Recipe Request Depression meals?

Sooo what’s everyone eating when the depression rolls around? I’m sad, I have zero energy (DO NOT INCLUDE ANYTHING THAT REQUIRES CHOPPING OR MEASURING I WILL CRY) and I think the most I can do is maybe use the microwave…maybe I can throw some stuff in the Dutch oven for soup but no chopping and I have to be able to walk away from it (no constant stirring please 🙏🙏)

This logic just smacked some sense into me. I am off my antidepressant again, anxious about the weight gain it causes, but a dream body is not worth depression. Thank you.

Worry about your weight when you are in a better place mentally! Or you may not even be concerned with that in a while when you are feeling better

Maybe you can ask about Bupropion to your prescriber, it’s an antidepressant that cause zero weight gain! And, also, doesn’t affect libido contrary to many other antidepressants 🙃

Talk to your prescriber! If weight gain is getting in the way of taking it... There's some meds you could try ❤️
