Thank you CupsofTea.
I'll look into seeing if there are any events nearby, I need to start working on going out more as I seem to be getting more and more anxious about leaving the house. It would be good for me to try get to something like that to support me, thank you.
I know exactly what you mean about trying to keep busy, it is horribly difficult with depression, I try be productive around the house and can have good days with that then I can have a couple weeks of just well, nothing. It does have a nasty feeling of shame coming with it when you're not doing anything productive, kind of like a useless feeling. I've always wanted my partner to come home from working long shifts to not have to do anything round the house etc, and some days I even find that difficult.
What makes you get up and do things to make yourself busy may I ask?
And don't worry, it made sense.
