Do you ever get annoyed when someone says hello or good morning? Maybe you don’t like it when someone says have a nice day?
I know that when I did depression all those greetings would really bother me. To “Good Morning” I would just think “Umm yes it is morning, good is pushing it. To “Have a Nice Day” I would think “Too late for that”. Can you relate?
Friendly people would often result in a big eye roll. I would not respond. I would sigh to myself. I would think, “really”?
I would try to smile and respond in kind, but it was really tough. Then I would feel bad that I had that response. It would bother me that I had that response. Why can’t I just be like everyone else? If you ever feel that way, you really should consider ditching depression. How I did it and other options are available here:
