Losing Touch.

Lately I've been feeling really depressed. It goes up and down, but this time it hasn't been going up. Every time I turn around, I find myself deteriorating. I feel like I'm losing touch with reality. I can't even function properly anymore. I don't really seem to care about myself or anything around me like I used to. I have my good and my bad days, but this has been going on too long to be a bad day or bad week. The medication doesn't seem to help anymore. I just feel stuck.

Hi Mattie,

Sorry about the way you've been feeling lately. Seems like depression is attacking us all at this time. Karen is right, maybe you need an adjustment in your meds or you probably need a change.

There are also other things you can try to help you cope with your depression that may be helpful. Try doing thing to distract you from how you feeling even if it's just a movie or a walk to clear you thoughts.

Hope you feel better.
