Caught in between burnout and (self-)neglect.

    I can’t find the tweet, but I’ll paraphrase it.

    Before you say you have depression, first ask yourself if you are:

    getting enough exercise,

    getting enough water,

    getting enough sleep,

    getting enough sunshine.

    Because if you are having trouble with basic self care it usually indicates that you have depression.

    I was only able to start doing these things again once my doctor and I found the right medicinal treatment, and it took many tries (and to be honest several doctors). I’ve had this shit off and on for decades. Sucks.

    If you can afford to seek treatment, please do.
