Dealing with Depression: Tips and Advice

do the opposite of what i want to do as much as possible, ends in a lot of stress cleaning, at least the house stays nice though

it’s the little things for me. keeping a routine, not staying up to ungodly hours, spending time with people even if it’s just being in their presence, adjusting for myself when i just don’t have the energy instead of beating down. personally not working just worsens it for me and adds to this feeling of uselessness and unproductivity, so i try to do something productive each day so at the end i can say “hey, i did a Thing.” and when i’m absolutely beat, i call up my loved ones or indulge in easy things i enjoy. some days none of this helps. but that’s why i take meds haha
