I'm experiencing some depressive episodes and it's starting to affect me really hard, I have a liver disease so I need to control what I eat and I have to take medicines, the thing is that I don't want to eat, I feel like my stomach is closed and I don't take meds as I should, which is really bad for my health in long term...
Do you know any advice of how to force myself to do this when depression and anxiety hits? I can't talk with my therapist for now so I really need help...
I'm wondering if maybe you could set an alarm and then a reward for after you take your food and meds? Like a hot shower or an ep of a show you enjoy? And maybe prepare food that is extra delicious?
When I have an episode I can't even get out of bed so that's not gonna work for me... Thanks for the advice tho!!
Yeah as I was giving the advice I was thinking that when I've been in my worst depression, that wouldn't work at all, and in fact no advice at all works in any way... all I can do is lie there... some advice that's well meaning but completely misses the mark sometimes makes me cringe a bit so apologies for maybe doing the same to you XD... hoping that the depression eases and releases you a bit soon. Good luck!
Start small! Don’t commit to a huge plate. Just start with something like apple sauce! I’m not sure how your liver disease affects your diet, but when i need to eat i like to eat really basic simple foods.
My anxiety prevents me from leaving my house
Has Anyone Else Had This Happen Also?
Don't really know what to do with myself to distract from dark thoughts 
idk what just happened
How do I find the Joy in life?
