I started Zoloft almost 2 months ago. It’s helped with my anxiety and depression but I’m worried I’m feeling the emotional numbing/blunting. I say this because 1) my car died and I did not care to call AAA until my bf insisted and 2) I have an interview for a job in 2 hrs I really want yet I cannot care to interview prep. I just feel so blasé about everything. I took off work thinking I’d interview prep but so far have just lounged around watching TV. Any advice? I need to get my head straight.

My therapist just told me I'm depressed..do you ever feel like they tell you things you hear a lot or could have figured out on your own? Like take care of yourself, it's ok to feel such and such, etc. I'm still newer to therapy so wondering if that's the common experience? Do you ever have moments where you're like wow that actually is eye opening and I wouldn't have gotten that from reading self help books and websites etc?

I ordered a Tesla model 3 SR in April and I am able to take delivery this weekend, however I’m now unsure of whether it’s the right move financially. I have a lease on a 2020 BMW X3 that will end next month and was wondering if I should just buy that out and drive it for a few years. If it makes a difference I’m in SoCal so gas is $$$, but no EV charging in my apartment.

Tesla: $830/month + charging and insurance
BMW: $600/m + $150 gas + maint/insurance

Any thoughts? Is the Tesla worth it?

I’ve been living with various levels of depression for many years. I’ve been steady on my medication and, for the most part, I’ve stayed pretty level. But man, in this new world of being unemployed and uncertain, I’m really struggling. I really don’t think I’m suicidal. But I find myself thinking a lot about what would happen if I died. Stuff like the fact that nobody outside of my family and maybe one or two people would even come to my funeral. I’m feeling very unimportant. Anyone relate? 😕

Having trouble losing weight and looking for suggestions. My standard caloric amount to maintain weight is about 2k (male/36/185lbs).
