When we feel low, it’s harder to make decisions we’d easily make on a good day.
Should I call in sick to work or go anyway?
Should I call a friend or ignore them because I’m not feeling talkative?
Should I workout or give myself a rest?
The issue with making decisions like these when you’re feeling down is that low mood urges us to make short-term decisions which result in us feeling worse. And while we make these decisions which provide instant relief, we’re aware of all the better decisions we could make but aren’t making, therefore making us feel guilty and trapped in perfectionism.
So the first thing to realise when dealing with low mood is that we need to make good decisions, not perfect decisions.
