[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 174293, member: 84"] Like Sue, when I'm sliding fast toward bottom.......or suddenly find myself there, I also do the one goal per day thing. Doesn't even necessarily have to be something useful. Just to do one thing for the purpose of doing it. Another thing, when I'm in the depths, I tend to avoid others to the point of isolation. Worst thing possible. If I'd been single, I might never have come out of the depressions. Because family has played a vital role in not allowing me to completely isolate myself. There have been many times when just forcing myself to bathe is my one thing for the day. I know it sounds gross, but bathing is just not important when I'm in the depths. I have discovered along the way that being around little ones helps. (at least for me) I can't stay blah around a child under three, even if the depression is severe. And the little smiles they manage to pull out of me seem to help me on my way back up. ((((hugs)))) [/QUOTE]
