Sorrow shared is halved, joy shared us doubled. Traditional saying.

Try and get some physical activity, exersize has been shown to boost mood. I'm prone to blues and sunlight on my retina 20 minutes 3 or so times a week really helps. Not through eye glasses or glass but through closed eyelids is ok.

Please don't be hard on yourself. It isn't healthy to be well adjusted in a profoundly sick society.
