I think I am experiencing (menopausal) depression now. I just fell into a hole for a few days, brain fog, no way out. Trying all the tools I have, Human contact appears to be the big one for me.
I can't say I relate to menopausal depression, but depression and cptsd. I'm glad to hear your friend helped a little, it's not easy to push through the depression especially while dissasociating, if someone hasn't felt that, they can't understand how far we can drift. It feels too cliche or not enough to say that I believe in you and your ability to deal with this but also don't want that to sound like you can't just let yourself feel it or can't help it. It's okay not to be okay. But I do hope tomorrow is more than okay for you. I'm so glad you shared poetry, it's hard to label as such when you don't feel like an actual poet. I'm rambling now but remember you are seen, heard and appreciated.
Thank you so much my friend. Understanding the deep parts of disassociating isn’t something a lot of people can understand. I appreciate you.
I understand the it’s okay to not be okay, that seems to be the latest t-shirt phrase. My issue is feeling okay to be okay. I’m always waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Yeah, that human connection can be helpful. Tricky because of wanting to isolate during depression and not feeling up to doing anything but helpful.

I've definitely felt this. Thanks so much for posting.
Thank you for validating, I appreciate you!
