Feeling alone, miserable - depression patterns

Posted by Janelle on March 21, 2002, at 0:57:13

I've been in and out of depression/anxiety for years now, but this past year has been particularly bad. I've had either a day or a few in a row where I basically don't get out of bed except to eat (sometimes I don't even do that) or use the bathroom, and I've also done the *stay in bed* thing for several WEEKS at a time. I get to the point where I basically cannot function beyond survival mode. Needless to say, when this happens I get even more anxious.
From the posts I read on here, people are struggling yet y'all sound so much more together than I am when I get really depressed.
Is there ANYONE out there who goes through periods where they basically can't get out of bed? Any feedback, words of wisdom or support greatly appreciated.
