Overselling my mood
I'm off one of my depression meds right now because I waited too long to call the doctor for a new set of refills. Needless to say, I feel like crap emotionally and all I want to do is sleep, but that's not practical.
I ran into a woman I know from church today while getting groceries, and she asked how I was. I don't like to lie, so I told her I was tired and depressed, but I also didn't want her to worry about or pity me, so I tried to say it pleasantly. Except I overdid it and told her I was depressed with a big fake smile and in a giddy sounding voice. And now I feel like a weirdo. And I'll see her again tomorrow. #fml #Pretendingtobefine #Depression #Depressionmeds #embarrasing #ChronicDepression #ClinicalDepression
