@MDT It sounds like you're hvaing a really rough time at the moment. It can feel incredubly daunghting thinking into the future and trying to imagine getting back out there, esecially when we are feeling low. You don't have to make all your post lockdown plans now, you can give yourself time and space to slowly start getting back out there.
We're here with you

Hey lovely @MDT I'm sorry you are feeling like this You normally muster enough strength and courage to face each day.
One thing I do each day if I don't sleep properly is squats - it will normalise your body's energy and stop that awful post insomnia feeling. I learned it from Jost Sauer an traditional chinese medical doctor and I can attest it makes you feel better. He does all kind of body/mind techniques. I usually do it on the hour as he says. It works like a charm. Give it a try and let me know how you go with it.
With the feeling of worthlessness its just your depression talking, love. When you are in a better headspace you will feel your normal self again. I think you are a terrific person xxoo

Youre welcome honey. I know the feeling of hopelessness with depression. I suffer from schizoaffective disorder which is both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Just look after you Its hard getting out of these brain funks. You just need some extra TLC! xxoo When I get highs and lows I will say transdermal magnesium works. I buy my Ancient Minerals brand magesium off ebay. You apply it to your skin and it soaks up sufficient magnesium so as to get you out of those states easily. I know the pain of depression. Hey why not buy some magnesium oil and give it a try? It pulls me out of depression fast when my meds dont work. You can read about transdermal magnesium oil and mental illness online @MDT
