What's your "depression food?" Like, the thing you default to "making" when you need to eat but don't have the spirit to cook at all.
Mine is a plain cheese sandwich. American singles on bread. Can't even muster the will to spread some butter on there and grill it up for a comforting grilled cheese.
That was lunch. Will probably be dinner, too.
It's 8pm on Monday. I played pickleball for 4 hours yesterday. I have not showered since. I am pretty confident I have not brushed my teeth today. I was a terrible mom and the boys had their faces glued to one screen or another for pretty much every waking hour today.
What the fuck is happening to me. I have history of, like, long depressive episodes. Months at a time. I've never experienced such wildly erratic mood shifts before. One day I'm fine and have my shit together, the next day I'm spiraling. Sometimes it's hour by hour.
I know I'm not unique and I see so many of you struggling too.
Today was just a fucking loss.
Pastina. Always pastina. There is a good recipe out there to use up left over pasta too.
Raw oats, mixed into yogurt.
