How Are You Feeling Right Now?

I keep swinging between "life feels meaningless and I want to give up" and "I'm slightly less depressed now so I feel like I should actually try to get better, but I feel too exhausted to actually do anything meaningful". It's mentally/emotionally exhausting. I feel too depressed/exhausted to change my life but way too afraid to attempt suicide, so I feel stuck, and nothing I do to try to rest feels restful.

If all else fails, there’s always the can of gas and book of matches in my trunk. Hell, things don’t even need to fail; if I get bored theres always the can of gas and book of matches in my trunk.

I’m going to my car for a minute. I just have to do a, uh, a thing.
I’m disappointed. I know you have more imagination than that. I self censored my earlier post because I was going to make a joke about criminal activity that I decided to not joke about.

But I was thinking a little blackmail can be a good form of revenge or retaliation.

Officially Monday since it’s past midnight, but still I wanna say I really had no idea how freaking gloomy weekends/Sundays could be before coming to Europe…. The gloomy Sunday song my professor talked about only makes so much sense now.
I know that song. I don’t exactly know what it’s about. It could mean many things - maybe working with one’s own depression, maybe the shared trauma of marginalized groups struggling to win civil rights, maybe straight up universal human grief. It’s different every time I listen to it.

I get that. Only too well. I know the textbook answers of what to do. However, depression is not rational. If it were, it would not be a disorder! So trying to motivate myself with logic and evidence when I feel like there’s so much pain that it would be a relief if my skull would just explode from the pressure - this tends to be much harder than the textbook answers ever account for.
 
I'm new here. I'm coming from SaSu. I want and need to recover. I'm trying my best to fight my anxiety and getting over my trigger. And I feel like I need some sort of people or community or support whenever I started getting consumed again by anxiety and bad thoughts. Being scared is exhausting, but I try to walk out of home and do some chores at the moment.
