I feel like I'm being hit with a sudden depressive episode. It's so sudden and acute that I don't think it'll last very long--hell, it could just be a normal hormonal dip--but I'm having a hard time dealing with even the most mundane tasks at the moment

I'm so, so sorry to hear that, lady. I've been sucker-punched by my anxiety disorder lately, so I can sympathize.

And although it feels kind of presumptuous to be a stranger telling you this, I'm still gonna say, Take care of you first. You aren't responsible for entertaining us folks in LJ-land 24/7.
