Doing the same thing (usually unproductive things) each day over and over again and getting the same results is what kills me.
Ive been trying hard to break my routine lately and do something small each day that makes me happy. It usually helps me get through each day when at work i can think, man, after work i'm going to do "x" and its going to be awesome.
Yesterday it was bubble bath. Must have been my first bubble bath in 20 years. I foundout if you smoosh the bubbles on your face then exhale you can blow bubbles with your mouth. It was awesome.

I get ups and downs. With the SSRI I take (Lexapro) it helps and thankfully most days are good. On the down days I just find ways to relax like surf the net, go for a walk/run etc. According to my psychiatrist it is the anxiety from depression which causes it, so I take either Valium or Xanax and it helps, different for everyone though.
