My life seems surreal sometimes. How did I fall into this deep, dark pit of depression. Is this really happening to me ?

Sometimes
As I have wasted 24 hours in bed and only getting up to eat or go to the bathroom. I wonder the same thing of what happened to me to get me where I just want days to pass till it’s over.
Thanks Elliott. I'm trying to stay positive.
Do you feel this has been brought on by a situation that has come up or is there no event that brought it on and maybe it's a (I think they call it) chemical depression? Try to take some steps like sitting on your porch for a bit both morning and evening and watch the squirrels chase each other. And commit to finding a therapist if you don't have one yet. Also, consider cleaning one thing in your house each day. If you're lying in bed a lot, start with washing your sheets but just do one thing a day. It's such an act of normalcy without asking you to be social that it can help a bit and get your mind a little more prepared for whatever the next small step might be. Hugs.
I do have chemically diagnosed as you call it depression. I have been seeing one of the heads from NIH who has done a five thousand dollar saliva test to prove it but it doesn’t matter the meds don’t work on me. And the only one that did help caused so much weight gain I don’t recognize myself. As far as sheets I am a nurse so change my sheets every few days and shower daily so that’s def not the issue or helping but thanks for the suggestion.
