My sister and nephews visited today but it was too much

My sister came and they stayed for 1 hour 20 mins, i was absolutely exhausted. A combination of mental and physical, sitting talking really was too much rn. Afterwards i called my mum and cancelled them coming tomorrow, Monday.

I have so little stamina my antidepressants have just been doubled to 20mg vortioxetine i am so tired. I slept for 3 hours after she left and i will sleep tonight

I had all these good intentions of socialising some, but the reality is completely different i’m not mentally well enough

Just because you are worn out doesn’t mean you should avoid socializing. It just means to do less for now. Over time, you’ll grow more accustomed to it and it will be less exhausting than it is now

That’s ok that you weren’t up to preparing drinks etc. They understand that. I’m sure they were happy to just spend time with you

I know this might sound like it’s too hard but a little bit of exercise might give you more energy…just something I thought of…don’t know if you can or not.
