I feel like I am in a losing battle with my depression. I have been working from home since last March and last week and yesterday I can’t stayed focused on my work. I was in therapy until my insurance changed and I was feeling good I felt I could handle anything. Last month I felt like my head kept slipping under water—when I am doing really good I am floating in the water, when only ok I am treading water and so I found a new therapist but the first appointment available is in April 3. I have asked that if an earlier appointment opens up let me know but right now April is so far away

Hang in there. Better days are ahead. We are living in unprecedented times and we all are feeling it. I'll keep you in my prayers. Reach out to family and friends if you can, even if it's through Zoom.
Hi. It is really hard to be at home all day for months especially when you have depression. I'm so sorry you have to go through this.
What did you talk to your therapist about that made you feel better? Maybe you could put all your thoughts here and we could help you with some of it?
My therapist just tells me to constantly monitor thoughts and change them with positive ones. I have severe anxiety at which time it is very difficult to control my thoughts - but I try. I also try to keep myself busy and distract myself with various activities.
I can identify with the feeling like you're slipping under water. My anxiety recently has caused ringing in my ears and the feeling of being underwater as well. It can be debilitating. Distraction and redirection are what helped me get out of it. And.... lots of really firm talks with myself that everything is OK. My best wishes to you. Sending you lots of comfort.
I am so sorry that you are feeling so depressed. Do you have anything that inspires you or encourages you, motivates you? Do you have any hobbies or interests, things that you can do? to keep your interest elsewhere to occupy your time? I hope that you can get to feeling better soon. God blessyou!
