Emotional weather

[sesquipedality]

It's back again - everything seems grey and pointless, and I have no desire to do anything. I'm clinging on better than I usually do - housework is still getting done, but work on the project and on sorting my life out a bit has more or less stopped. I wish I knew why I so often felt like this - why it's so difficult for me to gain enjoyment out of life. I'm just fed up with clinging on like this, crippled and unable to accomplish anything.

I have what is known as chronic depression resistant to treatment. Which means that whatever is up with my brain chemistry, they don't know how to fix it with drugs. Thanks for your thoughts though.

Ouch! I'm not sure what to say now. I'd offer sympathy, except that you're probably sick of it by now. (I have depression myself, and can't imagine how awful treatment-resistant depression must be.) But it's there if you want it.
