I woke up sick and crying- darn depression and I was sick for much of the day. It’s always my goal to go to bed feeling better than when I woke up. Well, that won’t be hard tonight!
I told all of my friends that I’m sick. That way they know what to say when I call and cry. They say, “Julie, you’re depressed. It’s hard for you to see reality right now. ” And I know they are right.
I recently wrote about quitting the things that are making you ill. I know what is making me ill and I’m phasing it out of my life. I will get better and stay that way!

I hope the blog helps you keep going when you are depressed. Bipolar depression wants you to stop what you are doing until you are sitting around like a lump watching TV and eating potato chips. It doesn’t have to be that way. Ask for help, read Get it Done When You’re Depressed, ask a friend to come get you, go to a support group, check out www.meetin.org, do anything! Julie
Get it Done When You’re Depressed is the book I use the most in my own treatment plan. I think you will love it. It’s on amazon.com in hard copy and on the Kindle. It’s my bipolar companion book. Click here to visit amazon.com to read more about the book. I wish I could give this book to every depressed person in the world.
