Depression is back and I hate it

Had a good run for like 8 months where I felt normal. Got my hopes up that maybe it was gone for good. But this past week everything feels heavy again. Waking up is hard. Playing with the kids feels like a chore. I know I need to get back on medication but I keep putting it off hoping it passes. Part of me knows that's stupid. How do you guys handle it coming back?

Depression lying to you about being gone for good is classic depression. Reach out to someone today if you haven't already. You don't have to white knuckle through this alone.

That must feel crushing after finally having some good months. I'm sorry you're going through this again. Have you been able to get back in touch with your therapist or doctor?

8 months is real progress though, even if it doesn't feel like it right now. The fact that you got there once means you can get there again. Hang in there man.
