Was at the beach with friends and had one really down day there where I didn’t feel happy at all. Since I got back 2.5 days ago I’ve done nothing but watch tv, sleep, and barely eat. I hate this

I’m sorry to hear this. Is there a good friend or family member you can talk to about this? Have you seen a therapist before? When I get down I make myself an easy to do list of 5 items. Just to get moving and feeling some small accomplishments. Also, exercise helps, even if it’s just a 20-minute walk.

Have not seen a therapist before but been thinking about it for a while. It’s just so expensive

I know. I saw a therapist when I was in college through the student health center. Hasn’t been bad enough since I graduated for me to cough up the cash. Start with some of the other suggestions and see if it helps.

PwC OP sounds like clinical depression. See a psychiatrist first, especially if you have depression in the family. Depression is common in high achievers. Nothing of which to be ashamed. Help is out there. Good luck!
