Symptoms of depression

I've lost interest in food/eating now. On top of crying almost daily, being tired, not wanting to do anything and other things. My son is the only thing keeping me going. In 5 days I've eaten maybe 4-5 times. Only 2 were meals. The rest were snacks. I have severe depression and anxiety plus minor PTSD.

It can be really rough, especially at this time of the year. As long as you're getting through the day and trying to eat something (even if it's just a snack), it's better than nothing. Take baby steps and reach out to your support systems. Doing little things for yourself can make a huge difference. Have a nice shower, sit with a sun lamp, do a skincare routine, buy yourself a little treat. Sending you both all of the love, I hope it turns around. ❤️❤️

Sounds like you are lacking in Dopamine levels

I've had periods like this. Now my little girl has started solids I try and moke something for both of us to make it easier for me to actually eat something. Sometimes speaking to mental health professionals helps
