Yeah, so I was doing super well. I was back on my meds, doing my DBT and my PTSD workbooks everyday, exercising, eating healthy, sleeping good, and being productive. 

However, the past 2 days I crashed. I felt an ultimate low. I didn't want to leave my bed. Room became messy, ate like shit, stopped exercising, stopped all forms of self care. Slept like shit. I almost went on for a third day because my brain was just like "hahaha you fucking failure. You did so well. You knew this would happen". 

Instead I turned it around. I created this worksheet and it helped me work through what triggered my depression and cope better with my current life circumstances. Right now I'm feeling good. I'm drinking water, ate healthy all day, and don't feel absolutely drained. I practiced radical acceptance. "I slipped up in my treatment, but recovery is not linear and I am stronger than my mental illness. Today is my chance to turn things around." 

Please give this a try if you're also feel down right now!!!
