What do you do when you're depressed??

Never realized it until I was in a really bad work situation, but I sleep! Lots!!! I guess it's just my way of avoiding things.

What do you do?

I'm a sleeper too. I just curl into bed and don't want to leave.

When I have a really bad day, I go shopping.

when I'm REALLY depressed, I tend to overeat and not take care of myself in general

I *wish* I could sleep when I'm down, usually that's when I have my worse boughts of insomnia

when I get depressed I like to go shopping. I spend a fortune and regret it and then analyze why I did it. Or if It is to cold I veg in front of the TV and drink my hot cocoa. Even if it is 98 degrees out I drink Hot cocoa

I eat and watch tv - total avoidance.

Unless its something like finding a job in which case I panic and cant sit still untill I have gotten something done

When I'm REALLY depressed, I sleep. When I'm mildly depressed, I eat.

I used to chain smoke ... and drink ... along with staying in bed & watching TV.

I also rearranged the furniture a lot ...

Wendy, it's funny you mention that about the furniture... I also clean ALOT when I'm depressed.

I guess it made me feel I had power ... I could completely change a room!!!! (But boy, did I hurt my back and scratch the hardwood floors in my old apts!).


I really don't think I have been *depressed* since I moved in with DH (we used to have a lot of fights/issues when we did not live together) ... I mean, occassionally work would get me down or I had a super dose of baby fever ... and I think pretty much I just stayed in bed ...

Amen. I might add wallow. I can wallow like a champ when I'm feeling blah.

Sending good anti-blah wishes out to everyone!!!

Aw, thanks!!! Funny thing is, I'm not depressed, I was just thinking about it.

I was working with this woman who was just really terrible, very abusive, bi-polar personality, etc. I had taken a pay cut to work with her and I couldn't find a way out. I would get home from work every evening and just crawl into bed. DH (boyfriend at the time) would call me and ask Were you asleep again???!!! It would get to the point where I would have really awful nightmares from oversleeping - I think they call them night terrors or something.

The thing about it was, I didn't realize that I was so depressed until after I had found a new job and moved on...
