Knock knock.
I'm so happy to hear you're feeling better. It is *so* hard to remember that it is possible to feel better when the horrible feelings and thoughts are at their worst. I always tell myself I'll make a tape or something to remind me. I know those first few steps are shaky and tentative, but... Well I'm so glad you're finding your way out.
Ugh, work. Once I get behind, I lose even more motivation in a morass of avoidance, and metaphorically hiding under my desk to keep from taking calls. I'd advise against that. :) It's kept me behind all these months after the worst.
Can you avoid looking at the big picture, and break it down into smaller prioritized steps? The big picture is too much to try to take in at once.
