For dependant workers, how do you manage excuses for not coming to work again due to depression?

It is so hard to manage work when you are depressed. I take medication and follow a therapy, but sometime it still becomes overwhelming. Today I spend 4 hours to get up and keep going in life. What advice can you give me? What do you do when you wake up again and feel that you just can't manage another day?

Ugh... Mornings... #wakingup

Anyone else hate early mornings?!? I have two of my four kids that are always early risers, ready for the day, and super pumped about it. I honestly don’t even want to look at, talk to, or hear a sound until 10am at least. However, being a SAHM that doesn’t exist. I have been so e haunted more than usual lately. It’s been some serious BS. Plus I live in AZ. It still break 90-100 + and that is what I call some Bull Shit! I hate the heat. I just want a week long nap, free food delivery, and some damn quiet. #ChronicPain #ChronicFatigue #tiredaf #momcation #InvisibleIllness #IrritableBowelSyndromeIBS #InflammatoryBowelDiseaseIBD #CRPSWarrior

Mattress Protector

I go to bed.
Finally!
I wake up.
...That's unfortunate.

I cannot move.
I'm so tired.
Always tired.
I have things to do...
They won't get done.
I'm stuck here,
In my bed
Trapped inside my head.

Thoughts are racing,
Make it stop!
Filled with dread.
...Time to get going.

(This isn't the best poem I've written, but it helped me have the motivation to at least shower, so I have no regrets right now. I totally will later though, if we're honest 😂. Let's see what I get done today! ) #wakingup #stuck #stuckinbed #Depression #Anxiety #SuicidalThoughts #SuicidalIdeation #OneHourAtATime

Getting out of bed is the hardest thing I have to face every day and now causing issues in my daily life. Any tips? #wakingup #Motivation

This leads to stress and aggravating first thing in the morning as I am always running late and getting angry/frustrated in the morning. It’s now causing problems in my relationship because sometimes I take it out on him when we are running late. It caused a huge fight this morning, leaving my crying and even more frustrated. My SO even said that I shouldn’t be blaming my mental health on the fact I’m not a morning person. Leaving me to feel even more lost and feeling like he cannot understand how I’m suffering.. how can I help him to understand? How can we move forward from this? Help..?
