#u so sweet n kind fir thinking of me🥲

I used to think of myself the way you think of yourself. 'I just don't have it in me to get x and y done' . The thing is that's a lie that your depression tells you, you can do it!!! Most days I struggle to get stuff done too. What I do to get through this is consider your hobbies a reward. You like to be on tumblr a lot, use it as a reward. Take baby steps. Tell yourself if I pick up these two rooms then I can get on tumblr. If I clean the bathroom then I can watch TV. If I clean the floors then I can (insert other hobby). If you spend 30 min- 1 hour a day doing things around the house it will stay relatively clean. Also for groceries, make a list. I got a pad with a magnet to stick on the fridge. Whenever I notice something is low I put it on the list. Bring a pen to the store and mark it off as you go. It may seem like a lot and overwhelming but I promise it will help with your depression when you get it done and realize you too are capable! Lots of people have these thought processes and spirals, the only way to break it is to assert yourself and try even when you don't feel like it. I only send this meaning the best and I hope it helps.

Oh love these thoughts anon 💖

I so should probably do that it is a great idea I just need to find a good balance for how much I can presure myself to complete the tasks, or steps in a task for a reward. But also actually completing it and not let one mire week go past with most not being completed. Need to find a system that works sorta ok for me when it comes to these things.

Buying groceries is the worst :/ Like, I always mess it up and I dont even understand why. I usually have a lit in my notes app on the phone but gave to go back to the store like three or four times because *insert something that makes sense here*. And it just make me feel terrible like it not that I don't read the list and compare with my basket it just idk.. im obviously not paying attention, but whyyyy?! Its the worst.

Depression is so dumb and like yeees I know it depression and other stuff that nestle in to everything else but I still get all "why cant I even complete the simplest tasks" when I probably could if it wasnt for the dark stuff in the head

I'm so greatful for your ask just the sweetest ❤️
