Escaping the depression cycle

Escaping the depression cycle

Hi all,

I've been really struggling lately and everything seems to have piled up over my head. But I realized in the last couple of days my depression is worse than what i thought. It beginning to affect my son and my relationship so I've decided I need to help myself get back to being me.

So every morning I am going to post on this thread what I need to do that day and hopefully by the time I go to bed I will have completed the list or at least most of it.

So even though it is the afternoon here is what I want to do to before I go to bed tonight,

1. Clean the kitchen

2. Make dinner (cereal is not dinner)

3. Actually eat dinner

4. Tidy up dinner mess

5. Put bin out

6. Shower, face routine

7. Go to bed before 10pm
