Or is it “Depression linked to being poor and not affording proper food”?
Not to mention that if you're depressed, preparing healthy food can be a huge struggle because of the effort involved in acquiring ingredients, cooking/preparing the food, and cleanup afterwards.
call me crazy but I find washing the dishes and vacuuming very therapeutic
If it works for you and doesn't hurt you, then enjoy it. I struggle to even shower sometimes when I'm really depressed. Imagining going to the grocery store and everything else involved in making healthy meals is incredibly overwhelming.
to each their own. i’m sorry you’re struggling with depression.
