How y'all coping with depression during this pandemic thing
I do my best to distract myself with music, movies and books
when I go to sleep and my thoughts come running in is when s*** gets tough. I also got night terrors and cold sweat. I almost loathe sleep.
other than that I do my best to keep myself busy....I cant stand silence

I try reading books , and watching shows. It works so far
Nothing worse than being depressed and having a s***ty day on top of it. Like everyday s***ty in my head already. Why the world gotta make s*** worse?
I'm scared the next doctors appointment I have they're gonna put me in a psych ward.

i just breath slowly and close my eyes
but let me ask does it take long to fall a sleep sometimes it takes me an hour i have been told that once you finish watching tv or the computer it can take up to like 45/hour
I struggle everyday bro until I start meditating. Yesterday I took melatonin and fell asleep fast and had vivid dreams which I find cool. So maybe look into that.
For the past 4 nights every time I'm about to fall asleep I get this weird sense of guilt. Like I didn't put out enough effort that day, or maybe I did put the effort in but it simply wasn't good enough and I should have done better. It's as if my conscience is telling me I don't deserve to rest. I end up reading or doing something you'd consider "productive" and only end up getting a few hours of sleep. I'm not sad or depressed - I actually feel fine, but I also feel inadequate.

Was a decent day. The intervals of time between moments of mindfulness seem to be shrinking again. The cycle continues.
I love you all.
One of the most painful & annoying traits of mine, is randomly seeing someone and feeling an overwhelming amount of sadness for them. For absolutely no reason. Like someone as...irrelevant, as a random background character in a tv show.
Does anyone know anything about this? The closest thing I can find is hyper empathy but I don't think that's it, I feel like I would need at least some kind of tipoff that they were suffering. Maybe it is, and I need to focus on the feeling more instead of pushing it away. That's one thing I forgot to ask my therapist while I was still seeing her. I've also read it could be projection but it doesn't add up due to some of the situations I've experienced this with.
I hate this. I've dealt with this since maybe 10? It's very rare but when it hits it hurts, sometimes physically in my core. Like, I got my own s*** to deal with man! You probably doing "better" than me in life why am I carrying your hypothetical pain
Most recent case is with a f***ing O'Driscoll from RDR
What is wrong with me son
This year has been a test for me. Feels like with each passing year I dont get anywhere near better
