First i have to struggle to force myself to make the phone call and set a doctor appointment. Then as soon as i set an appointment and know i have to be somewhere, i start having anxiety days before the date of appointment. Then i have to force myself not to cancel the appointment. Then i hope i sleep ok and then it takes me about 3 hours after i wake up, to get ready and force myself out to go. I'm not able to eat. I only go to the doctor or to the store and then back home.

Actually there are a few of us.. i do the same. Mine is social anxiety .a fear of others how they will see me .And when im out its road radge. i don't take care of myself like i use to. I am only ok when im isolated. But that is the key .you are not giving up. You make your self do it ..At least it pushs through the day.

@A MyDepressionTeam Member as far as money you can get extra help from local defacts family children services. They can help with food stamps and medicare. If your income is low. it is worth a try.

I love to isolate and do absolutely nothing. However I faithfully keep all my doctors appointments because the antidepressants have made me feel so much better. I don’t want my doctor to cut me off because I’m noncompliant and don’t show up for appointments. The staff at my doctors office are kind and professional so I’m more than happy to go. Now if I could just get excited about eating a healthy diet and exercising I would be happier with myself. I am just so lazy!!
