Depression isn’t always dark rooms and crying endlessly. Sometimes it’s getting up, going to work and smiling and laughing all day and then coming home to quietly sit doing little to nothing until it’s time to go to bed and start the cycle over again
Inertia is horrible.
@LnzyHou 🔃 it's a vicious cycle
My better half brought me a peppermint mocha home just for the smile it brings me, however brief 💜
@TwistedWhim I love this for you! 🥹
@EllyOnTheGo
I will admit it made me feel a tiny bit better.
@EllyOnTheGo I've been depressed my entire adult life. I get it. I managed it with alcohol and drugs for a long time. Now I just smoke weed...and I do take meds...they make life better for me and for my family. 😐
@HawkHorton I take edibles and should probably get back on the meds train myself. I just don't want to feel like a zombie
@EllyOnTheGo I'm too hyper to ever be a zombie on anything.😉
@EllyOnTheGo I can relate. My week has mostly been 3am dark thoughts and putting on a face. It's exhausting acting okay in the workplace. Read in comments that you take edibles. Weed is illegal in the UK, sadly. I smoked like a trooper at college, but I have to be a good boy now. I do find CBD and 5-HTP helps with the butterflies.
@Clavius_42 I went through a real rough beginning of the year. I had a mental breakdown that lasted a week. Marijuana should be legal everywhere! Unfortunately CBD doesn't do anything for me, it must be with THC. Mostly use it for sleep but have a few fun ones I like
@EllyOnTheGo I hope you're doing better and more brighter days ahead. I had a bit of a breakdown when I was diagnosed type 1 Diabetic. That's what kicked-off my anxiety and depression. Weed got me through the death of a dear friend in my early 20's. I agree: it should be legal everywhere!
@Clavius_42 I have Fanconi Anemia (bone marrow failure) and Chronic Kidney Disease. Being on dialysis is hard on the body. I sometimes get aches and itch a lot from dry skin. The gummies help me sleep and also relieve some of the side effects of dialysis
@EllyOnTheGo You are a warrior.
@Clavius_42 Aw, you are too!
@EllyOnTheGo Testify.
