Response to Activities that Trigger Depression
First off…
Let me say this.
I’m grateful for your generosity.
I really am.
It’s just that I’m really struggling to communicate this, and I have failed to do so multiple times.
So I’m showing you this short note instead.
A few months ago, I discovered that I have really high neuroticism.
Like top 97% high.
That being said, I discovered that to avoid this issue and prevent it from affecting my performance at work, my income and day to day functions, I’m avoiding all forms of…
- Sugar and sweets
- Carbohydrates (rice, bread, noodles)
- Junk Food and chips.
- Alcohol
- Sleep deprivation
And every time I avoid this, I’m able to stay functional.
I am able to perform well and I am able to keep my life in order.
But every time I violate this, I just feel horrible.
I’m unable to focus.
I feel depressed.
My thoughts become incredibly pessimistic.
And I lose my self-discipline.
My status goes down and I’m unable to work and I sometimes lose anywhere from $200 to $800 because of poor work performance.
It’s actually taking everything I have in me to resist this.
And I appreciate and respect you.
And I’m showing you this note because I really hope that you understand.
And I’m begging your support.
So I’d like to take a pass on this.
Because I don’t want to resort to losing my cool and upsetting everyone.
And I don’t want to just walk out on all of you.
Thank you for reading.
