Yup. At my lowest point I just wasn’t even hungry so I didn’t eat. And I didn’t shower or brush my teeth because I couldn’t even find the motivation to do anything besides lay in bed and cry
I feel like I’m there now but I’m coming up! We got this
@FruitLoop Yeah don’t worry, I pulled through and I thought I would never ever be happy again. Still battling my demons but I’m no where near that place anymore. You can do this :)
At certain points I think about showering but I don't. The only thing that I keep consistent are the meals I eat, though OCD makes me lose my appetite sometimes, and I talk to friends and family. I even forget that I need to shower unless I go to the bathroom. There's days where I don't want to do anything, and there's other days where I feel like I'm free. I don't go outside, but I've always been a shut in this way.
I completely relate to this, it’s a struggle of some positivities but the negatives return some days and I isolate myself completely. I applaud myself when I finally get a shower in
@FruitLoop Yeah, like I'm thinking about it but I can't bring myself to do it but when I do I feel like I'm new again. I feel like I scrubbed a lot of guilt and shame and disgust off of me. Some days are just better than others for me but today is thankfully one of the better ones
@BigGip09 Im glad today was a better day for ya! I agree that it feels like washing and scrubbing the shame off me,, I finally took a shower today after this comment and I hope you know that I appreciate your response sm more than ya know! I’m glad others can relate I definitely feel less alone
@FruitLoop Thank you for telling me all this! One of the best things I can get out of my life is helping people feel better and get better in terms of whatever they want to do for the better! Thank you for leaving this message, and I thank you for helping me by being here.
@BigGip09 I wish you the best! I feel very good about tonight and just talking to others makes me so happy, you are a great person that you like to help others, I wish to do the same. No matter what anyone tells you, you are great and will do great things I can tell! Have a great day tomorrow as well I pray that you do❤️

Me too, I’m glad that not just me. I’ve been feeling bad about it but I am recovering from this and hope for the positives!
@soup Art is such a relieving activity I get to every time I can! I love to hear that you got to it! Art is expression just like writing.. relief and progressing!
i’m going through this currently
You’re not alone
Damm. I struggle a lot with this and it’s real bad cause it’s not a good way to be living. Hate depression.
Hate it too. I struggle a lot with this as well if you need to talk then I am here :)
