I didnt go into work today...
my routine of sleep is definitely out of whack..
I know that things will get better..
I had a good talk to one of my best friends last night.. and although she is far away.. it was good to have her on the phone.
She has grown up with depression, as her Mum had it - so she has quite a bit of insight -
Im finding it hard to be alone at the moment.
Im home alone, and am sure will feel better once my Mum and Dad come back.. just to have some company in the house.
The Greatest Challenge for me is Self Acceptance, that I have depression, and that I can only do what I can do.
To not have high expectations of myself.

Being by yourself is always hard when you have depression. It puts so much of you out of whack. I know this just from the two night shifts hubby does - I think people are breaking in, I don't sleep because I am by myself in the bed, I am awake alot when he comes home from work. Glad you had a good chat with your friend and she was able to relate to the things you spoke about. You are lucky to have that. You need to get the sleep back to normal and I hope that happens when you parents come home.

Go Blue!!!!

It is getting to be a problem not going to work... hope things get better as going to work helps with maintaining a routine...

I hope your parents come home soon... you seem to be in need of some help...

take care
