Looking after ourselves

Re: Now I'm really depressed

I have been lying awake in bed for hours. It's after 6.30am. I'm in a deep depression and my anxiety is very bad. I have depression and anxiety at the same time.

 

I can feel the trauma in my body. I also feel sad, disappointed, discouraged, hopeless, unsupported and alone.

 

I'm glad that I spoke to my therapist because she is very supportive but despite having her in my life I still feel extremely depressed. I don't know why. I have only been seeing her for two months so maybe it will take some time for me to see any improvement. 

 

I didn't have any dinner last night because I'm too depressed and I'm hungry. I will have some breakfast when I finish writing this.

 

I made some homemade vanilla chai last night so I'm having a cup of chai and my Pug is snoring beside me. 

 

Today I found a mental health support group in my town and I spoke to the lady who runs it. She is old and she has a hearing problem. I had to repeat everything I said and she still didn't understand me. It was really difficult talking to her. I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound offensive to old people. It was just tiring and not helpful. 

 

I still feel very disappointed about what happened with the mental health worker but I'm too depressed to keep writing. So I will have my breakfast and listen to my audio book.
