Yes, my actual medical depression is still properly treated, it's just a combo of job dissatisfaction and my girlfriend has started work after finishing college, and she works 3x 12 hr days Sat-Mon so my schedule is out of whack and I've trashed my already poor sleep hygiene trying to find a new routine. Doing my daily posts is the only thing occuring at "the proper time" anymore, so it at least syncs me up at the start of each day, and the happy comments throughout the day give me things to look forward to.
I caught the killer head cold she's been having for the last week as well, and it seems my body decided to speedrun it and I hardly left the bed over the weekend.
Everyone is always so supportive in the community, I'm always so glad I decided that if nobody else was going to make it active that it was up to me. I spend a lot of time on it, but I feel it is productive and the positive feedback I get makes the work feel more useful than any actual job I've had.
Oooff, that's harsh. My girlfriend is currently in the process of finishing up her PhD, and my job recently exploded in my face, so I can relate a little to parts of what you're going through. At least good to hear you're dealing with the cold efficiently, even if it's hell while it's going on!
My substitute partner at work today was more sympathetic than my normal coworker, so that made a big difference. I'm feeling pretty good compared to the weekend, but my throat is screwed up and my decongestant seems to have worm off after 8 hours as opposed to the 12 hours of relief promised to me by the box. 🤧
