Depressed when I first wake up

I'm prone to eating crap right when i get up . I must have nightmares or something.

I get this often too...I try to watch something that cheers me up!

Hey.

My depression is a lot worse when I first wake up. It's a feature for some people.

For me, it helps to start my day with something pleasant and calming. I'll put coffee on to brew, and while it's making, I spend a few minutes petting and greeting each of the cats, especially mine (corny, I know, but they like it and I do too). Then I drink my coffee in the chair while I browse humor or thinspo or whatever on my phone. Then, after that, I start doing my chores.

Maybe it would help to have some low-calorie snacks on hand for when you get up? You could pick something that takes awhile to eat, like half a grapefruit, or another "project" food. And fill up on hot drinks while you eat. Then when you're done, have something planned to do right away.

If you think it has to do with the quality of your sleep.
If you have the money you should get a new pillow/blankets maybe even a mattress topper, then download a white noise app and a sleep tracker.

If you keep track of what you're doing before bed and how it affects your sleep it may decrease morning depression.
