Worried about my depression coming back

lately I've been feeling bored and detached more and I'm starting to worry it's my depression coming back. Medication, therapy, and distance from my abuser really helped and I've been pretty stable. I'm really scared of slipping back. But idk if others here may see a possible connection with my neurodivergence (ADHD and Autism) and how being out of school messed up a solid rotinue?

Being out of school can deffinitly mess up routines and Kickstart depression. Especially if you don't really have a job to preocupy you with. Try starting a garden. Or a hobby that's interesting to you.

thanks! Yeah, this is the first Summer in 5 years where I didn't have a schedule or routine during the day. I could definitely schedule myself to do some writing

I have anxiety problems and sensitive hearing. I know what it's like to have attention issues. Let me try to explain something as basic as I can. This is what's helped for me. I try to focus on hobbies as well as work. If you focus on bad stuff and what triggers, it fuels your overall feeling anxious problems like a fire. Like when I don't eat and I go on Energizer mode, I tend to feel more sick and anxious. Welcome to talk about what's going on. I understand routine gives us something to expect. I get annoyed when my boss changes up my schedule making it inconsistent and hard to keep up with.

thanks!! I have rehearsals, but those are only in the evening and recently some rehearsals were cancelled last minute or I suddenly wasn't called so that's thrown me. I'm hoping to start doing some sort of academic stuff as a way to keep my mind working and busy
