Bipolar Tough Day… just keep going Julie

3:36 pm Bipolar Treatment, Depression and bipolar disorder, Get It Done When You're Depressed

All right Julie, you just keep going…

This is what I say to myself when I wake up in a down mood. My mind starts to go into the- “what’s the point?” direction- and I make myself stop it.

First of all, not everything has to have a point and not everything I do has to have great meaning.

Secondly, I have an illness that makes me doubt everything when I’m depressed.

The best thing to do is to just keep going. I can find meaning AFTER I’ve done something.

This helps me GET THINGS DONE!

Julie
