Struggling with Waves of Depression

these waves of depression are driving me crazy .... I can not pull myself out of this funk. and it's a depression I've never felt before...it's so strong, sad, lonley.... I don't want to go to sleep because I don't want to deal with it all the next day ...I don't want to wake up because I don't want to deal with it at all. I find myself self isolating from everyone, zero energy or motivation, self care....down the drain, don't want to eat or drink, up super late, sleep late ( unless I have something to do or work ) then I physically I have to force myself out of bed...I feel so alone and trapped...when does it end ?! 😥

Right there with you. It’s so hard. What seems to help me personally is forcing myself to do things I would normally enjoy doing. Also learning to stay in the present moment and focus on being patient and gentle with myself, but sometimes I just gotta force myself to do something I enjoy and then I feel a little better after/during. Thoughts about the future or doomed thoughts like it’s never going to get better I try to block out and just focus on the present moment. Sometimes going outside just to feel the sun or wind on my skin helps me feel a little more alive again.

I've tried doing all that as well but it's like the stuff I once enjoyed I know longer find joy in doing them 😥 and it's so hard for me to focus on the present moment cuz I feel like such complete shit !
