I’ve gotten to the point now that I can recognize when my depression is coming on. I felt it yesterday and it’s even worse today. It’s hard for me to explain it to anyone who’s never experienced it. It’s a mixture of anger, melancholy and plain irritation and there is no outstanding reason for any of it. It’s up to me to do something once I feel those things coming on, but sometimes I’m not sure what.

This day has NOT started off well and my head has been pounding since I got up. It’s days like this where I just want to stay in bed all day, curl up under the covers and just zone in and out of sleep. Don’t want to HAVE to do anything.

Since that’s not possible, let me not dwell on it. Let’s get this day moving.
