Isolation and depression: Scared of the coming winter

Marjou, thank you so much for reaching out. I just told Kim that i was having a horrible day today, mind tailspinning, feeling tired and useless. I truly keep all of the suggestions in my journal, and will try them as I can. I asked my husband for help today, and he just says "I've got nothing". I am ashamed of the feelings of pity I display and want to be strong for my children and grandchildren, but I look in the mirror and really don't like what I see. I hope tomorrow will be a more positive day. I apologize for this post.

@jamsie I can so relate to what you've written. I wonder if your husband and my ex are related (just a little joke)!
No apologies are needed here. I think part of depression for me is shame for what I feel or don't feel or for not being/feeling "normal". The positive side of COVID is that "normal" people are getting to somewhat experience what we deal with every day. I have found this to be a safe place to express oneself. So please keep posting for that is a good thing you are doing for yourself.
