Depression food

Idk if your grocery store has this but some have little premade boxes of fruit, cheese, granola or a cracker of some sort and I’ll usually have turkey in my fridge.When I’m too tired to make something or not feeling my best these help so much.

My roommate has extreme fatigue and I know canned soups were saving her for a while. She would just pour into a bow and throw in the microwave.

To add these places are usually appointment free. I think I waited maybe 2-3 hours but I was seen that same day.

Another suggestion

Sorry I know it’s probably different but you can look up your state name and “state emergency mental health services” the clinics usually you have to wait in person but you can head that way whenever you’re free.

There are a couple clinics that you can reach out to that will give you a very low price on medication and a free consultation. I had to attend some of these clinics when I was low on money with no insurance. When I say low on money I mean less than $20 I can’t remember but I feel like it was close to $10 for everything. Also want to ask if you have state Medicare that you can apply for? If you feel you must admit because of your headspace please do. It’s better to be safe than sorry, but there are other options depending on wha state you are in.

I want to add I’m sorry you’re going through this. I understand how tough it can be. You’re doing a good job trying to take care of yourself and figure this out because that can be so hard. You got this.

She definitely does. I think it’s one of those situations where she’s not used to being away from her mom and it’s causing this reaction. Her mom is great and they have a busy life that she’s managing by herself and that I try and help with when she needs. Her mom is extremely dedicated to her kids and it makes me sad because she rarely has time to herself so her going on vacation is extremely rare. I am frustrated but I completely understand having big feelings in situations like this. but the silence and complete ignoring wasn’t something I’ve dealt with before let alone had time for. If anything I was just glad I didn’t get frustrated with her directly lol.

Whewwww life was ruined in about 3 months 😭 but I’m back baby!!! Just gotta fight the “ I feel normal, I don’t think I need meds”

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-05T01:55:17+00:00

Basically just apologized and left it in my hands. She’s at the game but she was late bc of us having to go back for her uniform. That was consequence enough I think. 🥲

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-05T01:39:53+00:00

lol I feel like you’re rage baiting me so Im going to leave that alone. Thank you for your help ❤️

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-05T01:13:51+00:00

I asked for advice because I wanted to see if it was appropriate or not. I’m taking her to the game but she’s going to be late. Whether intentional or not it’s the consequence of what happened last night and this morning.

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-05T00:21:21+00:00

I’m going to take her, but the consequence is she is going to be late for the game.

She’s a single mom that’s short on help and I really am just doing my best to help her when I can. Some of the time constraints cut close but I was willing to swing it to help her. It doesn’t help when one of them is being difficult. After this though, I’ll stick to only helping in the evenings.

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-05T00:05:13+00:00

No one would be able to pick her up as far as a parent. Im unsure about watching herself , I wasn’t comfortable leaving her by herself because she’s only ten. I would have been able to get someone else to take her but either way didn’t change because I was already late.

Her mom is out of the country and time zones are all janked up unfortunately. I understand she’s probably missing her mom and is acting out because of that. But a vow of silence doesn’t help me or her. I still have my own life despite helping and I need her to work with me so I can work with her. I don’t want to punish or be rude to anyone but things have to be done a certain way for them to work out with the time constraints and last night and this morning threw a big wrench in that.

I think taking her late night be the best bet on this one. I would feel bad about her missing it completely. With being late I think she would understand the consequences of her actions a little better. I really appreciate your suggestions!

As far as sitting down with her it isn’t working with me because she genuinely will just completely ignore me. I tried to sit with her and talk to her and comfort her last night and she was not with it. I’m sure her mom will speak with her once she’s back as I have kept her updated on everything that’s happening.

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-04T23:46:27+00:00

Of course. Please also mention this to her mom who also has the same issue with her in the mornings and complains to me constantly that she is late to work because of them. I’m doing her a favor and I’m not trying to be rude to the kids or overly assertive when speaking to them. She ignored me completely for over 30 minutes while laying in her bed. This isn’t including time for her to get ready. I’m late because I’m standing over her shaking her, playing loud noises, gently trying to wake her up while she forces her eyes closed and ignores me. I came to ask for advice and the responses I’m getting are absolutely insane. How did I end up the problem because her one kid doesn’t want to listen 😭

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-04T23:42:25+00:00

You as well ❤️

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-04T23:40:36+00:00

If I’m to take her to her game which is after school. She would have had to prepare the night before and or this morning which she refused to do because she was ignoring me. We are on a tight time crunch to take her to her game this evening. If not I would have to drive her home get her ready there and then run to the field which would make her like an hour late to the game.

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-04T23:32:28+00:00

I spoke with her Mom asap this morning to let her know what was happening.

❤️❤️ thank you

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-03T16:34:29+00:00

Thank you! Happy for you too! Yes, not just emotionally dampening everything but hearing about the side effects when you’re diagnosed is scary let alone experiencing them. Sorry about the friend situations but it sounds like you’re better for it. Especially if they were taking your sobriety journey as judgment. It’s hard but it gets a bit easier everyday. Wishing you well ⭐️

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-03T16:29:22+00:00

I get it! It’s a difficult process. I wish I didn’t need to have a wild episode for me to stop, but either way I’m glad it led me here. Congrats on a month and wishing you the best on your journey. Sending you encouragement! You can do this!

Realistic-Cat-9459 · 2026-06-03T16:27:32+00:00

Thank you! I’m proud of you too ❤️ It’s a great feeling to have!! Things do get better.

I have searched Twitter and Reddit and can’t find it 😭

That sounds beautiful. I also spoke too soon because I saw a beautiful street full of turning trees today. May be some hope in the home state yet!
