Should be feeling good

Things are going pretty good in my life but I still feel depressed. I feel a lot of fatigue, just want to sleep all the time (well except for now it 4:45 in the morning). I am pleased that I was able to save my house from foreclosure and I have a little extra money to do some much needed repairs but I still feel crummy. What's wrong with me? I mean my life isn't really that bad.. so why do I feel bad?

I agree with Pitmom, talk to the doc. Get a physical... That should give you a place to start...

Hugs, Karen...

KC,

Perhaps you need to see a pyschiatrist, for other specialist to find out the cause of the depression. Situational, trauma, chemical imbalance etc....

Coping skills can help all forms of depression. Medication helps but not 100%. We all have to work at our happiness, it just does not happen.

Being mindful of kindness to others, compassion to ourselves, noticing what is going on around us and getting involved helps.

Gratitude journals are a great way to start concentrating on happiness, one or two things a day, the list with grow with habit and joy.

Peace
