Hi everyone,
Does anyone find their depression is worse in the morning? Than subsides a little more in the midday and is almost non-existant in the night time? I've had a horrible bout with depression in the last few weeks. I'm hoping it will pass soon.
yes, me..exactky how described it..
For me, mornings are rough, middays are better, and evenings are usually pretty good. That’s true whether I’m dealing with anxiety or depression (or the rare periods when I’m dealing with neither.)
I think morning is just tough for me, no matter what my state of mind is.
My mornings are rough because I usually wake up thinking my life situation was just a bad dream . And then the realization hits me over the head.
im literally paralyzed in the morning..but lately, i try hard to break that cycle and its getting better..
Hello
If you don’t mind me asking ...what have you been trying ? & Has it been helpful? Every morning is a struggle to get out of the bed. Some days I’m stuck. No food. No shower. No phone. No meds. Nothing. I feel terrible if I had any appointments or shifts scheduled for that day.
Honestly, the thought of losing everything due to the fact that I have to work is what keeps me going. It is so hard but you just have to do it. Also make sure you take the meds as prescribed. They will eventually help you
I know it exactly, when the morning hits you mind starts thinking about having to get through a whole day feeling like you do. As the day goes on it does get better. Evening is the best, the day is almost done and you can go to sleep. Dr Claire Weeks who has written many books has a whole chapter dedicate to that. It's titled (That dreaded morning). I say those words a lot when I see the first crack of sunlight.
I WISH this was the case for me. Mines good during the morning, mid day I feel the break down coming, then night time all hell breaks loose. It’s hard to concentrate let alone let my mind wind down for sleep. It sucks.
Yes I feel a lot worse in the mornings. I think it just the idea as others have said that I have to get through the whole day. In the evening I take pills to make me sleep and to be honest I can't wait to be unconscious. Then I have nightmares and terror and often wake up in the morning feeling terrorised. This has been going on for about 3 months this time. I did have a brief period when i felt better but I think extra stress has brought it on. I keep hoping I will wake up and feel better but it hasn't happened yet.
