Still depressed with treatment

[CroutonBehavior]

It feels like the more "progress" that I make, the more it hurts to maintain said progress. I'm still in the process of getting medicine and I have a therapist. I even started reconnecting with family and I do things every weekend yet, I felt miserable today. Thinking I don't want to learn how to drive, I don't want to get my GED, I don't want to be with family, I don't want to do anything. It's not just depression atp, it's me. It's how my brain works and it's my desire to be frozen somewhere while everything else wraps up.

Dear CroutonBehavior, I feel with you. And it's so great that you are making progress - you can be proud of yourself of having put so much effort and strength into healing. Its a tiring path with a lot of ups and downs - as you know - so be patient with yourself and value each tiny step you made. It's not you or your brain, it is the illness. It helps to be gentle and compassionate with oneself, and you may allow yourself some rest on this strenous journey every once an then - take care, brave one! 🫶
