have you eaten something and had tea/coffee?

[JonW_Swan in reply to LazyXrayEyes2255]

I had coffee

[LazyXrayEyes2255 in reply to JonW_Swan]

that will trigger you to relax and having something to eat, even if it's bread and butter or biscuit will help you xx take it easy today, you have plenty of time tomorrow to do the things you need to do xx we start fresh tomorrow xxxx

You must feel like going to the bathroom sometimes. When you do that, on your way, just do one little thing that you've been putting off. It's a little start, and could be all you need.

good idea Maggie. 1 thing might lead to 2. Once we are up and moving we get a little more energy. Tomorrow is a new day.

Unfortunately, I know the feeling well.

I have had several bouts with depression and anxiety over the past 23 years. Besides getting professional help, medication and therapy, what has been most therapeutic for me is regular exercise (including when I don't feel like it), being active with projects around the house, activities with my kids, working hard at my job, and trying to connect regularly with family and friends. One thing I learned from reading and from experience is to not wait until I feel like doing something. As difficult as it seems, I have learned action precedes feelings. When you take action, and this can be small things to start with, motivation to do more follows. I hope this helps.
