dreams, pushing through obstacles in their life, I'm back at work depressed and miserable as b4 seeing everyone at work with a much better life. Having reached goals in their life that I can't possibly reach like simple basic things like partner, friends etc. I hate feeling sorry for myself but when I'm around work colleagues I can't help it.

[@ridefree9160]

This has been me everyday for the past 4 years. I am aware of it but it is addicting. And i have been stuck in this rut for too long. I have been wanting to make a change and its time. Its not worth it to miss out on life

[@Rainbow_Neos1]

Some days when I feel horrible and at my lowest, I just can't get myself to move. I just lay there and try to sleep. I can't get myself to get food, water, or do anything. Most times, sleeping helps me. It resets that mood I was in which was caused by multiple factors. I always tell myself "Tomorrow is another day". Sleeping the day off can be really helpful.

[@victoriah.20]

Sleeping and waking up the next day sort of gives you a chance to "start again". Some days when I'm in a really low place or lots of things went "wrong" in the day... I'm like "Okay, I've had enough of this day" and go to sleep really early. Somehow it does help sometimes!

[@starfish3182]

Thank you for telling and educating people about depression and social anxiety, I used to have bad panic attacks in high-school to the point where I would not even go to school because I had this irrational fear of being rejected, and throughout most of my life I barely talked to people because of that and it makes me very sad because I missed out on so many opportunities and lost so many relationships. Still today I lose people just because in my head I tell myself that they wouldn't ever want to talk to me andI justify it by thinking that I'm the problem. The problem isn't me, it's the anxiety and I hope a lot of people come to understand that those quiet people you meet in high-school are the ones struggling the most. So take care of them and make time for them. They go through a lot everyday.

[@Hopeandpeaceinjesus]

And sometimes being alone is AMAZING and HELPFUL. Maybe you can talk about that sometimes too.

[@moonhunter9993]

I agree. I just find I have to know when to stop and get out again. I do think burrowing down for two days sometimes helps with preventing burnout, especially when I also unplug from social media and switch off my phone. But then I also have to know when to stop doing that.

[@Nashleyism]

Yes. And I'd like to know how can I tell if I should rest or move. Hard for me to differentiate if I'm tired or burned out or just with a really low mood and sleepy

[@keirah2795]

How do you know when you need to hide away and be alone and when you need to get out? Just curious I don't understand

[@keirah2795]

​@@NashleyismI have the same question

[@paulthomas3841]

Hi, what you are saying is what I am going through every day X

[@deltaloraine]

I fell into this loop all the time during the pandemic. It made me feel like I didn’t exist. Like I wasn’t impacting the world at all because I wasn’t going outside, and that no one knew or cared I was here. Even doing something as simple as going out for a walk or sitting on a park bench with sounds of nature made me feel way better. Like I was connected more to the world by not hiding away.

[@Davids77724]

I'm so glad u found ways to overcome! But I would've known & cared if u were there, if I knew u! I've felt somewhat the same, but just so much more overwhelmed than anything. Still do, & IT SUX. But trying to work toward getting some kind of therapy for my life overall. I could reeeealllyy use it. Therapy for me, not meds. Really glad you're doing better!

[@sakak977]

If I could give you an award for what you've just said, I WOULD! It's like you're leafing through the book of my life and have found the page where I'm currently stuck. I have always been a very private person but the recent events of my life have turned me into a mega introvert. Hiding myself from the world in my cucoon is safe territory for me. But I'm also shying away from things that need to be addressed. I get anxiety attacks by just thinking about going out and dealing with people... Things which used to be a breeze for me. It's not healthy to be in this state for long and heaven knows I want to get out of it soon. May God make it easy for me and all the others struggling out there.

[@ts4686]

Done this for years. I know why it happened. I needed support and help, but didn't get it. So now this has become my habitual behaviour, and I'm struggling to break free of it. The fact that I enjoy being on my own, and my own company, means becoming a hermit, falls so easily to me. Bad combo. At least now I aware of it. I really do want to try be apart of the world again. Just coinciding with all this effing world chaos and lockdowns, doesn't make any of it easy to break.

[@BlondeQtie]

If you feel down, you need to do things that will make you feel better! This can be hard. You should eat well, drink water, shower, brush your teeth, go for a walk in nature, maybe work out, maybe talk to a loved one. This will make you feel better than lying in bed all day with netflix and pizza. You should eat junk food, when you are excited and in a good mood, not in a bad mood. This can lead to eating disorders like emotional esting, binging, etc. Take care of yourself!!! ❤️
