There is something oddly freeing and accepting in expressing that you are depressed. It's still scary but at least you aren't alone in it any longer nor beating yourself up for not getting your head out of it. I've noticed I have no mojo to do things I enjoy and then beat myself up for not doing them. Same with chores and adult things what need doing. My temper and patience are in short supply also, which just all adds up.

I do aim to speak with my doctor about some antidepressants next month and will work on treating myself better, but i just need to remember it is okay to feel this and not vilify myself.

I'm kind of laughing though as I keep imagining my headvoices dealing with this and Asajj is all "Back the kriff off" and being threatening at my Nothing, while Sam is being himself and just saying "It's okay. Give yourself the time you need."

These things happen, man. I wish you luck, and I hope your doctor can help.

And as far as headvoices go I can remember getting through one or two 'oh dear God what medical thing is happening to me' periods of terror by spontaneously developing a movie!Ratchet to talk me through it, so that's not a bad mental way to handle some of it.

Much appreciated and glad I'm not the only one who mentally interacts with head voices. = ]
