Depression vs Situational Sadness

[Geezus.Khryst.]

There's sadness, there's depression, and then there's just, being, hollow.. those are the types who've been so emotionally gutted that they become numb. Not that they become cruel or hateful, just that they see things for how they really are. Like the fact that everyone, no matter how close to you, is capable of betrayal if the price is right. So they learn to not set unrealistic expectations on others. And, just.. be..

Im in a house thats not accessible laundry room and sitting room have doors i cant open. I have dwarfism and clips have not been got so im segregated. Im upset and now refusing my meds as i dont feel my health matters. I already have shoulder injury opening the doors. Same house mops floors and then turns the lights off. I yelled at the staff for that level of stupidity. Ive osteopenia. Im now developing depression after a month of no access to laundry. Im 38. My body may look like a child but by no means will i accept we can do the laundry for you when the clip to hold the door back can be ordered. Im even going to go so far as to offer to pay for one myself. I feel like half a person. Im extremely small and this experience day after day is degrading. It has a wheelchair ramp but very heavy fire doors that cant be opened easily. Not wheelchair accessible just on the outside.

I have good coping skills. I spoke to my psychiatrist about a relationship crisis that I experienced several months ago. Now, I see that instead of stonewalling my "love interest, " I should have processed my beliefs, thoughts and feelings in a way that would have elicited questions to him for why he kissed another woman in front of me. It took me months to even change my initial belief that was trying to hurt me. I still can't believe that the obvious reason why someone would do that is to make the other person jealous, because in my case, he had asked me "once" to stop being in love with him. My relationship coach recommends replacing this relationship due to my "love interest" being "immature" and so forth. I'm chatting less excessively with friends, making time to write down my thinking, journaling gratitude, complaining less and my relationship with my love interest is becoming more transparent and viable. I feel more and more closure as he and I talk over the phone on occasion. There was a point that he was showing interest in me, but his initial "rejection" or negativity or discouragement kept taking precedence over my core beliefs on the matter. I've noticed that specifics in the relationship events in my memory become disorganized, leaving me with lack of knowledge on where the relationship is going. It's like shuffling a deck of cards, instead of having them in order of events.
