I've been feeling a lot of depression numbness lately. I feel so apathetic about everything. I can definitely relate to all of these right now. It just feels like nothing I do makes me feel excited or happy or anything. It's like everything feels hollow.

There's no need to reply or reach out. I just wanted to share and raise awareness for this aspect of depression for Mental Health Month. 💛

If you don't follow realdepressionproject on Insta, I highly recommend it. They have so much amazing info.

It’s been a year and a half and I think I’m finally coming out of this dark place. But itms been a lot of times and there will always be consequences.

I hate myself so much for not being able to stand up against it. I hate me so much for letting this affect me when I used to be a functional person despite anything that could happen to me. I hate myself for being weak.

I worry all the time, asking myself "what is wrong with me" and "why I can't be normal" and why I can't get things accomplished that I want to. Then I see posts like this and remember that there's nothing wrong with me and I'm not alone. Depression is so much more than being sad and even though I know that, I still need to be reminded of how many areas of life depression can effect. I need to show myself some grace and compassion.

I hope sharing these images can help someone else who may feel the same. They are from realdepressionproject on Insta. If you don't follow you absolutely should!

Last time I was on Prednisone I wrote and wrote a wrote, thinking it would relieve me of pains of the past and release the busyness my brain felt. In some ways it helped, in others not so much. Honestly, if someone had told me my mid-forties were going to be this emotionally difficult I probably wouldn’t be alive today.

I was reading a few slides from the realdepressionproject (check it out on Instagram) about the self-gaslighting depression sufferers do and it hit home. This month I have had very little desire to do anything. I’m struggling to care about anything more than, “somebody has to do this”. Being sick hasn’t helped so here I am again on Prednisone trying to get my body to fight and I just feel like why? How long do you keep trying and trying and fighting and fighting for fruitless outcomes? When do you start to realize that everything you’ve worked for is meaningless and that your life is nothing more than bad decisions that you’re constantly being judged for?

I feel like I’ve been kidding myself all this time. Joke is on me.
