Depression Euphemisms

I’m not doing my best.
I’m happy to be here- that is what I say when someone says- hey Julie! How are you?
I’m having a tough day.
It’s not a great day, but I’m happy to see you!
I’m using my treatment plan!
It’s chasing me today.
It’s lurking.

There are many more. Usually, I just say- “I’m really depressed today.” or, “Yesterday was really tough.”

Since I wrote Get it Done When You’re Depressed I feel better- I can visualize the list of tips in the front of the book and pick one when the days are tough.

Bla. Dumb depression. Terrible depression! But I will not let it ruin my life. The days may be difficult, but I will keep going- always.
