No. I'll say it. I'm slogging knee deep through a depression right now. I get down in the fall when it rolls in, and I stay that way until winter comes. It's an outside depression, not something I can deal with well. But right now it's feeding my own depression. I was in a really low spot a few years back, but I managed to recover. But I didn't beat it. It was always there, in the background.And these last couple of months have been hard. My insecurities, my doubts, are all just fuel for the fire now. And I know where I'm headed. Every day I get worse and worse. And I'm doing the best I can to fight it, but I can't. Last time, I had a goal, a reason to keep going. This time, I don't. It's only a matter of days before I start to get really down, and my perception of things shifts.Today I am angry, perpetually, because I'm trying to fight it. I'm trying to stand up, and do something. And none of it is working. But I'm stubborn. So, by the end of the day, or the evening, I'll feel burnt out out, beaten. And I'll go to sleep early, in the hopes that tomorrow will be better.And I know it won't. I'll get caught in the same trap, over and over.
don't think about it, go off and do other things and eventually it'll hit you. That usually works for me

Is there something about Autumn?
QuoteIs there something about Autumn?It's the light. And the way everything is. I know exactly when it's Autumn because I feel low as soon as I look at the environment. I can't explain it well enough. When I look around me in Autumn, I am uneasy, very much so. It's an anxiety, as I look through the trees with a thousand yard stare, they've gone grey and cold. Even the sky, on the brightest days, is hollow. I've gone through all this before, but this year, I've had too many troubles happen at once and too many worries.

If you start feeling stressed then at least control your breathing; deep, slow breaths. Your brain physically can't remain distressed if you do that.
