I'm just incredibly apathetic, and would easily spend my weekends sleeping if left alone. It's created a weird tension in my household and I feel like I'm on eggshells constantly.

I've had bouts of depression in my life but usually find my way out of it and most friends etc wouldn't even know. This time has been much harder, I know my brother has mentioned to some friends that he's worried about me. I don't think most friends and family have noticed yet. I find that I don't want to be around anyone and have almost no motivation to do anything. From the outside my life looks great but I just feel awful.
I'm sorry to hear that.

Don't be afraid to talk to someone.

Either a professional or family or friend.

I lost a good friend to suicide in 2016 and it galvanized my friend group to look after each other.

I have had some tough conversations with that group, but it's been wonderful. Nothing like a 6'3" 270lbs man hung you telling you he loves you.

Please look after youself.
