You can not SNAP out of depression.. but when you feel a bit better taking advantage of cleaning the house can lift your spirits…endorphines sp from being physical play a big part too..That said onwards and upwards my storage room calls!

I totally agree! It’s like a cycle – when I clean my house I feel better, and when I feel better I feel like cleaning my house!

I hope you keep stepping in the right direction. I keep telling my dh that a messy house is our biggest source of evil right now, and he just thinks that is my stupid excuse, of why I don’t want sex. LOL

I can really relate too.
For me, it was getting started that was always the hardest. And it takes such strength of will to decide to do something when all I would rather do is sit on the sofa and stare. But taking charge of your house is soooo empowering! You’ll be in my thoughts, Ivy, as you beat back the depression and find your path.

I suffer from depression myself and I really can relate to this. I have started taking some supplements that are really helping me because we are without health insurance right now and I can’t afford my normal meds. Feel free to email me and I can send you the info (no worries- I don’t sell or know anyone who sells anything so no spammy spam)

::hugs:: It’s such a catch-22. Too depressed to clean, but cleaning makes things nicer.
Hope you feel better soon! (And unplug your phone if mom’s a buggin ya!)
