Slipping Again?

[Atonement]

This may be more of a vent. But any advice, more than welcome.

I feel like I'm slipping back into depression. I'm medicated, I'm in therapy, and I am treating myself well. But, I have no appetite, I have no labido, I am secluding myself unintentionally, I am not sleeping well, I am lethargic, and I am self harming less critical, but more often. I don't know what steps to take. I feel like I've done all i can possible. School, okay. Extra cirricular, okay. Sports, a release. Friends... kinda okay. having troubles, but hell, nothing to make me feel like this. I don't know what to do. Its just so frustrating.

Well, Addison, eventhough you're doing all the right things, are taking meds, and working in therapy, sometimes *it* creeps back. What to do? First, make sure you're talking about it in therapy and see if you and the doc can't figure out where it's coming from, and what to do about it. There's more work to be done there.

Since you're already doing everything already, I'm not sure there's a magic answer here. Just be aware that *it* comes back, and that when it does, you need to acknowledge it, and not give into it. Tolerate the feelings, howver uncomfortable, without resorting to cutting, etc. The goal is tolerance, it takes a while to make it go away forever, and until then, you have to tolerate them. Be extra extra nice to yourself, make sure you're with your Best Bestys, take the steps to tolerate it as best as you can.

I can't say much because I'm going through the same thing, but I'm always a call or a text away.
Even if it takes me a little bit of time to get back to you, I will get back to you.

She is come back, when you don't want to be better. The true is that everything is in your head , and if you don't want to feel good, you will never feel.
So is better first tell me why you have depression conditions !
