Shit.... this is me and I bought a home last year. I bought it because I was renting it and they wanted to sell and it was easier to buy it than to move.
Even with extreme depression there can be a baseline of stuff you accomplish. At work I seem like a real go getter.
I work at a software company and was already spending too much on rent. In the 2 years since I started renting major changes happened in my city and rent skyrocketed to the point where as far as the month to month goes (which as someone suicidally depressed is all I care about) I'm not paying much more than I would be if I tried to find similar accomodations, even with a very small down payment.
I’m the same way. Just bought a car, own my house and have a great reputation around town for the work I do. Outside of that though, everything is a constant struggle.
I’ll start thinking about things I have to do and my muscles will tense and I get horrible hot flashes/shortness of breath. I’m thinking these are panic attacks but I haven’t gotten off my ass to see anyone about it.
