"Every time someone suggests a solution to a problem you say "yes but that won't work" "
I heard myself in that statement so very loud and clearly. Thank you for the great post & gentle reminders.

So very true!
Depression changes the way you see and experience the world, it can cloud and or leave holes in your memory, turn a perfectly average day into something really terrible because it's almost impossible when your depressed to recognise that you are projecting the way you feel, into every experience, and onto everyone your interacting with.
Depression can also deceive you into believing you've been handling every thing just fine but your usually not. When your depressed it's common to avoid dealing with things in your work and private life, even very important things. It can be harder to get out of bed, bath, eat properly, make decisions, look after your kids or pets, open the mail, answer the phone, go out with friends, harder to not be impulsive and self reward, make you react with tears, anger, guilt etc etc etc
Depression unrecognised, only spirals in one direction until something or someone leads you to get the help you need!
Look after your mental health.......JJ
