Friends (if I may), how do you find the energy to do things when you're otherwise too depressed to get out of bed? (beehaw.org)

If you're in the UK (and I suspect you're not, but I post this partly to help out others in a similar situation), the NHS have a "Talking Therapies" service for depression and anxiety. You can self refer so there's no need to get diagnosed by a doctor first.

You guys across the pond are so lucky to have the NHS, though I think I've read that the Tories have done their darnedest to destroy it. Two things (at the very least) that should never be run like a business: education and healthcare.

Also water management, that's a big topic in the UK right now. Lots of neoliberal nonsense
