Thank you for sharing! I hope all of the good things you’re doing for yourself start to make you feel a bit better soon. I’ve been fighting off a depressive episode myself for a couple weeks - I can feel myself being irritable with my boyfriend and not being able to connect emotionally in the same way. For me, it feels like an inch of bulletproof glass between me and my own feelings. I can see them, but not touch. I’m trying to make sure I feed myself, as food becomes hard during these times.

I hope we both feel better soon! Thanks for sharing! 💜

Allison, this post came into my inbox at the perfect time. I'm in the thick of a depressive episode, and really struggling with emotional blunting. I know I should be enjoying myself on vacation, but I don't care about anything! Reading you reassure yourself that it won't last forever, has reassured me too. I'm going to be proactive for future me, she deserves it. Thank you for sharing, and I hope you get back to yourself soon❤️ xx
