Venting I'm at the stage where I don't see a point in brushing teeth or showering anymore

[KillingPain267]

I don't think my mind has much longer before I just face a wall

I really feel you. Sometimes it can be a really hard effort just to go take a shower. So I just don't do it. Unfortunately it makes me feel really disgusted by myself and my depression even worse.

Anything that involves getting out of bed is a lot to ask of me. Sometimes I start to go crazy in bed, so I move to the couch for a while. That's the extent of my activities most days.

I used to keep myself super busy with work and house projects all day long, now I'm practically dead. Severe depression is hell.

Same for me, I try to do it once a week.

The same for me. Usually in bed, sometimes I take a little walk to the kitchen or the sofa for a while then back to bed. Really tragic.

I use to run about 10 times a week for about 70 - 100 km in total. Now I can't even take a longer walk.

Really for the first time, I'm struggling more. I hate pain though so, the fear of infection etc. tends to motivate me to do something. Could you maybe do less proper jobs on the really difficult days? Use mouthwash. Use biodegradable cleansing wipes? That's going to be the extent of my effort this morning- well, this afternoon now- seeing as I'm up so late.

Same. My family came over for the entire time between Christmas and today, and I had to FIGHT myself to get up even just at 1pm for "breakfast" for which I just sat there trying not to explode because they wouldn't just shut up.
