I saw the following posted as a status update on a friend’s facebook page, and although I can shake myself out of a bad mood for the most part there are times when I really just can’t be bothered.

is it the depressed person’s responsibility to “shake himself out of it” if on certain days he finds it difficult even to climb out of bed ?

The posting of her status was very timely, as at the moment I’m having trouble getting out of bed (not because simply can’t be fucked getting up – but because I can’t be bothered dealing with the day and what it could bring…), and I have been wondering the same thing. Yes? No? Maybe? Just get the fuck over it and suck it up?
