In reply to Phoning people when you're depressed, posted by janejj on December 5, 2001, at 16:14:59
I know exactly what you mean. it's such small stuff but it seems worse than everything else. I've always had such difficulty calling people, I didn't realize it was probably related to the depression though. when I was younger mom would always make me call if I had a question or problem, "I was old enough and perfectly capable of it". I would sometimes even cry for her to call, she thought I was just to shy or soemthing. I suppose it's alot more than that knowing someone else with depression feels that way. even still, I put off calls until I absolutely have to, or try to get out of it. even to the dr. it's horrible.

> Does anyone else finf that they can't call people when they're depressed. I have three outstanding really important phone calls that i have to make and i just can't do it !! one is for my last pay cheque which the company has failed to send me. One is to cancel a $400 bill which has been incorrectly charged to me and another is to the bank. Why am i having such a hard time doing this. Its so annoying ! Its like i'm scared or something. I wish i could stop being so pathetic. I know i have to do it. Or i wish none of thses stupid problems had occured in the first place so that i wouln't have to deal with them. I know if i do call its just going to be difficult, especially the bill one. Oh life, its so crap aometimes.
