I'm sorry :( I have been through these phases before and I just want to reassure you that it's just a phase and you can/will move through it. It's true that some more exercise (and better sleep and nutrition) can all help with depression, for sure. But don't be too hard on yourself, it will all work out!

You and me both, brother.

What’s going on? You aren’t alone. Try to spend the day going things you like. Try something help ground you mentally, working out, yoga, prayer, etc. and remember it always gets bettet

May Allah make it easy for you.

I try to look out for small things in each day which give me some joy

Hang in there - call friends and family share with them

If not try therapy - Alma has good Muslim therapist

This too shall pass

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.

This will be the 3rd transfer cycle that’s getting canceled, it just really sucks...what’s worse is I didn’t see my doctor today, just the sono tech, (cont’d)
