Question by Tree: Does getting rid of clothes that “contribute to my depression” make any sense?
When I’m staying at home doing nothing but being depressed, I usually put on these comfortable yet not too flattering clothes that I somehow believe only help me sink deeper into depression. I think they “encourage” me to feel lazy, drained, to feel bad about the way I look and stay out of sight. Getting rid of them would actually mean getting rid of probably half of my clothes, and I sometimes just like to wear them at home. I know this might come off as ridiculous, but do you think I should give them away and do this thing for myself?
