I don't look at it as hypocritical. I think a lot of us can give kind words and encouragement to others. But, because we are down on ourselves we can't speak to ourselves the same way. I do this all the time. I am a caretaker, I feel bad when others are sad. I want people to hang on to hope.

My inner turmoil can't fit those words into my conversations to myself sometimes. Through therapy I am learning how to be kinder to myself. It's a learned behavior.

Agreed. I've been on a 3 week high, really feeling great.....I think I'm completely well when I have these super good spells. Guess, what, I'm not 100% well. Improved, yes. But, not completely well. Then I'm disappointed because I 'let' myself get rundown and weak and I can't help people when I feel that way. Of course, I'll perk back up eventually and get back back to it but, how to convince myself that I'm not a weak, sissy in the meantime is a difficult thing!

I feel you. Ive been sleeping more than im awake. I feel like its a coping mechanism. I just get upset when i dont get things done

I miss you too.

Oh no my hopey...let me try to put a smile on your face..shoot me a pm...I'll be there for you..

Dump trucks of groovy love, peace, light, joy and hugs beautiful you!

I am now the same although in my case it is age, I drift of on here or watching TV, sometimes I am zonked out when people are chatting away to me.

I get up at the same time every day, then after breakfast I check my mail, and when my wife takes the dog out I snooze until their return and have a tea break, ok in the afternoon.

After Dinner I check the news, check computer go out with the dog come back, go to sleep, or snooze. I have been told in my case it is all to do with age.

Mind I still feel sorry for you especially if it is a mental health concern. There may be some advice you could get from the Doctor especially if it is all down to drugs taken

Sleep was always my refuge from depression on my darkest days.....I understand. But you and I have both talked about this emotional roller coaster many times.....you’re not a hypocrite, your just at the bottom end of this cycle of this disease, and this is when you need our friends love and support the most, to remind you that this too is going to pass ...eventually..... No.... we never feel great because of the varying degrees of this disease....but we can be happisher on some days in spite of this disease....hang in there kiddo.
