Weekends
Hey everyone. It’s strange that on the weekends I actually feel even more depressed than during the week. While I’m in school still going to finish my bachelor’s degree, there are some students I have made friends with and see during the weekdays. I live alone and pretty much keep to my house over the weekends. I used to have my brother, sister-in-law and 3 nephews living in my same town but they moved over Christmas break to New Mexico. So I get a lonely feeling more often than not.
My 3 Nephews:
I feel more optimistic during the weekdays as well. I procrastinate my homework until the last few hours on Sunday evenings even though I have 3 day weekends. As long as I am doing something productive every day I feel okay. I at least have to leave the house once a day. Otherwise I feel gross and hide away in my house.
So strange how depression sucks you in daily and holds you hostage until you choose to make a difference in your day. People without depression don’t understand the experience and think someone would be able to snap out of it but it’s not that easy. If it were, I don’t think there’d be as many people depressed.
