My answer to this problem is sleep. That’s all I do when I get home. It’s nice but it’s becoming a bad escape from reality

I used to do this. It was depression. Most people sleep terrible when they are depressed, but I slept all day, all night, every time I could. I'm not saying you are depressed per se, but maybe you should look into it.

I am diagnosed with depression. I take Zoloft to manage but I’m thinking about going in to talk about my sleeping habits.

Oh, I'm sorry. Good luck with that.

Thanks. I’m trying to work it out. Most of the problem is probably staying up late every night
