This has been going on for a while but it feels like it's gotten worse. I can't seem to make sense of what people are telling me and I seem to go in and out of reality or for the most part comprehending what's going on around me.

I've also been struggling in communicating verbally and it's also a struggle for me just to type about it as I am now. The depression is becoming more and more overwhelming no matter how hard I try not to let it get to me.

Anyway I apologize if I can't type back or respond to my posts like usual. My train of thinking is out of whack and I really don't have the money to go see a doctor about it although I had explained this problem to one a while back.

Also been having trouble eating and forgetting appointments. I don't think I have alzeimers as I haven't even approached 30 yet. So I don't know what it is. But I just thought I'd rant and give a heads up about it in case anyone who knows me wonders why I've been slow in replies. I already got into a fight with someone at work last week b/c they thought I was purposely neglecting my duties. I didn't know what to tell them as at feels like part of me isn't there.

Not sure how to explain the rest but there it is.

Sounds like depression, it can have a bad effect on organising oneself.. hope you feel better soon... ((((((MissConstrue)))))))

I can only offer the lame advice to get some extra rest. I don't know how much you usually get, but it seems common to forget to rest.

Sorry to hear that MC. That sounds familiar; I think it's a depression related thing (as opposed to something that might be permanent). --Things seeming half-real and confusing, and writing becoming nearly impossible. Like the brain trying to force a shutdown but you can't afford to. Anyway, hope it passes soon for you... it always 'breaks' eventually...

Thanks for letting us know MissConstrue-
I think Apple_in_my_Eye is onto something.
I have been there. Now that I'm on meds I know it will pass eventually.
Don't take on anymore than is necessary.
Take care.

Exactly.

There have been *many* times like this in the past when I could not imagine surviving tomorrow, but the fact we are still here today makes it possible for me to believe we can. So, I sit while I must and I trudge when I can.
