Q: Mr. Depression-The Ups and Downs
Hi Robert,
That is the natural cycle of life: we're not always up, or always down. Hopefully after a low mood we can bring ourselves up, for some of us it will take longer to do so.
There are certains days I will stay in bed until eleven o'clock in the morning, by the way. Mostly on the weekends when I want or need a free day to do nothing.
P.S. _ Sometimes I would rather stay in bed than go to work.
Cheers,
Christina
I am that way, too. Some mornings I lie there letting the time crawl by w/o getting out of bed and it feels very decadent and dissolute. I enjoy it. And since I don't work, I am free to do so. But I try not to make a habit of it. Sometimes, apathy becomes a solution, as Morgan Freeman said in "Seven." I don't want it to be my solution.
But then other days (more rarely) I wake up feeling fabulous, as if I were well-equipped to accomplish anything I set my will to. And maybe I am...on those days. That is when I do my grocery shopping, go to movies, visit friends, wash clothes, go to the bank, etc. It seems that I never run out of energy...on those days. I wish there were more of them but that is something over which I have no control.
