I totally missed the part about you being sick! (can I blame today's head injury for that?)
A couple of weeks back, I think I may have written about how when I am sick, it is hard to fight off the depression. Partly psychological--I start to feel like "here we go again, another thing to get in the way of functioning normally", which is just the same old confirmation of negative beliefs about myself--and partly physical--the body is fatigued, fighting off infection, etc., and those feelings seem so similar to the physical experience of depression, it is easy to have the boundaries blur.
