It’s weird. I read it’s called “weekend blues” when you feel depressed through Saturday and Sunday. I’m totally fine at work, but when I think about going home to no plans, I feel sad. And when I try to come up with things to do, such as window shopping or actual shopping, I think, “what’s the point? I accumulate things and then eventually die”. For context, I have begun adopting minimalist habits as I don’t see the point of having a bunch of things (my Beatles collection remaining pretty much untouched, though 🙂 ).

I’m usually pretty optimistic and hopeful, so I don’t know why this thought process has come about. I want to live a long, happy life, doing things I love with people I care about, so I know why I shouldn’t be sad, but I still can’t shake the feeling. Maybe it is actual, however mild, depression? I kind of doubt it because I do have enough motivation to eat well and exercise. But I do have anxiety, and I hear depression and anxiety and depression go hand-in-hand sometimes. I don’t know, I’m just throwing things out there. I’d like to go back to enjoying time to myself. I used to be able to spend so much time alone as a teenager, but now that I’m in my mid-20s, I hate staying home alone for over a few hours. I suddenly feel like I need to be out with people every weekend. I know I don’t NEED to, but I get hit with the weekend blues if I don’t.

Anyway, any ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! 🙂
