Struggling with Depression and PTSD

My depression and PTSD have been intense the past couple weeks. I’ve spent yesterday and today in bed the majority of the day, only getting up to make myself do a small thing here and there. I missed work all but Monday, two of those days were scheduled PTO, but the other two I just couldn’t find the energy or strength to go. My thoughts have been dark many days as well. I just feel so alone in all of this. I have so much going on in my life that’s contributing and I have so many good things as well. Depression doesn’t care. I’m thankful to have a wonderful therapist and understanding workplace.
