I Just Want to Sleep and Shut the Whole World Out

A personal story in the experience: I Want to Sleep and Shut the Whole World Out
I am feeling like all I want to do is sleep and hide from the world.

I am tired both physically and emotionally,but more emotionally which for me is worse.

Yes I have clinical depression.

My b/f (who knew from the beginning that I have clinical depression and can get like this)who is used to me being available to chat or talk on the phone most evenings is not saying anything but I sense he is going to soon...and it has only been a couple of days.

There is a saying that goes something like "if you can't handle me at my worst them you don't deserve me at my best".That saying is kind of how I am viewing his inability to understand that right now I just really need to shut down and shut out.

He matters to me,but doing what I need to do to keep going matters to me more,and it should matter to him.

Am I the only one who feels this way??
