Re: Morning hell
Hi! I'm not sure I can be much help, but feel I am going through a similar thing at the moment. I am also still working, it is a good distraction, but I find I'm drained by the time I get home. There is no shame in crying, male or female. In fact I think a good cry can release some of the pent up tension. This isn't going to last forever, so please be patient. I have done some Acceptance and Commitment Therapy courses, which I find helpful. Especially a book called the happiness trap by Russ Harris. It basically teaches that thoughts are just thoughts, the way react to them impacts on the way we feel and any thoughts that aren't helpful let go of. I know it sounds easy, and I still have my moments, but it does help some. I try to make myself do things. I could easily lay in bed all day and think about myself, but I make myself vacuum the house, cook dinner etc, because I feel I have achieved something, which decreases the feeling of depression. Try to remember that it will get better, be kind to yourself, do some meditation and take breaks when you need them. Hope things start to improve soon. Maybe an appointment with you doc just to let him know how you are feeling would help also. Tracy
