Depression in the evening

[Rexorr]

Hey- I'm new here-

A while ago (2 years or so), I had severe depression in evenings, my stomach always felt too full, I felt like I wasn't feeling well, and then I'd start thinking about that night, how I would probably end up being the only one of my siblings left awake, I'd feel depressed that I wouldn't sleep, and I'd start stressing out and my heart would beat fast. I would just keep thinking about that and I would completely break down.

I'm back in another one of these periods after an episode where I was in my bed and then started thinking about being sick, and being depressed, and it suddenly kicked in and I couldn't sit still for a moment. I had the flu about a month ago after like 4-5 years without it and these things usually happen after having it.

I'm really tired of this and I'd be grateful if anyone had any tips.

It sounds like you're ruminating. Mindfullness meditation is likely to help. Headspace app or similar.

How long has the current episode lasted?

How old are you?

The current one started a week ago or so, but it seems to be getting better now-> I've been doing crosswords during the evening and am quite enjoying them.

I'm 16
