    That is not “not very much at all!” When you’re struggling with depression, that can be a heroic effort! You did right by yourself even on a bad day, and that is something to really be proud of!

  7. Recovery

    • Expectation: I feel a little bit better today!
    • Expectation: I feel a little bit better today!
    • Expectation: I feel a little bit better today!
    • Expectation: Hey, I think I feel pretty good!
    • Expectation: I guess that means I'm normal now! Time to go live a normal life!
    • ---------------------------------
    • Reality: I feel terrible.
    • Reality: I still feel terrible.
    • Reality: Is this seriously "recovery?" This sucks.
    • Reality: I don't want to be thinking about all of this shit, this is exhausting.
    • Reality: I guess today's not so bad.
    • Reality: Today is bad again.
    • Reality: Today is bad, but I think I'm starting to understand why.
    • Reality: Wow, how long has it been since I cleaned my room?
    • Reality: Cleaning my room didn't make me feel any better, but hey, room's clean.
    • Reality: Whoa, okay, I need a shower. And maybe a haircut? Definitely a haircut.
    • Reality: Everything sucks.
    • Reality: Okay, except you.
    • Reality: And you too, I didn't mean that you sucked.
    • Reality: And that thing that I like is pretty cool.
    • Reality: What was I talking about?
    • Reality: Oh, THAT'S why my ex broke up with me.
    • Reality: Wow, it turns out that was totally my fault?
    • Reality: I was the jackass.
    • Reality: Holy shit, I am such a jackass.
    • Reality: Everybody must hate me.
    • Reality: EVERYBODY HATES ME.
    • Reality: Okay, how could everybody hate me? I mean, even if I'm a jackass, the Law of Averages dictates that SOMEBODY out there would probably like me anyway.
    • Reality: Why would everybody hate me anyway, I'm awesome.
    • Reality: ...I'm not that awesome.
    • Reality: Sometimes I'm pretty awesome, though.
    • Reality: OH MY GOD I HATE MYSELF
    • Reality: WHAT IS THIS, I'M RIGHT BACK WHERE I STARTED
    • Reality: EVERYTHING SUCKS, THE WORLD SUCKS, I SUCK, NOBODY WILL EVER LOVE ME AND I WILL DIE UNMOURNED AND ALONE
    • Reality: ...What the hell was that about?
    • Reality: Anyway, gonna get stuff done.
    • Reality: Gonna get stuff done
    • Reality: Getting stuff done
    • Reality: WHY DO I FAIL AT EVERYTHING
    • Reality: WALLOWING
    • Reality: WALLOWING SOME MORE
    • Reality: Okay NO MORE WALLOWING, we've talked about this, we're not doing this right now.
    • Reality: ...I can't believe that worked.
    • Reality: Huh.
    • Reality: So hang on, is this it?
    • Reality: I mean, is this recovery? Am I doing this right? Is it going to be over soon?
    • Reality: I just want to be normal.
    • Reality: I am such a ridiculous trainwreck of a human being. How do I even exist? Why do I get to have friends? Why do you people talk to me? There's so much about myself that I really don't like, and there's probably even more stuff that I don't even know about that isn't too hot, either. And I'm working on it, but man, it's hard.
    • Reality: ...I just realized that everything I just said is normal.
    • Reality: Oh my God, am I already normal?
    • Reality: I'M ALREADY NORMAL. THIS IS NORMAL.
    • Reality: It's...not exactly everything I was hoping for, to tell you the truth.
    • Reality: ...Oh well.
    • Reality: Today was okay.
    • Reality: Maybe tomorrow will be better.

    It works this way for everybody, anon, depressed or otherwise! Please don’t lose heart!

  10. boggletheowl:

    The thing is, so many depressed people secretly think this way. It’s a depression mind trick that keeps so many people who need help from seeking it out. I just hope drawing attention to it here, where it’s so clearly stated, might help a few people spot the contradiction in their own minds. Anon, please go get help. Your problems are obviously not insignificant.
