feeling like crap

[nickytwotimes]

hey guys. i've always been prone to depression - doesn't take much to knock me off my perch. been on ads for years. seeem to have found a reasonable maintainance dose. problem is, we've all been poorly lately with various bugs. everyone else firing on all cylinders again now except me. this always seems to be the case. my dh despairs of me. i have a generally nice life - no big worries, but i am getting even worse than usual at worrying what otheers think of me. becoming totally nuerotic. pissed off at self for being like this and for being such a girly whimp when poorly and taking ages to feel better. feel like a big pile of poo.
i don't know what i expect of this post - just sounding off.
ds shouting for "mamama". will look in later if anyone has any words of wisdom??!

what do you do in your daily life?

i think a good way of tackling depression is to be challenged and have to achieve even if that means presenting yourself with some real worries or stress. Sometimes we make life easier thinking it will help depression when in fact it just has the opposite effect.

thank you zippi. i know what you mean, but being challenged is not something i am a stranger to!
i'm actually feeling a bit bettter today. i think i am just really run down and things which i normally find ok are getting on top of me a bit.
